This was a fairly gallant attempt at breaking into the NYC market, with the biggest football name yet, but this kind of thing probably should have been best-served on the NY edition of Pro instead of on TBS. I'm not sure Dangerously being in Big Cat's corner was ever really explained in a kayfabe way.

I don't think Bill Parcells was too happy that Taylor was doing something like this two days before the Giants' playoff game against the Bears. They blew the Bears out 31-3, but can you imagine the hue and cry if they'd lost and it had gotten out what Taylor was doing forty-eight hours before the big game?

 

LT wasn't a very good interview here, with the constant gay jokes directed toward both Heyman and Hughes and his mumbling. Something tells me he wouldn't have dared to actually call Hughes a pansy to his face, football hero or not. JR keeps this on track as well as he can, but it's still not easy to sit through. Someone should have told Taylor to speak up a little.

 

Luger won the match, which was a battle royal in football pads, in a little over two minutes. All that hype for a two-minute match? Talk about a waste of TV time, especially national TV time. I think they showed clips of this one along with the Flair/Sting title change from the same card, though, so it wasn't a total loss.
