tekcop 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2007 That whole ending to that match ruled. The running 450 off the apron, the no-turnbuckle Sliced Bread, and then a perfect Swanton from Jeff for the finish. That was awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Just call me Dan 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2007 That Swanton was extra swank tonight. Haven't seen that move look so good in a long time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rendclaw 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2007 The Dudleys were never good promos. Anyone can do "Your mom is a whore" rants for 15 minute and piss the crowd off. Taz was never great at promos either. Oh, I used to mark out like a little bitch when The Dudleys and Taz were cutting promos. I haven't watched any of their promos since like.. 2002, so maybe if i go back they won't be as fantastic as i thought. Taz cut great promos back in 1997, on the Pitbulls and Chris Candido. Those "torn towel over the head" promos made me an instant Taz mark right on the spot. That, and him punking out Paul Varelans in 1996. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spaceman Spiff 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2007 These shots of London's SSP were posted over at DVDVR. I'm guessing these must have been from the West Coast feed of the show, because the live airing didn't have the replays of the move. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

haws bah gawd 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2007 Paul London has just disgusting agility. I guess Vince has decided to let him be the exclusive user of the move in the company. It was even mentioned in the issue of WWE magazine with Mr. Kennedy on the cover that the move is banned, so kudos to Vince for letting London continue to use it. That whole 6-man tag was great. If they would just do Shelton / Rednecks vs Hardy / Londrick every week for eternity, I would be happy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2007 They replayed it at the end of the match, Spiff. It all happened so fast during the match so they showed what happened afterwards. I don't like how TheScore's feed just showed a pink screen during what sounds like should have been a HHH technical difficulties screen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exslade ZX 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2007 Hmm, I don't recall my feed showing the replay of the SSP. They only showed it once. And the move was so fast/covered such a wide area, the camera was simply a still shot in the center of the ring for half of the replay. So it happened quick, but they did show it once.

Spaceman Spiff 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2007 I remember the replay from the hard camera (i.e. the 1st half of that first video), which had London down in the corner, but I don't remember seeing the replay from London's side of the ring (the 2nd video).

DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2007 Spiff, I might be confused here, but isn't the 1st gif the hard camera spot slowed down COMBINED with the end of match replay, also slowed down, with the second gif being just the replay from the end of the match? They appear to be the same thing (and if nothing it going slow, forgive me... animated gifs tend to animate very slowly on my work computer). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not saying that they were the best ever or anything, but they always brought extreme heat (no pun intended). Same with Taz. His backstage promos were amazing.

Spaceman Spiff 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2007 Yeah, 1st .gif is the hard angle shot, followed by another angle from London's side of the ring (slowed down). 2nd .gif is that same shot from London's side of the ring (in regular replay speed). The 2nd .gif replay is the one I don't recall seeing. I did see the hard angle replay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hunter's Torn Quad 0 Report post Posted October 2, 2007 Just to give WWE another kick in the crotch: RAW RATINGS DROPS AGAIN AS THEY NEAR THE 3.0 MARK by Dave Scherer Monday's Raw did a 3.2 cable rating, which is down from the previous week's 3.3. The show did hours of 3.10 and 3.26, so this week actually did a 3.18. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RedJed 0 Report post Posted October 3, 2007 To be expected with MNF back in the hunt again. Within a month, they will probably not be hitting 3.0s and will hover in the high 2's possibly. I just am thinking with Cena out, UNLESS they pull a hell of a compelling followup champion and scenario/title program from that, they are going to lose some viewers overall. Other than a few spots, I thought last night's show was crap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

haws bah gawd 0 Report post Posted October 4, 2007 More importantly, the ratings have not improved since HHH returned. BUT IT CAN'T BE HIM! By WWE logic, that means he hasn't been on TV enough. Next week HHH will make a run-in in every match and proceed to bury the entire roster Wrestlecrap.com added this last week: Wrestlemania 24 Match HHH vs The Entire Tag Team Division and a Tank Not much to say here. With no discernable opponent slated for the big one, WWE has opted to instead book the Game against every single tag team on both brands, and a fully armored tank. From there, all the Tag teams, in a time saving move, will all pedigree themselves, whilst HHH commandeers the tank, runs them all over with it, then destroys it with a sledgehammer tipped with a warhead, before returning to the ring to give the now one, flattened, gelatinous blob containing all 8 men a DEVASTATING ARN ANDERSON SPINEBUSTER...only to then pry them all apart, and individually pin them, all while *obviously* putting them over. You see, HHH thinks about the FUTURE. Well, a future where he pins new people. Just because. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That and Eva La Rue continues to show off her wonderful cleavage on CSI:Miami. I'm sure the last part had nothing to do with it but it briefly caught my attention when I was flipping back from the football game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
