is that Tazz/Tanaka/Awesome match any good?

 

S. Series 02 is the last PPV I saw before going on my two year hiatus from watching any PPVs or Raw/Smackdown on a consistent basis.

Can't wait for the "I Quit" segment and the ECW PPV! Should be another solid month on WWE24/7.

If that is the Big Ones lineup, good stuff. The Boston Garden show has Savage-Steamboat (taped after the throat angle but before it aired) and, IIRC, Bulldogs-Hart Foundation in two very good matches, plus Piper vs. Muraco. And Anarchy Rulz 99 might be ECW's best PPV ever.

I might go with Heatwave 98 as ECW's best PPV. But that Anarchy Rulz PPV is also pretty strong. I'm still a bit pissed at that Sabu/Justin match however, bah. That PPV also had ECW's biggest crowd ever I think.

Boston Gardens - November 1, 1986

 

Oh shit Savage/Steamboat. Cant wait till next month.

 

This match is on the Bret Hart DVD...Right? If so, I would rather watch it off that. 24/7 is too damn pixsulated..

flairfan, do you mean the channel or the website? I don't have artifcating problems with 24/7 On Demand with the exception of programs over 3 hours (then it gets questionable near the end) or when I fast forward and then hit play (a general problem with our OnDemand system).

I get that sometimes not alot though. It really pisses me off when Im recording. I'm most definetly in favor of them spliting the PPV's into two viewings. Vengeance 2003 looked pretty damn good, and no picture distortion.

Can't wait for next month. Survivor Series 2002 was an awesome PPV with great action, and i'm pretty sure the Feb/'97 Raw episode included the first ECW invasion.

The ECW Raw isn't until 2/24 though, so we'll likely have to wait until July's update since they seem to only be moving at two MNWs per month.

It should be the January 27th edition this Wednesday (which falls under the June theme), followed by the February 3rd episode on June 13th.

 

June 27th will be the February 17th episode (they skip non-compete weeks so goodbye 10th) but that will probably be the official beginning of the July schedule.

the only thing I really can't wait to see is the Raw featuring Bret's famous tirade. I can never get enough of that. If I remember correctly, didn't he and Sid have a series of matches that night that kept getting broken up by Steve Austin before finally having a cage match that got broken up by UT? Or am I blending two Raws together?

I made the same mistake when glancing over upcoming Raws. I think the February 17th Raw is the Sid vs Bret multiple-start Raw, then sometime before Mania 13 they have a cage rematch where Bret goes nuts.

I just started watching the Boston Garden show. Can anyone explain to me what the deal is with these arena shows that have such pointless matches that go on forever? Seriously, the opener of this show is Bob Orton vs Billy Jack Haynes, and it's been going for literally 20 minutes now...

I have everything in this update, but still no roundtable.

 

I rewatched the Rock-Foley I quit match and man those were sick chairshots. Michael Cole was awful on commentary, thank God Jim Ross was feeding him lines.

 

The Nitro from the last update was before a Clash of the Champiobns, did Benoit and Sullivan had another wild brawl like they had on Nitro ? It wasn't very WCW-like, with their family friendly policy and all, to have them fight in a crowd of drunken idiots. There was so much chaos that no one in the crowd let the camera crew and Woman pass through. She had to hit people with her shoe and you could hear her yell "Move Goddamnit !" on screen. Wild.
