Completely new to 90's WWE. Figured I might as well blog about it. I'll try and review/rate every single WWE match that happened in '93. Can't be bothered to summarize promos/non-wrestling segments, though.
RAW 01
January 11, 1993
Manhatten Center
New York City, NY
1. Koko B. Ware v. Yokozuna [with Mr. Fuji]:
Koko manages to stagger Yokozuna with a couple of dropkicks after multiple failed attempts at trying to knock him off his feet, but it’s all for naught. Yokozuna squashes Koko with the Banzai Drop. Rating: *
2. Steiner Brothers v. Executioners:
Scott Steiner's hair is glorious. I grew up watching him as Big Poppa Pump, so this iteration of him is a refreshing contrast. Steiners absolutely dismantle these dudes with suplexes and bombs in another, more enjoyable, squash match. Steiners get the pinfall after a killer Steinerizer. Rating: *¾
3. Max Moon v. Shawn Michaels [intercontinental Championship]:
First match on the card that’s given time to develop. Michaels’ heat segments are a bore. No real flow to the match. Outlandish costumes aside, Moon doesn’t stand out at all. His babyface comeback gains no traction. Michaels retains with a Teardrop Suplex. I almost fell asleep. Rating: *½
4. Damian Demento v. Undertaker [with Paul Bearer]:
It's strange seeing a green Undertaker. He's kind of stiff. His movements feel mechanical. Hmm. Nothing about the actual match is worth articulating. Undertaker gets the pinfall after a Tombstone. Rating: DUD
