Art Sandusky Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 This Monday, I'm going back to reviewing Raw for the main site. So anyone who avoids the WWE folder, here's the announcement for you too. http://www.thesmartmarks.com New layout, at least an attempt at new effort, and trying to diversify! And those who don't watch anymore, maybe this can make you a fan again. I'm going to avoid smarky smarkerson OMG STIFF tendency bullshit and just lay down what I thought of the show.
Your Paragon of Virtue Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 Nah it won't make me a fan again. Sorry.
Black Lushus Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 you mean the OMG MMA ACTION RULZ D00DZ from No Way Out didn't bring you back?
Art Sandusky Posted February 23, 2006 Author Report Posted February 23, 2006 It was a great match for other reasons.
Art Sandusky Posted February 23, 2006 Author Report Posted February 23, 2006 In fact, saying that it was great because of other reasons (because it was apparently great in the MMA manner as well, but I know nothing about that stuff) says a lot about its cumulative effect making a good match. Sort of verbalizing too much, so I'll just leave it at ****1/4.
Black Lushus Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 I wouldn't know...haven't seen it yet.

Your Paragon of Virtue Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 Yo BL and Art, what match do you speak of? I haven't really followed Pro wrestling much at all in years. I mean I keep up with certain things, like when Benoit and Eddy got the titles or how they're pissing all over the latter's grave, but what's this MMA match at NWO you speak of? Enlighten me please.

Enlighten me please. like I say, I didn't catch it, but apparently the UT/Angle match had a lot of MMA type stuff going on in it and it was a close to 5 star match (not JUST because of that, but it helped).
Your Paragon of Virtue Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 Oh okay. I remember they copied a finish from a very famous mma match back in 2002, where Taker tapped out to a triangle choke while giving Angle a last ride. In MMA it was a little different as the guy who was in the choke lifted the other guy, passed out, dropped him, and they were both knocked out. Taker saw it and being the big mma fan he is, I guess he had to use it. So I guess it makes sense that he decides to try some of that stuff again, with a guy like Angle who is a really good grappler and would have a knack for that sort of thing.
BUTT Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 What's this thread about. Don't tell me you've got Spoon on ignore!
Your Paragon of Virtue Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 who is Sensei John Kreese? he's been around longer than me but I'll be damned if he has any sort of identity or distinguishable personality.
Mik Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 Don't some drunks need a ride on your little scooter, queer?
Your Paragon of Virtue Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 Don't some drunks need a ride on your little scooter, queer? Who are you talking to?
Your Paragon of Virtue Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 Also, I watched the match and it was pretty damn good, MMA stuff aside. If Pro wrestling had stuff like that on a regular basis I'd watch again, though I've heard that one was a 'diamond in the rough' so to speak. They don't get that creative all the time.
Detox Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 I am looking forward to the reviews Kotz, adding humor is always great, I really look forward to seeing you polish the turd that is WWE Raw
BUTT Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 who is Sensei John Kreese? he's been around longer than me but I'll be damned if he has any sort of identity or distinguishable personality. Pull up. Stop. Rims still spinnin'. Niggaz is talkin' greasy?
The Czech Republic Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 Oh God, that show was awful. Salute Your Shorts, man.
BUTT Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 I actually considered that first, but I couldn't find a good picture of Ug. But I'll rectify this situation for you, Mr. Republic, since you were the one who encouraged me to have an avatar. But not now. I'm too tired. As for me not having a personality or identity, I should say that I have actually been worse in the past. Back two years ago when my name was "Prez", I think I actually had a negative amount of personality. But I changed my name in honor of my favorite Karate Kid villain and now I'm just fairly, not extremely, boring. I also would like to say that ideally I would be much meaner in my posts, not like a MikeSC mean, but a Sandman-type mean where I can flame people and call them fags and other derogatory names. But I just don't have it in me.
Darth Vader Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 I thought you were switching to Geico. What a let down.

Matt Young Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 Oh okay.

I don't know about No Way Out, but that SD match wasn't all that great. It was good, but probably 3 1/2 stars at best.
Lord of The Curry Posted February 23, 2006 Report Posted February 23, 2006 The NWO match smoked their Smackdown match six ways from Sunday.
