Nice Guy Eddie Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 8 hours ago, sabremike said: I just remember one of the legendary Cactus Jack anti-hardcore promos where he talks about the magic of WCW "Where a tough Jewish kid from Brooklyn becomes a black man from Macon, Georgia." He also refers to PN News in that promo. Something along the lines of a kid from Nebraska becoming a rap superstar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Wilson Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 I'm watching ECW Hardcore TV in order starting from when it became "Extreme" (so I started mid-August 1994), and most of this material is new-ish for me since I didn't even know ECW existed until 1997. Its a well done TV show, I can see why it was popular at the time, but I do think an hour is a great length for a wrestling show (probably one reason I love Lucha Underground) since it forces the promotion to be compact. The Dreamer/Sandman angle was fun but man I hadn't seen the Matt Borne stuff before. I know his claims and other's claims of why he was suddenly gone for ECW differ, but he got a fair amount of promo time and then *poof* with no explanation. Which happens in smaller promotions. I also didn't realize how big a part of ECW that Public Enemy was, it feels like 20% of the last six or so episodes have focused on them. Its been an easy watch and is good background noise, looking forward to seeing how they introduce some of the wrestlers I think of when I think of "ECW" such as Raven, Van Dam, and The Gangstas. So far it has held up better than I was expecting, not that there have been any ***** matches but the bad matches are short and the storylines still feel interesting. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 So at the MSG house show in March (3/16) - they are running John Cena and Nikki Bella vs. Elias and Bayley So that is interesting for a whole lotta reasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they're liking this pairing and want to keep Bayley with him for awhile? She could definitely use something new for a bit. Or given the timing does that suggest they might actually win the tournament? That seems unlikely considering the other competitors in the tournament. Or maybe they just want to give them some practice as a team during the tournament? Not sure about the timing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casey Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Bayley & Elias' match is this coming Tuesday, though. So I doubt they'd schedule them a match at MSG with Cena & Nikki a month away just to give them practice. I mean, why aren't Balor & Banks, Asuka & Miz, etc. getting matches on the house shows together to practice being a team for a few more weeks? I also don't think it suggests they're winning the tournament, because Elias & Bayley (if they win against Rusev & Lana) will be facing off against either Nia Jax & Apollo Crews or Bobby Roode & Charlotte a few days before the match with Cena & Nikki. FWIW, the Mixed Match Challenge Finals will be after the go-home WM Smackdown show. I think, if anything, it suggests Cena & Elias are going to be working together for a few more months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peck Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Bayley heel turn as she rebels against her good-girl image and becomes a rock-star groupie, dabbling in alcohol and hardcore drugs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Kronos Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Watching the 2002 RAW with Austin/Rock vs Hogan/Hall/Nash. That's a lot of historical drawing power in one ring. I almost feel like one of them should have been left behind as a Designated Survivor. It's a solid match and does a nice job setting up Hogan v Rock at Mania a few weeks later.

GuerrillaMonsoon Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 I'd be up for a modern day Savage/Liz pairing of the Drifter/Bayley, with Bayley being the June Carter to his Johnny Cash. I'd also be keen on it just aping Dewey Cox. Instead I suspect we'd get Mega Powers redux with Cena. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
