Lone Rogue posted:I liked how much of a total douchebag he was. Christopher was always great at playing a complete maniacal douchebag and this never got used to its full advantage in the WWE because he was in such a popular midcard tag team. I'm not saying he could have been a big star but the guy was easier to hate than Heath Slater in Memphis. Having met Brian many times as a kid going to Saturday morning studio wrestling I can say confidently that he was not 'playing' a douchebag at all. He was one of the worst about talking to the kids or doing autographs after the shows.

maniacripper posted:Which is strange because everyone said Owen was one of the few upstanding people in the business. Unless that talk is all post death fluff. Was it a misunderstanding or is there something else they had heat over? Bret spoke about it on a recent WWE DVD saying that he was disappointed with how Owen handled the whole situation. So I'm assuming if Bret of all people felt that way then most of the blame for it has to be placed on Owen. I heard that Martha Hart wrote in her book that Owen thought Austin might be faking or playing the injury up to be worse than it was. But I don't believe that for a second.

I just checked my copy and yeah it doesn't take anywhere near an hour. It takes about 15-18 minutes of actual TV time not including the commercial break.

Astro7x posted:It was just too much nWo interviews and very little wrestling. We had the set construction, the nWo Nitro intro, then the Hogan gift celebration where he gets his motorcycle, a second interview segment where Bischoff reveals these huge banners of Hogan's old SI cover, then the third interview segment where Hogan gets the severed head. That could have all been condensed into one segment... Oh yeah, I didn't mean to give the intention it wasn't terrible. That episode is absolutely horrible.

That can be applied to literally anything involving the Dungeon of Doom. One of the wackiest long running storylines I've ever seen.

Oatgan posted:Great American Bash 2000, Bash at the Beach 2000, and New Blood Rising has got to be the worst string of consecutive ppvs of all time. Yeah, that's pretty much the bottom of the barrel when it comes to wrestling PPVs. Absolutely dreadful stuff. We should do an endurance night (if you want mass suicide) or week (if you just want the pain to last) where we see who can last through all three of those shows consecutively. I'm not sure I could.

I loved how they kept saying it was live during the break ins. Like we were supposed to believe that Giant and Hogan had been going at it for like 40 minutes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJjgtKgNssI

I think I may go through the Nitros from the time the nWo started and see exactly how many times it ended like that. What criteria are we looking for here? Just an nWo beatdown ending? Or a cliffhanger ending? Or perhaps a clusterfuck brawl ending? I guess we could do all three.

Followed immediately by another nWo beat down after kicking Giant out of nWo. Several other shows ended with the nWo either in control of commentary for taking over earlier in the show or doing a promo in ring. EDIT: Alright, here's 1997. I'll do 1998 tomorrow. 1997 1/06 - nWo beat down of The Giant. Garbage. Followed by nWo leaving and Vincent going back to ring ans getting beat down from The Giant 1/13 - nWo run in and attack The Giant after match that occurs during the commercials of The New Adventures of Robin Hood. 1/27 - nWo beat down is stopped by Lex Luger casually strolling to ring which causes the nWo to backdown. 3/03 - Ends in nWo/WCW clusterfuck brawl. "We've gotta go, we're out of time! See ya next week!" 3/17 - nWo beat down is averted by combined forces of WCW and they are run off. Sting points at Hogan. "WCW is back!" - Tony Schiavonni 3/24 - nWo beat down. Garbage. Spray paint. 4/07 - nWo attempts beat down, is run off by Sting and DDP 4/14 - nWo beat down. Garbage. Sting, DDP, Luger, and Giant get bats and are about to enter and take on the nWo. Sting hits Nash. "We're out of time!" 4/21 - nWo surround Flair, Piper, and Kevin Greene in the ring and then "We're out of time!" 4/28 - nWo casually stroll to the ring during Piper and Flair promo. Flair exits ring to head off the nWo. They beat Flair down in the aisle as Piper is completely oblivious in the ring. Piper finally notices, takes off belt and runs out of ring towards nWo as show suddenly ends. 5/05 - nWo beat down. Several run out to try and stop it, nobody can. Garbage. 5/26 - nWo surround Sting in the ring. "We're out of time. Wait we're staying with it." nWo climbs into ring, Sting goes back up to ceiling "He's gone and so are we!" 6/09 - nWo beat down.

Real Sting clears ring. "We are out of time!" 10/20 - nWo/WCW clusterfuck brawl. Cage lowers over ring. Show ends as brawl continues. 10/27 - nWo beat down. Garbage. Show ends during brawl. 11/10 - nWo beat down Sting. Nobody in WCW wants to help him. Garbage. "We have gotta get out of here!" 11/17 - nWo beat down Giant. WCW roster likes Giant more than Sting so they run in to save him. Show ends as brawl continues. 11/24 - nWo beat down Giant. WCW roster no longer likes Giant for some reason so they don't save him. Sting dummy drops through ring. Show ends. 12/01 - nWo beat down. Garbage. 12/08 - nWo beat down. Sting dummy drops through ring. Magically turns into real Sting. He beats down nWo. 12/15 - nWo beat down. Garbage. DDP and Steiners run off nWo. DDP cuts promo. nWo come back out and cut promo. Stings appear.

My favorite had to be "At first glance, it looks like Buff Bagwell, but at least The nWo official was in the ring during an actual main event." It amuses me to no end that nobody likes Buff Bagwell.
