Buehrle>Wood Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 QUOTE(Shadows @ Jun 26, 2007 -> 01:58 AM) Yeah because im sure its so hard to find a Benoit match from their archives.. No one is trying to be overly critical like GPratt said, but this is a special, I want to see some of the best of Benoits matches We still got 5 more hours of this with ECW and SD!. I'm sure there will be plenty of good ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregory Pratt Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 They're going to devote ECW and Smackdown, too? Not saying that's too much. I haven't watched those shows in years so I didn't (don't) know if it's common practice to give Tribute Shows on all three. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregory Pratt Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Interesting trivia: Dean Malenko is credited as being the inventor of the Crippler Crossface [1], Goldberg's Jackhammer [2] and the Dudley Boyz' Dudley Death Drop [3]. I didn't know that. QUOTE(Brian @ Jun 25, 2007 -> 08:08 PM) They did when Eddie died. Okay. I keep in touch with PPVs and writeups nowadays. Thanks.

Brian Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 This match reminds me of when WCW's main event scene was crap, their undercards were awesome with Jericho, Benoit, Eddie, Malenko, Rey, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Hog Wild was bad in terms that it was in front of thousands of drunk bikers who don't give a crap. If that match was in front of a full arena of wrestling fans, it would of been better. Poor Malenko, first Eddie and now Chris. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno, I wish they would have shown more matches.. they have shown what, like 4 parts of matches so far and there is a little over an hour left.. Ide expect two more matches, and im sure one has to be when he won the title (WCW or WWE, either one would be good) Edited June 26, 2007 by Shadows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That may just be protocol. At least I hope it wasn't like that. Wrestlecrap boards say the report out of Atlanta is that it maybe a homicide after all.

fathom Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Reports out of Atlanta now are that it's being investigated as a murder-suicide, with Benoit killing his wife last night, and then taking his own life today.
