  1. TNA is going to get laughed at in every one of my books, because they laughed off my attempt to take the Gut Check Challenge, even though I was the play-by-play voice of Ring Of Honor.
  2. I will finish up with One Night Stand 2006 and December to Dismember 2006.
  3. If Punk is just announcing his brand, then how will he keep up his tradition of bad things happening to him whenever he comes to Cleveland?
  4. Thoughts on One Night Stand 2005 This book needs to be longer, so let’s watch the three WWE shows under the ECW banner. Holy cow, this was one of the greatest PPVs ever. It exceeded expectations so much that it nullified the name of the show - ECW was too beloved to be left behind after a One Night Stand. Almost every match had historical significance (Storm-Jericho, Benoit-Guerrero), and they all delivered in the ring. ECW stood tall in the post-match brawl with the Raw and Smackdown invaders before Eric Bischoff got destroyed at the end. On commentary, Mick Foley explained that the reason we were watching an ECW reunion instead of a WCW reunion came down to one missing ingredient: Emotion. You felt it from Joey Styles to Paul Heyman to the fans. One year later at One Night Stand, ECW was back as the third WWE brand.
  5. I call 1999 "The Year of Nonsense" in my WWF and WCW books, but I didn't use that phrase in the book I'm currently writing about ECW.
  6. I looked at the scoreboard with 2 minutes left in the Men's Iron Survivor match and said to myself, "Well, I guess it isn't Trick's night."
  7. I was there! The gas cans on the announce table set an ominous tone as soon as we walked into the building. The fans filed out quietly after the show, stunned that Austin had lost the title.
  8. Lexy Nair is ring announcing! She deserves it.
  9. QT also had a really good match with Metalik for the Latin American title to open the Cleveland Collision show. I think that ended up being a dark match.
  10. That would be for the best, considering how things usually go for Punk in Cleveland (Gall, Moxley).
  11. Sounds like they did it because it's an official name change. I was wondering why Britt Baker wasn't on the show. Usually, they make a big deal of her when they are in Pittsburgh.
  12. It makes sense that with 8 to 10 wrestlers and two rings, there could be pinfall/submission attempts happening in both rings at the same time (or someone escaping the cage to forfeit the match).
  13. Uncle Pepsi needs to cut the same "Why does everyone think I'm going to be a locker room cancer? I'm just here to make this company better" promo that the nWo did at no Way out 2002. If he's going to be in the wrestling business, I want him to be happy and healthy, not miserable and picking fights with his co-workers. He's a draw, and it doesn't matter what company he's in - it's good news for both companies if Punk fans are watching pro wrestling.
  14. Cameron Grimes is another possibility.
  15. Still befuddled about the Guardians designating Cal Quantrill for assignment. He was hurt a lot, but he came back strong at the end of the season.
  16. Okay, I can't find it anywhere. What does OTM stand for?
  17. The Cleveland Force! They actually drew some good crowds, and they would darken the arena while the fans waved light sabers.
  18. We were jazzed! The Richfield Coliseum didn't have a hockey team at that time, but we did before (Crusaders of the WHA and Barons of the NHL) and after (Lumberjacks of the IHL).
  19. From King of New York - Page 14 (Survivor Series 87) 2. Fabulous Moolah (captain), Rockin’ Robin, Velvet McIntyre & Jumping Bomb Angels vs. Sensational Sherri (captain), Dawn Marie, Donna Christianello & The Glamour Girls This match was a total dropkick-fest. Even Moolah threw a dropkick. Christianello looked like Rachel Dratch from Saturday Night Live.
