I wanted that oiled up roid boy to get his ass handed to him so bad. Him and Buff Bagwell should have been forced to team and get beaten up by the Faces of Fear around the loop. Then Lodi should have been put in a feud with Scott Norton a la the Cat so he could get smashed some more. The answer to Raven not getting a better spot is Vince.

Curt McGirt Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Hey, look what I found! Chop - Irish whip - shoulderblock - powerbomb - pin, just like it should be. Vincent holding up the IWGP title is surreal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He deserved better than a lower-midcard spot. Raven and Rhyno had what was easily the best hardcore title match at Backlash 2001 IIRC. I believe it was on the same card as the awesome Dean Malenko/Scotty 2 Hotty light heavyweight title match. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it was on the same card as the awesome Dean Malenko/Scotty 2 Hotty light heavyweight title match. Raven/Rhyno was 2001, and you're absolutely right. That match was absolutely terrific, and my personal favorite from a card that also featured Jericho vs. Regal, Austin vs. Undertaker and Benoit vs. Angle. TNA basically re-ran that match in 2005, and it was just as good then. Dean vs. Scotty 2 Hotty was the year before, and that too is a gem. Backlash 2000 was mostly the card Wrestlemania 2000 SHOULD have been, including an awesome Rock-HHH match. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Cincinnati Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 FYI, Backlash '01 wasn't Austin vs Taker. It was the Brothers of Destruction vs Two Man Power Trip for the WWF, IC, and tag titles. And it now occurs to me that if KO makes past Sunday as the Universal champ, I'd love to see that idea reprised with JeriKO vs Cesaro and Sheamus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I've been so indoctrinated to WWE TV style that Norton powerbombing Lodi from the "wrong" camera angles (not playing to the hard cam) looks weird now. Great. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 Side note: Lodi is not as cut as I remember. But he still looks like the Bondage Spawn of Guy Fieri. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cristobal Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 So the guy who did the Katie Vick scene was trading gym humor jokes with a Senator during a confirmation and my brain is borked to hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure Dave or Bryan have talked about wrestling media pretty much being a nonfactor in their press conferences. It's entirely wrestling media. Triple H does 'em before every Takeover, usually. It's been a running joke that Mike Johnson is usually the first to ask a question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spritenaut 32 Posted January 24, 2017 Share Posted January 24, 2017 If she gets confirmed, Linda will become 'legit'. That may even extend to Stephanie and 'Paul'. It wouldn't surprise me in the slightest if Vince never shakes the "carny" label regardless of how much money the company makes or what government positions the McMahon family holds.

I was mixing up the headline matches from the May PPV. Also, I didn't know until this moment how badly I want to see this tag feud.

I swear some wrestling guy wrote a rant about being on hold for over an hour for one of those things and then they skipped over him because he was a wrestling guy.
