205 LIVE RETRO WORKRATE REPORT EPISODE #7 (01/10/17) (By PHIL RIPPA) There might have been more for the What Worked column but I left my notes at work and I remember being angry when watching the show so, to be honest, I just would have mocked members of the crowd some more. I am saving […]
WOW WORKRATE #8 – 11/25/00 (by DEAN RASMUSSEN) GREETINGS! I’m late with this baby, so I figure you- the beloved and gentle reader- deserved an explanation. WELCOME TO MY LITANY OF EXCUSES! Saturday night I fell asleep after taping Iron Chef (for America’s Favorite Canadian- Ollie! HE ROX~!) so I was gonna watch it Sunday […]
WOW WORKRATE #7 – 11/18/00 (by DEAN & ANGIE RASMUSSEN) Hiya! YOUR LENGTHY BACKSTORY: I watched four hours of internet cybercast wrestling on America One while drifting in and out of the SATURDAY NIGHT CHAT ROOM WEEKLY WRESTLING FESTIVAL. The scorecard: ULTIMATE WRESTLING- cool! WILD WEST WRESTLING FROM THE 80s! NWA WORLDWIDE- limbo. NWA WILDSIDE- […]
WOW WORKRATE #5 – 11/05/00 (by DEAN RASMUSSEN) GREETINGS~! I was at a wedding in Columbia, MD- where me and my old girlfriend from college sang JACKSON by Johnny and June Carter Cash with the band at the reception, the rootstastic Burnt Taters. She reminded me that we went fifteen years ago and I realized […]
WOW WORKRATE #4 – 10/29/00 (by DEAN RASMUSSEN) Hiya! I fell asleep again, so a-taping I did go. I’m going to use the patented RASMUSSEN WOW MUNCHKIN-PUNCHER RANKING SYSTEM. It is based on the amount of stalking a certain match will create- so the greater the distance of the restraining order, the higher the quality […]
WOW WORKRATE #2 – 10/14/00 (by DEAN RASMUSSEN) It’s 1:00 in the morning here in the capital of the Confederacy so all us freaks are awake anyway, so we might as well watch the first episode of WOW we’ve ever been made aware of. I’m stoked! This is in real time so if it makes […]
205 LIVE RETRO WORKRATE REPORT EPISODE #6 (01/03/17) (by Phil Rippa) Starting off 2017 with a… well it’s not a bang but it’s not a whimper. God, this was a whole lotta the same. Don’t make me start wishing for the Enzo episodes. I don’t hate myself THAT much. WHAT WORKED + Jack Swagger is […]
205 LIVE RETRO WORKRATE REPORT EPISODE #4 (12/20/16) (by PHIL RIPPA) To catch us all up – since its been forever since I did one of those things AND there was a PPV and RAW with lots and lots of angles between episodes – Rich Swann retained the title on the Roadblock: End of the […]
205 LIVE RETRO WORKRATE REPORT EPISODE #3 (12/13/16) (by PHIL RIPPA) I am already in a weird spot. I am tired of the Swann/Kendrick/TJP love triangle but I also know wishing for other people in the main event gets me Enzo. The devil I know I guess. WHAT WORKED + This is the first week […]
205 LIVE RETRO WORKRATE REPORT EPISODE #2 (12/06/16) (by PHIL RIPPA) Still getting my sea legs with these things so bear with me. Also remember that I am not over as a writer. WHAT WORKED + Again… viewing this in a vacuum… the recap of Rich Swann’s title win was really well done even if […]
