2003 IWA KODM Review #2

[Guest Jay Z. Hollywood]

Even though I couldn't get to my part of this article, the review of Night 2 of the 2003 KODM is up- so post feedback for Sandman, and even though he doesn't post here anymore, he'll read the replies

I don't really like your style as of late, too much. I enjoyed the IWS, PWG, and older CZW and IWA-MS reviews, and the BSB, Cabana, and Messiah best of reviews, but the latest ones (this, the other IWA-MS review, etc.) seem to have too little substance for me. For one thing, you're not very consistent. You list the highlights of the three-way tag team match, but then do general recaps of all the other matches, with from what they sound like have just as many spots as that match had. Work on getting a consistent recapping style down. As I said, I enjoyed your older reviews better.

 

And also, coding/formatting is your friend. Like maybe do italics for the match stip (i.e. Heavyweight Title match) and leave bold for the participants, but doing two or three straight lines of pure bolding is annoying. Or maybe capitalize the names of the participants. Just vary it and see what works best, but as of now, the coding leaves a fair amount to be desired, although it is good to see that you used some. I do like the criteria you use to judge the matches.

 

A quick addressing about one thing - I'm sure some people still hold it against him, but generally the CZW locker room has no heat with Pain anymore, and only a select few ever did when he left. Hell, Zandig was trying to bring him back. Rebels had positive words about him. Time has healed the wounds pretty well. I'm sure when he jumped a lot of people hated him for it, and from what I understand he had a lot of heat in the months leading up to his jump, but if that's the case, whose to blame him for leaving a locker room in which he was hated? I'd do the same damn thing.

Um, Barber- *I didn't write this.*. As I wrote in italics at the very top of the review, and as I said in this post.

Ahhh, OK. Well Sandman, still take that feedback for what it's worth, then. I generally look forward to your reviews, as I said, so I just clicked on the link right when I saw it and started reading it.

I mark for random Dave O'Neill slams.
