Guest Retro Rob Report post Posted July 28, 2003 Keith generally rates any match with Benoit and Eddie at least **** regardless of it's quality. Hell, he rated their match in Dec 2002 ****3/4 IIRC. He had to be off though, I mean ***1/2 for a match featuring a green rookie and a broken down hasbeen? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest BionicRedneck Report post Posted July 28, 2003 Another great, super-intense match between Angle & Lesnar, and Show wasn’t in it enough to bring it down. And there’s no better champion than Angle. **** He is on drugs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest nWoScorpion Report post Posted July 28, 2003 I gave Ut/Cena **3/4, and a review of it by me is available in the Smark Krew folder NOW. (Cheap plugs always work) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest wwF1587 Report post Posted July 28, 2003 I think he was super positive about Vengeance so he can absolutely tear up Raw tonight. and RAW will probably deliver just the show to tear the hell apart Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Anglesault Report post Posted July 28, 2003 I hope that Kurt Angle holds the WWE title until Wrestlemania XX. When I think about it though, I don't know if I like the idea of Kurt losing the big one at Wrestlemania two years in a row. Right now, Angle should be the man to carry the company. He's good both in the ring and on the stick. He has all the tools. If he can stay healthy, I see no reason why he shouldn't be able to take the ball and run with it. I'd rather he lose it and win it back at Mania. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest PowerPB13 Report post Posted July 28, 2003 WWE: "Please forget that we put McMahons in two major matches, had Taker squash Cena, had a really horrible barroom brawl segment, and had Big Show in the main event AGAIN...(throws bone) here's Benoit vs. Guerrero, (throws bone) here's a cool tag title match, and (throws bone) we put the title on your boy...now be quiet." -Patrick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And there’s no better champion than Angle. **** He is on drugs. What was possibly wrong with that match? Everything was beatifully crisp throughout, there were tons of cool spots, and there was a surprising finish. It overshadowed tons of great wrestling throughout the night, and might be the best Triple Threat match the WWE has ever put on. I'd even consider it a MOTY candidate at this point.

It was a spot-fest and it was nothing we hadn't seen before. There was no build it was just spot-spot-spot. Then Angle and Show both got blown-up. The best bit was Lesnar's running Powerbomb on fat man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Aero Report post Posted July 28, 2003 I'm surprised he gave Undertaker vs. Cena ***1/2... From one viewing, I gave it **1/2, but I guess I need to watch it again. Just my opinion, but there is no way that Benoit vs. Eddie from Armageddon is better than Vengeance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Keith rated it ****1/2 or *****, then I'd agree with you, but I'd say **** would be the absolute highest a spot-fest can get if it's a really good spot-fest, and this was a really good spot-fest. -Duo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Mulatto Heat Report post Posted July 29, 2003 I think he was super positive about Vengeance so he can absolutely tear up Raw tonight. He can go right ahead then. Keith generally rates any match with Benoit and Eddie at least **** regardless of it's quality. Hell, he rated their match in Dec 2002 ****3/4 IIRC. SK is a disgusting looking human being and he goes out of his way to be abrasive (with seemingly obvious success), but try to get the facts correct, OK? What was possibly wrong with that match? Everything was beatifully crisp throughout, there were tons of cool spots, and there was a surprising finish. It overshadowed tons of great wrestling throughout the night, and might be the best Triple Threat match the WWE has ever put on. I'd even consider it a MOTY candidate at this point. Tons of cool spots, i.e. spot-spot-spot, which the three (esp. the winner) are famous for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

People have been far too hard on the Big Show lately- he's been doing his job as a monster heel very well. -I don't think he had a point, but it was fun counter-pointing your counter-points to his lack of a point. -Duo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted July 29, 2003 Pretty positive compared to usually... Pity he didn't rate the barroom brawl though. I wanted to hear his views on O'Haire's Bruce Lee impression. And Spanky's dancing...Funaki's drinking...Easter Bunny's bump through the glass. Hell, I enjoyed the brawl. Then again, the barroom brawl is just the sort of throwaway sports entertainment crap I enjoy. Just a pity they didn't throw Tazz in there and have him go crazy on everyone.
