Thoughts on the Iron Man Match

Recommended Posts

I just finished watching the Iron Man match, i'll say this: i found it an enjoyable and worthwhile use of 60 minutes of my time. I think probably why i found it so enjoyable was because i went in to it with quite low expectations, as almost everyone round here had been slating it as being pretty poor.

 

I thought it told a good story of Kurt having to battle up hill the majority of the match and coming very close to winning with the fianl ankle lock but having victory snatched away from him. But eh what do i know?

Im sure everyone shits on first half of Bret/HBK iron man and still give it ****. So why isn't SK allowed to?

 

Because he's dumb?

Canadian?

Really ugly?

Has a bad hair style?

Wears out of date wrestling shirts?

Because he wears wrestling shirts in public period?

Because he's fat?

Because he...

 

Oh fuck it, Scott Keith is the biggest waste of Canadian life. MUST I post his pictures from the NHB Folder to remind everyone who they look to for ratings?

Oh...eh.....

 

Dames is sometimes too harsh.

 

SK is sometimes too generous.

 

So I would average them together, although I go by Dames TNA ratings more than anyone elses.

WP-Your opinion of Keith's looks doesn't mean a thing. So you're telling me I should automatically throw out someone's opinion on matches because of their "bad" looks? That's pretty low and completely nonsensical. Not saying this is your intention but your post reeks of making yourself feel good by jumping on the " I hate Scott Keith bandwagon"

I should edit that to seem not so hateful because SK is one of few people to add stars to that is known by most people.

 

But can ANYONE say with a straight face I respect him after seeing those pictures?

I like and respect the opinions of most of SKs work, but he's biased towards certain wrestlers.

 

I knew that SK was gonna give the match ****+. Why ? Cuz it's Angle and Lesnar, he doesn't need any other reasons. He's also the same with Benoit.

 

The thing is, he can be VERY cynical.

 

Anyways, most of the time, I can actually AGREE with the opinion of SK and I enjoy reading his rants and sometimes laugh at the jokes. Sometimes, he can come off sounding like an asshole though, and that's where he makes enemies among people on the net.

He won't touch wrestlers at this time because he STILL thinks WWE will hire him.

 

He's tried reportdly about 5 times and never got a call back or even a interview I don't think...

 

He gets less critical of HHH when application time comes.

 

He's such a hypocrite, he tells them they are wrong and yet will backpedal for the chance of a job working as Gerwtiz fanning boy.

See, you don't have to worry about that from me because I'm too damn honest to ever work for WWE.

 

I'm biased toward Lesnar and Angle, but still gave it what i felt to be a fair rating

True, although if every RAW rant ended with DIE SHANE, DIE VINCE, DIE STEPH, DIE GERWITZ, DIE HHH, I'd get sick and tired of it.

 

Besides, he should lobby and kiss the Jarrett's ass, seeing as he loves TNA so much :)

Could you imagine SK as head booker in WWE.

 

I think that would actually be GOLD BABY~!

 

Obviously, I know it won't happen, but just think what would happen if it did.

 

I sure wouldnt complain about Benoit being given gods push.

Brock Lesnar is passing Kurt Angle in terms of psychology and selling. This Iron Man match was the final straw. Lesnar did, indeed wrestle a far smarter match then Kurt. He involved the fans early, used the DQ spot to hos advantage, sold better on the long term and his movements made more sense in the greater context of the match. Watch Kurt fall apart with 5 minutes left and put the Ankle lock on the WRONG ANKLE. Watch him forget the injuries he should be selling.

 

Mark my words, guys. Brock is getting very close to Kurt, and it won't be long.

COTC is Clash of the Champions.

 

Thank you Dmann2000 for sending them to him, because I never saw reviews for either show.

Please, SK couldn't handle that pressure, That's why he is a NET writer...hides behind that screen acting as if he knows what to do...On his typewriter, egos and polictal games don't exist...

 

He would put Angle/Benoit as MAIN EVENT for 8 months straight...while ratings SHIT BOMB.

 

People always overlook the fact the "greatest wrestling series" of all time was a commerical FAILURE.

Most of their matches were on poorly promoted cards and were given little to no hype.
