Guest Dmann2000 Posted April 14, 2003 Report Posted April 14, 2003 Okay guys which one is it. The one with Bret is more publicized, at the larger event, but I've heard the one with Owen is technically better.
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted April 14, 2003 Report Posted April 14, 2003 I saw the Owen one where Bret reunited them and it ruled. Sadly I have not seen the Germany Owen/Bulldog match so no comment. BTW from a technical standpoint Bret's was better but Owen was busting out top rope moves which he never did in the WWF against the Bulldog so that match was good too(well especially if it's as good as the rematch that I saw).
Guest dreamer420 Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 Bret vs. Davey from Summerslam 92 was is in my top three best matches in WWF history so I'll vote for it. I don't think I've ever been on the seat of my chair more than watching this classic.
cawthon777 Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 Technically speaking, I might have to say that the Owen match was better - but the Summer Slam match remains my favorite bout of all time.
Guest Choken One Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 From a Techical standpoint...Owen was much better...However.. Bret not only gave DBS his first ***** solo match but in the process elevated him to legendary Status...and that match had more drama and shit...
Guest HartFan86 Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 Bret/Bulldog had MUCH more significant in the long run. And it was a better match, IMO.
Guest bob_barron Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 The Euro title match I gave ****3/4 because of the clipping. The Summerslam 92 match gets ***** with the IYH 5 match getting ****1/4. So I say Bret- but both matches were awesome
DrVenkman PhD Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 I downloaded the full27 minute video file of the European title match off of Kazaa a few weeks ago, and watching it for the first time I thought it was really awesome. It's a tough call, and I haven't seen Bret vs Bulldog in a few months (on the Confidential DVD, my reason for buying it.. previous to that it was the one time I managed to rent SummerSlam 92 in 1992) while I just watched Owen/Bulldog the other day, but probably Bret vs Bulldog.
Guest Dmann2000 Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 The Euro title match I gave ****3/4 because of the clipping. The Summerslam 92 match gets ***** with the IYH 5 match getting ****1/4. So I say Bret- but both matches were awesome And I expected you to be first to respond.
Guest Choken One Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 Has Any one ever then the Hart Brothers Taken DBS to ****+ singles match? The only person that comes to mind is Shawn...On Two Occasions...once at Beware of Dog and again at KOTR...Both forgotten gems. I can't think of any others though...
Guest bob_barron Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 The Beware of Dog match sucks- it's too short with too much resting. I give the KOTR match ****1/2
DrVenkman PhD Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 I could be mistaken but I believe the BOD match has a spot where they botch something and Michaels gets all pissy, which is funny.
Guest Choken One Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 Maybe it wasn't BOD but I know that Shawn/DBS had two great matches...
Guest bob_barron Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 I could be mistaken but I believe the BOD match has a spot where they botch something and Michaels gets all pissy, which is funny. DBS chinlocks him and Hebner tells Shawn to go home and they fight on camera. Shawn then for no reason takes a big bump to the outside- just to be a dick
HurriShane Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 I'd say that his match IC Title match against Bret at Summerlsam was just a little bit better than the European Title match against Owen.
Guest Mulatto Heat Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 I could be mistaken but I believe the BOD match has a spot where they botch something and Michaels gets all pissy, which is funny. Ah yes, the famous Shawn temper tantrum. That actually happened at Summerslam 96 against Vader.
Guest bob_barron Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 BOD was more of an argument with Earl and him taking a bump for no reason.
Guest Dmann2000 Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 I could be mistaken but I believe the BOD match has a spot where they botch something and Michaels gets all pissy, which is funny. Ah yes, the famous Shawn temper tantrum. That actually happened at Summerslam 96 against Vader. Which, showing he has a sense of humor, was then replicated by Shawn and Mick in their match the next month at Mind Games to get all the sheets writing.
DrVenkman PhD Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 Speaking of Vader, I think it's funny how the Survivor Series 2002 DVD's "Poster Gallery" uses the prototype poster for 96 with Vader's head where Sid's ended up. Poor screwed over Leon. As for the other HBK/DBS matches that weren't at Beware of Dog, there was one from 1992 on Fox's SNME where Shawn took the IC belt. I had to watch that on a small black and white TV at my friends because their dad got mad and ripped the regular TV's electric cord off (listen to your parents, kids!) and I really have no memory of it... if I did, it would be from a really markish standpoint anyway. Then there's HBK vs Bulldog at One Night Only, which might actually be a good match but, even though I like Shawn, the match pisses me off so I never enjoy it (if you don't know, right before the match Davey dedicates it to his deathly ill sister.. and loses).
TheOriginalOrangeGoblin Posted April 15, 2003 Report Posted April 15, 2003 One Night Only is their best match but it ROYALLY pisses me off. Just how Shawn & DX completely bury bulldog with shawn throwing Bulldog's brace at his deathly ill sister. What a class act HBK is...
Guest Choken One Posted April 16, 2003 Report Posted April 16, 2003 Is That where DBS Jobbed? THAT'S the match I was talking about...
Gert T Posted April 16, 2003 Report Posted April 16, 2003 Its about the fifteenth vote for it, but I would say Bret too, speaking of Confidential DVD, don't you all hate how the WWE will put one sweet bonus match per DVD? (I believe Rebellion 2002 has that One Night Only match with DBS vs. HBK.)
Guest eiker_ir Posted April 16, 2003 Report Posted April 16, 2003 what u mean HBK took a bump to the outside for no reason? what did he do?
Guest Choken One Posted April 16, 2003 Report Posted April 16, 2003 I think...My Memory is Shady... Didn't he do a A cross body to whatever Manager DBS had at the time unscripted?
DrVenkman PhD Posted April 16, 2003 Report Posted April 16, 2003 speaking of Confidential DVD, don't you all hate how the WWE will put one sweet bonus match per DVD? (I believe Rebellion 2002 has that One Night Only match with DBS vs. HBK.) Armageddon 2002 has Edge vs Angle vs Benoit vs Eddie from SmackDown, which is better than anything on the PPV.
Guest kane3212321 Posted April 16, 2003 Report Posted April 16, 2003 Bulldog goes for a leg lariat and HBK decides to throw himself out of the ring even though he obviously missed. Vince tries to cover it saying it was a bad camera angle so they switch to another it's even more obvious he missed by a foot and Shawn bumped for no reason. Then later in the match HBK "tries" a springboard clothesline jumps in and falls straight down.
The Dames Posted April 16, 2003 Report Posted April 16, 2003 The bonus matches are the reasons that I buy any of the WWE DVD's that aren't PPV's these days.
