Lord of The Curry 0 Report post Posted November 28, 2004 The unbelieveablely stupid story of two men never tiring out, submitting or pinning each other within the span of an hour negates the story the match had beforehand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Rrrsh Report post Posted November 28, 2004 I think its more realistic than someone losing to a DDT, but since its an IM match its OK. Bret and Shawn have both proven to have stamina before, so I dont think it was tough to believe. Plus matches have gone 60+ in wrestling before, so fans can grasp the concept.

Lord of The Curry 0 Report post Posted November 28, 2004 Fans in that time period could grasp the concept? How? They hadn't done any other Iron Man's before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Brian Report post Posted November 28, 2004 Realistically, neither of those guys had gone a match with each other that, since or before then, had gone that long without a fall. You lose to a DDT, or even a clinched in submission, because sometimes the effort is not worth it if there's a chance over the next thirty or forty minutes you can make up that and more rather reasonably.

Guest Loss Report post Posted November 29, 2004 HHH botches less spots. I'm saying HHH. When's the last time you've seen Jericho mess up a move? Seriously. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Loss Report post Posted November 29, 2004 In 2000, Triple H was having great matches every single night against everyone. For that run alone, he gets my vote. No he wasn't. He didn't even wrestle every single night. Are you willing to call his TV matches good? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Special K 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2004 All of HHH's greatest matches were heavily gimmicked, except the Austin/HHH v Benoit/Jericho. Also, HHH and his Evolution buddies are allowed blood in pretty much all his matches nowadays, which seems to add a star to many people's ratings. Which is dumb.

Guest Brian Report post Posted November 30, 2004 It definately gives it a feel of intensity and drama. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Special K 0 Report post Posted November 30, 2004 Oh, yes. But blood is often the best thing in some of the kicky-punchy matches HHH has. And that's sad. It's a good way to blow off a feud, but why is Evolution involved in maybe 75% of the matches with juicing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
