KingPK 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2006 Now this is the kind of show I like to put together. A good mix of angle-building promos and good matches that lend the show a good flow. I really think that, with some good buildup, Faqu can be a player in the main-event. The main events were good, though SJ's writing style is kind of jarring to read after everyone else's stuff. It's nice to have Hoff back as a regular character, especially since he owes me a job . Well done, everyone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stephen Joseph 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2006 Sorry that my writing style isn't quite up to par yet. Since coming back I've had some remarkable assistance, and I'm trying to write a bit better. Would help if I had more time ... stupid job Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adam 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2006 Some feedback: - Nice storyline for the SCM. - I'm interested to see where the Zack storyline is going, with the three masked men and all. Good match between Zack and Faqu, which I hope to see again, with a finish this time. - Leon's segments were great too, I've always enjoyed the Krista character, and again she brought the goods tonight. How long will Alix hold onto the 24/7 Title? Who knows. - I'm looking forward also to Bohemoth (hopefully) turning face and getting a big singles push. He's the kind of character I think could move up to main event a PPV or two against a heel champion. A feud with Brock over the Heartland belt would be nice as well. - Speaking of Brock, I think he's the perfect heel for a face champion such as Alf to face on PPV, because the fans can get fully behind Alf, rooting for him to beat the monster. I'm wondering if we may see a Triple Threat in the not too distant future. - Skimmed the Alix segment, but I like that the 24/7 rule is being utilised again. - The Main Event was, well, interesting. I think SJ needs to learn from PR in his descriptive writing. It seems like things are happening too quickly, and it feels rushed. I think if you utilise a little more description and spacing, the matches will seem more flowy overall SJ. Overall, a great show with some sound matches.

King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2006 Tonight, the OAOAST leaves the United States, home of baseball, hot dogs and Iron Chef and travels across the Pacific to Tokyo, Japan, home of sushi, tentacle rape porn and....uh, Iron Chef. Isn't Japan the home of baseball? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tony149 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2006 (edited) One of our more packed shows in sometime. I guess that company retreat to Japan did wonders for morale. Going into the SCM promo I thought it would turn out to be one of my finest yet, but it didn't exactly turn out that way. Still one of my better promos I think. There was more I wanted to do but I got tired and said "fuck it, good enough." Looks like Axel's job may be in trouble. Him kissing up to the board I found humorous. Add me to the list who'd like to see a babyface run for Bo. Digged the match. The thumbs up, thumbs down thingy was awesome. Like Adam, Brock would be the perfect heel for Alf to go up against. And they have history. Also sets up a 3 way. Makes sense to see Ayane get some mic time. The feud between Otaku and Brock far from over by the sounds of it. Loved Hoff's promo, especialy the "LOOK INTO MY EYES" part. About as intensed as a Hogan coked out '80s promo, brother. Good use of the new catchphrase. I'm digging Melody as our female reporter. Trying to interview Rodez with a half eaten baloney sandwich was gold. O'Hara and the GPX weren't the only ones perplexed at Zack's comments. Holy shit! Dan Black in a match! I don't even have to read it to say it's a thumbs up in my book. But I still did. Uh-oh. Black using color trunks? I hope he isn't beginning to soften. Nope. Black still the same wrestling technican we all know and love. Enjoyed it while it lasted. Yes to Black vs. Hoff at LA! Can't wait for that one. Krista in the role of big sister, protecting young Alix? Or hidden sexual desire for Leon Rodez? You decide. Whoa. Eski and Adam both writing a match in one week? I don't think my heart can take it. Been a while since we've seen AJ Flare in action. The segment involving Flex Phillps was great. Not very PC is certain places but the OAOAST isn't about PC. It's about F-U-N-N-Y. Don't think Zack would appreciate the slam on From Justin to Kelly, though. Doesn't he actually LIKE that movie? Alf normally does an excellent job with 8-man tag matches and this week was no exception. WTF? Did I read that right? Did Zack really use NRG? As for the match, good stuff. I've like what Zack has done with Faqu since bringing him and Blonde back. Popick's writing style is a throwback to what the OAOAST style used to be. I'm still not sure why Caboose and Popick are teaming, but holy hell was that a quick match. That caught me by surprise. It was like here's PK, 1-2-3. But I understand Popick's job puts limits on him. Kudos for the cliffhanger ending. MOTN: I was torn between the 8-Man and Zack-Faqu, but will give the 8-man tag the nod because of a clear winner. LOTN: "Because, broken heart or not, if you steal that championship from her I will not hesitate in hunting you down and making OJ Simpson look like Homer Simpson in terms of cold blooded killing tendancies." -- Krista Isadora Duncan Edited April 15, 2006 by Tony149 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Masked Man of Mystery 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2006 I'm still working through the show, but I would just like to make sure people notice this because I've seen it a few times in recent weeks. His name is Otaku, not Okatu. I'm not upset, I just don't like when people screw it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patty O'Green 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2006 That reminds me of when Tony used to call Drek Stone Derek Stone, and how NYU knew he arrived when Tony finally spelled his name correctly. Funny times! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Adam 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2006 I agree. Wow, I actually left feedback. Now Rob and Hoff are obliged to do the same, considering I hear it from them every week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
