ECW TV
Sandman in wrestling attire is ridiculous. Wearing some kind of MVP jumpsuit. Funk vs Snuka in a steel cage about to start. |
Joey Styles should be in the hall of fame.
|
Sweet. New Legends of Wrestling Roundtables were added. Major Moments and Wrestling in Texas. My night is all set.
|
Halloween Havoc '97. Rey Mysterio vs Eddie Guerrero for the cruiserweight belt. Even the crowd was super hot for that match. Multiple "Eddie sucks" chants. Probably gonna be the best match on this card.
|
Royal Rumble '89 in Houston, Texas
Betting it sucks, but maybe I will be pleasantly surprised. It has Arn and Tully on the card so how bad can it be? |
Gorilla Monsoon used the "irresistible force meeting the immovable object" line for the Jim Neidhart and Dino Bravo confrontation during the 2/3 Falls 6-Man Tag and it was much less epic than when he used it at WrestleMania III.

About to start King Of The Ring 1994.

PROGRAMMING UPDATES
They have a really good 2 hour "Legends of Wrestling" Roundtable over the history of RAW that was filmed back around the RAW1000 special with Okurland, Patterson, Hayes, Road Dogg, and Jim Ross that is available OnDemand today. Also, today they will be airing/adding the SD! that has the Brock/Angle Ironman match. On top of all that, they will be airing/adding the "nWo: The Revolution" documentary. Fuck, I love WWE Network. On-Demand content is sometimes choppy, but the live stream is usually always good. Really praying it works fine at WrestleMania on my X-Box so I can watch it on my TV. I've been away from home all week, and WWE sent me another e-mail about fixing the problems with the XBox 360. |
JS FunFact: My favorite Hulk Hogan match is Hogan/McMahon from WMXIX. About to rewatch it now on-demand and streaming on my laptop thanks to Vince McMahon's most recent proof of his genius...the WWE Network. "IT'S OVER THE TOP!"

Seriously, I want to give Vince McMahon a big bear hug.
My entire life, he has delivered moments and memories that make me feel like this: http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f7...5747e2f8e8.gifhttp://img155.imageshack.us/img155/3...trut4rx4qh.gif WWE Network makes me feel like I'm leading a parade of memories through main street of my brain. http://www.wwe.com/f/styles/ep_trend...20_mcmahon.jpg <marquee behavior="alternate">http://i.imgur.com/46YNMas.gif</marquee> <marquee behavior="alternate">http://i.imgur.com/46YNMas.gif</marquee> <marquee behavior="alternate">http://i.imgur.com/46YNMas.gif</marquee> <marquee behavior="alternate">http://i.imgur.com/46YNMas.gif</marquee> |
Whenever I turn it in I find a gem of a show. Random house show from 86 that reinforces how good Steamboat was
|
Watched a couple of Legends of Wrestling roundtables, and fuck me Flair is annoying. Never lets anyone get a word in. Other than that, love that particular show and I love this fucking network.
|
I watched a few of those last night as well. Flair definitely got annoying.

I loved listening to Jim Ross though. Passionate and knowledgeable and knew exactly the insight a fan would be curious about. Hope they do more of these down the line as it seems most were recorded a few years ago. |
The only thing that gets annoying about Jim Ross is the constant football analogies. I'm love football as much as anybody, god damn, not everything has to be turned into an analogy about coaches/players/running backs/quarterbacks/d-lineman/etc.
|
Just watched Rumble 93 again. I still don't know why Savage tries to pin Yoko.
|
Savage's whole gimmick is that he was batshit insane in a much more serious/scary way than even Ultimate Warrior. Makes sense to me in a nonsensical kind of way.
|
I love how Flair comments about TNA "TNA, what's that", then about a year after that was filmed, himself, Foley, and Tazz were all there.
|
He may still have no idea of what TNA is after working there for a few years.
|
No Way Out 2001. So great. Forgot about the 4 way for IC title with Y2J Eddie Benoit X Pac.
|
Slamboree 97 going through the WCW PPVs until maybe Starrcade where the nWo storyline should have ended.
|
Just watched the 2 hour Raw roundtable, and per usual, JR had some great insight. PS Hayes is also really good on there. He's a little over the top at times, but overall his insight and contribution is very much relevant, unlike fucking Flair.
|
I hate it when Flair and Foley are both on because Foley wastes time trying to make Flair understand his arguments.
|
Judgment Day 2000, really good show, loved this one back in the day.
|
WCW Halloween Havoc 1998.
its really odd seeing Jericho & Raven coming out to their WWE Themes. |

you need to watch the WWE Triumph & Tragedy of World Class documentary from a few years back to better understand it. The Von Erichs were like gods in Texas. They were doing stadium shows long before Wrestlemania did it. Check out some of their big supercards from Reunion Arena/Cotton Bowl/Texas Stadium.

Nah, seems like it would be way too boring. Thanks, though.
Also, Wrestlemania 19 is up now, and Limp Bizkit is in it. Pretty awful, but they're there. |
They were introduced as "WWE's favorite band in the world" or something. Ridiculous.

it is however a documentary that is must see. |
I've been watching a lot of WWF I haven't seen in several years.
Wrestlemania 9 was nowhere near as bad as its reputation, very enjoyable show, excep Hogan at the end. Wrestlemania 8 was fanfucking tastic and probably the best WM of all time up until its shitty Hogan main event. Wrestlemania 10 wasn't as good as I remember it being. Owen/Bret was a really good match but not as good as their cage match from later in the year. And I'd say the same about the ladder match. There are no other matches on this card that are worth a damn, minus the main event which is decent and a classic moment at the end when Bret wins. I think that there is a possibility I missed a Wrestlemania in the 20's but I'm not sure, gonna excavate. |
WWE's Greatest Rivalries Shawn Michaels vs Bret Hart
|
Everybody should go watch The Headshrinkers vs The Steiners at WM 9. Really good forgotten match. Just an example of how revolutionary the Steiners were for Pro Wrestling. Though the frankensteiner is botched at the end, it's still a really good match. Also, HBK vs Tatanka wasn't bad except the dumb ass finish. WWE had a lot of trouble putting HBK over at his first solo Wrestlemania's.
