Evan (Elijah's brother) who decided to take up boxing is billed at 6'2" so he got the height of those two. Unfortunately, he's a bit rudderless after a rather exposing loss early in his pro career. So he might follow his brother in attempting to turn to pro wrestling soon enough.

I am doing a 1995 rewatch and apparently Dave Sullivan's last WCW program was against Big Bubba and involves Dave's pet rabbit. This is already after they teased during the DDP feud Dave eating rabbit stew while on his date with Kimberly Page. Pro wrestling is just morbid like that. That and ripping off Fatal Attraction was in vogue.

I think I brought this up about a year or so ago: The problem with Jim coming in as the mouthpiece is eventually it became too obvious he was a mouthpiece, and he's carrying too much of the load especially as time goes on. The difference between his previous work pre WWF and then WWF is you wanted to see Jim get his ass whooped as the smarmy heel in the case of the former. Outside of like the match with Lothario to start writing him off WWF TV and getting punched by Shawn Michaels, there wasn't much in the way of physical involvement or interaction outside what a heel manager would typically do cause they didn't do the southern heel heat shit in WWF. That and by like 1995/1996, Cornette was in terrible physical shape. So he probably couldn't do much anyway. So if you have a top babyface like a Diesel or Undertaker or eventually Shawn Michaels, the feud is the top heels vs. them, not Cornette vs. those guys. Go back and watch like the Yoko vs. Taker feud several months in where Cornette is cutting a different promo every week either on Raw or syndicated TV. There all good to great promos, but unfortunately, they don't really get you pumped to see those matches. You can literally replace those heels with anyone mean mugging behind Cornette. It's the same template and you can change guys out without noticing. You almost start tuning it out. It became a big issue with Camp Cornette as well. At some point, those guys need to be able to cut if not a strong promo, a passable promo that makes you believe. Those guys need to be able to show authority with OR without a manager speaking for them. Unfortunately, what Cornette was extremely gifted at became an impediment for the guys he was to suppose benefit.

I entered right before the deadline so it's on both lists for me.

That's an interesting experiment. Jeff Jarrett and Ken Shamrock had a match on Raw in 1999 where Ken had to wrestle in a straightjacket. Since Ken is so use to different forms of grappling and doesn't actually need his arms, he legit used his legs as arms and absolutely made it look unfair that a human could know how to adapt that way. He could lose both his arms and still fuck you up in a fight. That's scary. It was also amazing and extremely entertaining to watch. At this point, I am pretty sure Bryan Danielson doesn't need his eyes to wrestle. Matter of fact, his eyes might be holding him back.

Hey hey sprewellrimz practically begged me to go but this show is just outside my area. If it were a little closer, I probably would have went. Also, wasn't Little Rock a big Mid South stop?

Montel Jackson quickly not getting paid by the hour.
