Guest wayzing Posted February 4, 2004 Report Posted February 4, 2004 It's nothing to discuss I guess but I just thought I'd share a laugh here. I just watched the Rock/HHH ladder match from SummerSlam'98 for the first time since I first saw it and my feeling right after the match (that still impressed me btw) was quite different this time as I noticed something I didn't see back then. While Hunter sits/lays on top of the ladder DX comes in to celebrate and X-Pac climbs the ladder and starts patting Hunter on his thigh in what looks like a combination of "way-to-go-Hunter" and "I'm right here, man". Anyway Hunter totally no-sells it (being exhausted I suppose) and after an (admittedly short) awkward moment of nothing X-Pac just starts pumping with his arms letting out a big "YEAH!" or something like that. It's such a small thing of course, but it really cracked me up as it made X-Pac look so unimportant.
JoeDirt Posted February 5, 2004 Report Posted February 5, 2004 I'll have to go back and check for that. LOL
Use Your Illusion Posted February 5, 2004 Report Posted February 5, 2004 But X-Pac *IS* unimportant...

Enigma Posted March 4, 2004 Report Posted March 4, 2004 But he's a main-eventer! How can he be treated like that?
Guest Banders Kennany Posted March 8, 2004 Report Posted March 8, 2004 I don't like him, but I still think it would be awesome if he was a surprise enemy for a face. Imagine the heat as soon as his annoying music started up. That would be insane.
ChrisMWaters Posted March 8, 2004 Report Posted March 8, 2004 I don't like him, but I still think it would be awesome if he was a surprise enemy for a face. Imagine the heat as soon as his annoying music started up. That would be insane. What music? His themes after becoming X-Pac have been: DX Theme X-Pac-ized DX Theme. Wussy X-Factor Theme X-Factor Theme 2 (the non-Uncle Kracker one) nWo Theme
JST Posted March 8, 2004 Report Posted March 8, 2004 Imagine... --- Paul Heyman: "Eddie Guerrero, I am SICK of you! (yadda yadda) I have found your NEXT opponent against whom you'll defend your WWE title on Paul Heyman's Smackdown, and here - he - comes!" "YO, YOU DEALIN' WIT THE X-FACTOR!..."
Ced Posted March 8, 2004 Report Posted March 8, 2004 Imagine... --- Paul Heyman: "Eddie Guerrero, I am SICK of you! (yadda yadda) I have found your NEXT opponent against whom you'll defend your WWE title on Paul Heyman's Smackdown, and here - he - comes!" "YO, YOU DEALIN' WIT THE X-FACTOR!..." Now imagine the TSM board's reaction to that on the OAO SmackDown thread. 30 to 40 straight responses of "Ahhh fuck no...."
Matt Young Posted March 8, 2004 Report Posted March 8, 2004 That actually would've been a hell of a match if it was pre-surgery Sean Waltman. Anyway, I need to go back and watch that tape. I know I have the show on tape somewhere, because it was the first PPV I ever ordered myself after seeing the shows for years at various friends' homes or on tape.
Guest Choken One Posted March 8, 2004 Report Posted March 8, 2004 Eddy/Syxx had a nifty little Ladder Match in WCW and another solid straight up match as well...
JST Posted March 9, 2004 Report Posted March 9, 2004 I'll be the first to agree that a motivated and healthy X-Pac can be tremendous. But that's the thing, he hasn't been for years.
LucharesuFan619 Posted March 18, 2004 Report Posted March 18, 2004 Eddy/Syxx had a nifty little Ladder Match in WCW The Eddie/Syxx ladder match deservedly went down as one of the worst in history. They completely messed up everything. I know there's some story about why going around, and I don't know the details, but I remember it being interesting.
SamoaRowe Posted March 24, 2004 Report Posted March 24, 2004 I thought Syxx Pac has had some nice matches in TNA, though I'll admit that I only saw two of them... and enjoyed them both. First one was his X title defense against AJ Styles (ended in DQ) and the other was when he teamed with Styles against Sting and Jarrett. I also have an X-Pac vs Eddie Guerrero match on tape from Spring 2001. I'm pretty sure it was Guerrero's last tv match before being released. It's quite good too.

I just saw it for the first time and apart from an awkward sequense in the beginning it looked fine to me. I thought it was a pretty good match. Bischoff and DiBiase as commentators were completely awful though. They managed to take a lot away from my viewing pleasure. Still, the best Sean Waltman with ladders moment will always be the SummerSlam'98 no-sell that this thread started with.
