RIPPA Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 http://deathvalleydriver.com/3off_hh99/ Quote Russo shows were not designed to be reviewed traditionally. This is an exercise in futility trying to coherently write something that isn’t a straight move for move recap. But also having the half of moment to process even one possible funny moment is next to impossible. Russo really was ahead of his time. They way he breaks everything it would work perfectly as an Instagram story. Oh god… I just put that thought out into the universe. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh they definitely do. That is kinda what I was hinting at at the end. But I am getting angry just at the logic of it (Basically it was a non-title match so Sting shouldn't have lost the title BUT since he attached Charles Robinson, they stripped him of the title) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted January 13, 2018 Author Share Posted January 13, 2018 I haven't really created a rate sheet for the reviews It is has kinda unofficially shaken out as (based on previous donations) ~$10 gets a few matches ~$20 gets a PPV/Full Show A lot of it based on length of time needed to devote to a review too. Like no one has really gone outside the realm of WWF/WCW yet (Outside of @Matt D yet) so I am not sure what exactly would say for like a 6 hour New Japan show or all 3 days of say BOLA It should be fairly obvious though. Like don't ask for the full Island Deathmatch for only $5. So I would just keep that in mind when asking for 5 hours of wrestling to be reviewed. (Along with if it is available on the Network yet) God - I am now debating doing a quasi Amazon Wishlist to give people ideas of shit that would torment me to watch. I really loathe myself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey - don't yell at me for everyone else's disposable income That being said - most of the money goes back into the site in some way shape or form. That reminds me - I need to review those TNA DVDs I got via some donations (but no god damn gum. Still bitter about that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Fowler Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 I've always maintained that never giving Goldberg a second run with the belt was even dumber than taking it off him in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(BP) Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Looking at the level of talent and marquee names on this card, it's astounding that the only one who repeatedly told Russo to fuck off instead of collecting a check was Hogan. Of course, he may have been the only one who could afford to at the time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobbyWhioux Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 "Rey's the one on the left" (in refernce to Mysterio and Torrie Wilson). LOL.

Victator Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 This was Russo's first attempt to redo the Deadly Game Tourney. Love Sid/Goldberg, this feud was one of the only things WCW got just right in 99. Then Sid lost an I Quit match in four minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
