AJ is one of a handful of active guys I'll consider. Right now I've got him high 40's. His athleticism & bumping are on a separate level that almost make up for his short comings. He's an ultimate babyface IMO; undersized, works well from underneath, gets some great sympathy. Also, can't discount his tag work especially with Chris Daniels.
-
I liked his mat work, always felt he did a decent job working a body part as well. His selling is non existent, he feels very choreographed & we all know about his "personality". That said, I still love to watch him work & he's one of my favorites from that era.

Top 20- never had great match structure but every now & then I want to see people get thrown around. Rick & Scott did that as well an anybody. Bonus points for entertaining squash matches

Lawler got a great match out of The Miz....case closed, best of all time.
-
They did this to themselves. I was a big fan of TNA in the mid 2000's but they've done everything possible to sabotage themselves.
-
The ending to this match pissed me off to no end. These two had a very personal feud for over a year with numerous brutal matches, this one included. In the end, it wasn't Benoit that beat Sullivan it was Jackie. Made no sense to me.
-
Really liked Payback on the whole, but the last man standing match didn't do it for me. Yes, it had big spots but it had zero selling. I know we're all used to it but last night it just seemed more obvious. That match was an overbooked, Attitide era at its worst, clusterfuck.
-
I really enjoy Punk when he's a heel & he can "drop pipe bombs." But as a face, he almost Miz bad. He obviously doesn't like playing that part & it shows. As far as in ring goes, he may be one of the most overrated wrestlers currently. He throws the absolute worst kicks this side of the Divas division & he borrows way to much from other wrestlers. Plus, he's a dick.

-Keep watching WCW for my podcast (The Nitrocast...cheap pop) -Try not to let the current WWE product put me in a sour mood weekly -Discover more 80's goodness that I've missed -Watch more stuff from Japan, it's a weakness for me that I want to turn into a strength -
Complete shit match, Hogan stalling for the first 7 minutes took the wind out of the match before it started. The overbooked finish was a staple for wcw main events. Piper coming out was a nice surprise but went too long, so long they ended the ppv while they were still cutting promos.

[1996-11-17-WWF-Survivor Series] Bret Hart vs Steve Austin
y2stump replied to a topic in November 1996
Just re watched this match & it's gotta be top 10 for both of those guys. Bret looked fresh, Austin's body hadn't broken down yet. Loved the story they told, the action was great & the finish was both well done & logical. Great match -
Just watched this promo today & it's probably the best promo I've ever seen Sting cut. Good intensity & good content but having him turn his back to the camera was the cherry on top.

A thread in which we celebrate Mark Hunt vs Bigfoot Silva
y2stump replied to Bix's topic in Pro Wrestling Mostly
Best heavyweight fight I've ever seen & probably the only time I was happy to see a draw. -
Fall Brawl 96- what a great time it was to be a WCW fan. The undercard here was really Lucha heavy (Rey vs Super Calo & Konnan vs Juvi) Benoit vs Jericho had a fantastic match. Hell, the Nasty Boys weren't even that bad! The story of Sting "joining the nWo" is one of my favorites & it's really cool to rewatch and feel like I'm 16 again.

Original Liontamer: when Jericho used do it in WCW it looked so devastating and painful. It's a shame it turned into a Boston Crab later, but the original will always be my favorite.
