ChrisMWaters Posted November 15, 2008 Report Posted November 15, 2008 Nice little contrast. 1 punch by Taker equals 20 Jeff punches. ...when Taker had his hair back like that, it reminded me of his "Ministry" look.
Slickster Posted November 15, 2008 Report Posted November 15, 2008 Wow, Undertaker's still got a lot of hair (cf. Shawn Michaels, Ric Flair).
Slickster Posted November 15, 2008 Report Posted November 15, 2008 Jeff Hardy's probably the smallest guy to have ever countered Old School.
PILLS! PILLS! PILLS! Posted November 15, 2008 Report Posted November 15, 2008 You'd think that anybody could counter that move, though. I mean, he's sort of at your mercy before he executes it.
Slickster Posted November 15, 2008 Report Posted November 15, 2008 Big Show appears to have gained some weight back.
Slickster Posted November 15, 2008 Report Posted November 15, 2008 Ladder leapfrog legdrop gets the win.
PILLS! PILLS! PILLS! Posted November 15, 2008 Report Posted November 15, 2008 Big Show appears to have gained some weight back. Si.
Perfection Posted November 15, 2008 Report Posted November 15, 2008 You'd think that anybody could counter that move, though. I mean, he's sort of at your mercy before he executes it. It's actually one of the dumbest moves i've ever seen for that reason. I mean the image is impressive but for the guy to just stand there, while he walks the top rope when he could very easily push him off, is just stupid. Too stupid. Nice match though..but I was laughing at the flurry by hardy only to be laid out by ONE punch by the undertaker. Would have been nice also if taker had gotten into better position for the leg drop. Didn't look like the folks there thought that was the end of the match and was sort of surprised by it.
Slickster Posted November 15, 2008 Report Posted November 15, 2008 Well, Old School is supposed to start with a wristlock that prevents you from countering the subsequent top-rope axehandle.
PILLS! PILLS! PILLS! Posted November 15, 2008 Report Posted November 15, 2008 I guess that's wrestling in a nutshell, though. You do shit that you would NEVER do if you were really in a fight (barring submission holds, of course).
The Truthiness Posted November 15, 2008 Report Posted November 15, 2008 Well, Old School is supposed to start with a wristlock that prevents you from countering the subsequent top-rope axehandle. Exactly, if somebody pushed Taker to the outside while he was in that position, all he would have to do is hold on to the arm, and it would snatch his opponents arm out of the socket.

I was thinking more along the lines of crotching him on the ropes.
DCH Posted November 15, 2008 Report Posted November 15, 2008 I watched it and I'm digging it. It's fresh and it's walking the tweener line of the face/heel story and is working quite well. The facepaint looks very joker like but it's not a problem at all. My only thing is what the fuck is white towel thing he has shoved in his back pocket? I always see it and it's fucking stupid. Just so he has something to chuck in the crowd? Only thing is he's not very good mic-wise, tell Vickie he's gonna go Extreme on her sounded disgusting from my view point.
TheFranchise Posted November 15, 2008 Report Posted November 15, 2008 It was a great main event, it was good seeing Hardy go over Taker.
cabbageboy Posted November 15, 2008 Report Posted November 15, 2008 Yeah this was a good SD from what I saw, since it was delayed here due to UK's loss to VMI (ha!). Jeff vs. UT was a really fun main event and it will be interesting to see if Hardy gets into the title scene again, and if he does if they actually pull the trigger and give him the title.
Twisted Intestine Posted November 15, 2008 Report Posted November 15, 2008 I think after losing to HHH at the last couple PPVs they needed to change his character up to make him seem like a real threat. If they give him another shot now and he loses then it's all for nothing.

Lots of kids wear hankies or something coming out of their back pocket.
DarKnight Posted November 16, 2008 Report Posted November 16, 2008 Hmm, maybe I should watch Smackdown next week, since this show sounds like it has some different kinds of stuff going on, with Jeff being a tweener wearing the facepaint, and from what you guys say, had a good match with Taker.

Having your trousers halfway down your legs and your boxers pulled up high, yes. Hankies in back pockets, no. Only seen that, once, at a gay club. Oh, and Raven.
fazzle Posted November 17, 2008 Report Posted November 17, 2008 I remember CRZ was all about the hanky code.
Spaceman Spiff Posted November 17, 2008 Report Posted November 17, 2008 That was Scott Keith, not CRZ.
fazzle Posted November 18, 2008 Report Posted November 18, 2008 No, it was definitely CRZ. Looking through his recaps right now to find it.
DrVenkman PhD Posted November 18, 2008 Report Posted November 18, 2008 Keith did mention it though. The bullet point of this is it's been mentioned by multiple net recappers.
