DrVenkman PhD 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2008 There seems to be some debate on that. Bryan Alvarez always says "Tonky", but I've been hearing it as Donkey since week 1 of the Honk-A-Meter. I've seen crowd signs that agree with the "Donkey" train of thought. Alvarez also had what seemed like a 10 minute argument with Vinny over whether or not his notes were wrong or they called Jack Swagger "Jake" in his first ECW appearance, plus he always says "Night of THE Champions", so I take both of those into account when calling him wrong.

For a guy that charges $10/mo (or one can argue he charges $5 while Meltz charges $5), Alvarez really doesn't seem to know shit about anything. Luckily, he's pretty entertaining and I need audio to listen to at work. As for the difference of a KO match or a LMS match, you're going to have to e-mail Meltzer about that one.

ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2008 My thought on the LMS/KO difference is LMS can happen everywhere in the arena, while KO can only happen in the ring. That's my thought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheFranchise 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2008 Am I missing something specific? LMS match is a last man standing match, while a KO match is the first person to knock out your opponent wins. I realise they're essentially the same, as if you're knocked out you'd not be able to answer the ten count, but the one major difference is the lack of a count.

The Amazing Rando 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2008 I am fairly certain that an LMS Match means that they have to answer a ten count and that the match can be decided anywhere in the building, while a KO Match, in my line of thinking, means that the other person just has to be knocked out and deemed unable to continue the contest by referee decision, not via any count. So, in essence, certain submissions could be considered able to win the match (such as the sleeper) or any such move that can get the Triple Hand Raise to work, although with the way the storyline is building I'd assume it would mean that the person winning would win using some sort of punch or kick rather than a hold. But who am I kidding, it's going to be an LMS or I Quit match. Fans saw Taker knocked out, so they wouldn't vote to book him in a match he could potentially lose.

I understand that, but it seems he has no answers for a handful of his mailbag questions and continuously has no clue when the next TNA ppv is (for example). I'm sure he's just playing dumb on a lot of it, but it's a minor annoyance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure he's just playing dumb on a lot of it, but it's a minor annoyance. I'm not sure what mailbag shows you're listening to, but he answers almost all of them. As for not knowing when the next TNA PPV is, there have been instances when some of the bigger TNA fans on the board haven't known a PPV is happening, and at one point a PPV thread wasn't started until an hour into the show, such was the lack of awareness that the PPV was taking place.

Downhome 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2008 I listen to every B&V show, I love those guys, but even I admit that there's plenty of times that Bryan doesn't know what the hell he's talking about. I don't fault him for it since he watches so much different shit all the time, but I'm not about to make any more excuses for him other than that fact. There's something at least once a show that I question him about, and more times than not I'm right for questioning him. None of this matters anyway, so whatever.

Downhome 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2008 If they were just going to have Santino lose the title and the streak, they should've done it the very first match he had when it started. They've gone too far with it now, so they have to let it continue for at least a little while longer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd like to see it get one week shy of beating the record and The Ultimate Haas run out and squash Santino in 30 seconds. But they don't have the patience for it to run that long. In any event, they can always go back to the Honk-O-Meter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CBright7831 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2008 WWE is really pushing for Stone Cold. HBK says that if he is picked as the special guest referee, he will screw Jericho, yet weeks later Jericho says the worst option the fans could vote for is Stone Cold Steve Austin. I really hope the fans vote for HBK, but that wont happen. Although it is possible for Austin to lose - he did lose the RAW's Greatest Superstar poll last year.
