Outside of the Wrestlemania match with Shawn, anything involving Chris Jericho.

 

Jericho=2003 overrated wrestler of the year. :cheers:

I'm gonna give my vote to HBK/Jericho from Wresltemania. Many are saying it's the match of the year, but I was bored watching it live and I was bored watching it on tape. Way too much resting, it felt like they were going as slow as molasses, everything was just rudimentary, like a bad 80s match. There, I got it all out, you can stone me now! :)

I must be missing something. What exactly happened to him? 

Nothing much. Only his sister died the day before the show took place.

 

(at least I think it was his sister)

 

Correct.

I remember everyone flaming me in the RAW thread for ripping on HBK v. Jericho 2.

 

It sucked

No arguments here.

 

 

Only problem I have with the bashing is the "Super-run-in-mania" argument everyone had, even though there was one, and the match went on for another 8 minutes.

 

Match was so boring I don't remember ANYTHING besides the run-in that didn't effect the out come.

The hell? Do you have a soul?

Overrated: Brock Lesnar vs. Big Show matches.

 

They were good, but please, it's not like any of them topped **. People were praising how great Lesnar was carrying Show.

Huh? I remember HBK having Jericho beat in the middle of the ring when Orton came down and hit the RKO on a chair. Jericho immediately followed up with the walls and Michaels tapped, but it was semi-clean at best.

I'm going to dig up Scott Keiths rant, because I'm more than sure the run-in was only a little past half-way into the match.

From LOP...

 

"Chris Jericho defeated Shawn Michaels in 24:02. Midway through the match, the show suddenly went to break and when we returned, Coach and Lawler apologized for the goof. During the match, Ric Flair walked out and got into it with Michaels. After not being able to put away Michaels, Jericho got fed up and brought a chair into the ring, only to have Michaels superkick it back in his face. After that, Orton ran in and nailed his finisher on Michaels on the chair. Jericho crawled over but Michaels barely kicked out. Jericho then locked on the Walls of Jericho in the corner of the ring. Michaels struggled and came close to reaching the ropes but Jericho dragged him back into the center where Michaels tapped."

 

Shawn has him beat, Orton interferes (the fact that Michaels kicks out is irrelevant because he had the match in hand), Jericho wins (sorta).

Wow, awful memory. But the maina rgument is Ortons interference didn't help win via tap-out. RKO onmto chair knocks you out, not hurt your back. Jericho couldn't get the pin, so he applies WoJ. HBK makes ropes, but Jericho pulls him back, and wins.

 

 

The match sucked, period. And now I remember it was Coachman going "OMG! INTERFERENCE ALL FUCKING MATCH AND JERICHO BARELY STEALS THE MATCH!"

Even though it was fun, in a crappy 80's sort of way, I can't believe all the praise that Hogan/McMahon got. Sure it was good for Hogan and Vince, but that's still average at best.
