The Critic Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Jan 8, 2007 -> 09:47 PM) Nah, they could always have a hell in a cell match between Rosie and the Donald. Holy s*** that was horrible Honestly, I think that was the single worst thing I've ever seen in wrestling. Worse than the Finger Poke Of Death. Worse than the Shockmaster. Worse than the Gobbledygooker. Worse than the Kane/Katie Vick angle. Worse than Giant Gonzalez, Great Khali and Bastion Booger combined. Worse than the Turkey On A Pole Match in the AWA's dying days. Worse than David Arquette's or Vince Russo's wCw title wins. Absolutely embarrassing is what that "match" was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Donald Trump impersonator defeated a Rosie O'Donnell impersonator after a cake to the face. It wasn't even as funny as that might sound.

santo=dorf Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 The only thing worse is probably the Brisco-Patterson evening gown match at a King of the Ring which involved either a maxi pad or a pair of depends. The crowd was dead from the start and the segment, and once the match started, they couldn't stop booing. The funniest part was when "Rosie" collapsed on the "Donald" and people thought the match was going to be over. The ref took forever to get the count, and "donald" kicked out at 2. The crowd was SOOOO pissed. They started chanting "TNA." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowerCaseRepublican Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 The best part of that Donald and Rosie segment was seeing Ace Steel in a E ring. So glad I turned off Raw and watched ROH's Glory By Honor V Night 2 -- a must see for any wrestling fan. The KoW vs Aries and Strong was amazing as was Marufuji vs McGuinness and AmDrag vs KENTA. I can't wait to get some more cash so I can pick up some more ROH DVD's. For the ROHbots, what are some high quality shows I should pick up? I'm looking at Death Before Dishonor 4, Glory by Honor 5 Night 2, Final Battle 2005, Final Battle 2006 (when it comes out) and Joe vs Kobashi. Any duds there or shows I'm missing?

The Critic Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 I had already forgotten that Mysterio had been the champ for a while. HA! Now I remember how enormous that title belt looked on him, and how I joked that he should have worn one of those little kid replica belts they sell instead.

I remember he signed with the WCW days after winning the title and took it with him.

I don't recall the rest of that show being all that great. Solid for sure, but towards the bottom of the 06 shows. I enjoyed the KENTA/Joe/Dragon main event, but was a little disappointed in it. Better Than Our Best and SuperCard of Honor in Chicago, Death Before Dishonor 4, Unified and GBHV Night 2 would be my top 5 from this year. Of all time would take a lot of thinking.

The Critic Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 Another pretty soild episode of TNA Impact last night, except for the usual lame bits (Kevin Nash, Road Dogg and Billy Gunn).

longshot7 Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 agree about Impact. Looking forward to Final Resolution. And for my own sanity, I think I'm going to stop watching WWE unless I hear something amazing happens. With Rosie v Donald and CM Punk's loss to Holly in the same week, I think I'm done with them.

Going to the E supershow (SD and WWECW) on Super Bowl Sunday afternoon most likely simply to mark out for Punk and hold up a giant sign with an old roommate "Needs More Colt Cabana!" and "Second City Saints!" Totally going to mark for Londrick, Finlay, King Booker, Miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiister Kennedy (Kennedy!), Punk, RVD, Sabu, Sandman, the other EC Dub originals and a hopeful JBL sighting. But another question. 5 must have shows for ROH outside of Death Before Dishonor IV, Glory By Honor V Night 2 (and I'm getting myself the Chicago Spectacular Night 1 from December when it is out on DVD simply because I was in attendance and I love Kikutaro). I want five must haves for my ROH collection so I can build from there. I really want to avoid the dud shows which is why I'm questioning. Are the War of the Wires any good (I or II)?

I read the recap and the Iron Man match seemed like it was really good. Angle vs. Christian promises to be excellent, even with the horrible Tomko lurking around to add his own particular brand of suck to things. I agree that anyone hiring Russo to script anything is a mistake, but it does seem that Jim Cornette is providing a counterbalance to Russo's juvenile stupidity. I shudder to think what TNA would be like if no one bucked up to Russo's dopey booking. We've seen it before too many times, and it's always sucked (even when Vince was supposedly filtering and editing Russo's ideas. I have to wonder if Vince was ever actually doing that, given the moronic ideas he's presenting on TV these days). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a fall every 6 minutes for these wrestling machines. I guess part of the way they did it was to have Joe tap twice to the ankle lock pretty quickly, which kind of makes sense in the context of the match. If he taps to the ankle lock, the ankle would logically be weakened. If Angle slaps it on again relatively quickly, the ankle would still be weakened and sore, so a second tap isn't unbelievable. I'd have to see the match to see if 5 falls in 30 minutes made sense, but in theory it could have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
