I'd stopped watching wrestling at this point, but I wanted to see how an ECW ppv would do, so I bought the dvd. Needless to say, it was a while before I got back into it again.

I think that the reason people HATED it wasn't because of the match quality, but the booking. Not only was it the NEW ECW show that nobody wanted to see on PPV, but people didn't know that:
a) Punk would get back to the main event
b) Bobby Lashley wouldn't be John Cena the 2nd
&
c) All of the boring geeks with terrible gimmicks wouldn't be around for much longer
so there was a great deal of dispair at the time.

It could work if they do the whole show for each 'stage' of the story, kind of an interesting snapshot of what was going on around the angle.

Yeah, they should be doing the entire programs. Kinda clunky to go from 2-hour PPV recaps to 20 minute "David Arquette won the match :effort:" shows.

Mr. Carlisle posted:

It's amazing how much support here Miz had when that video was produced and now you'd be hard pressed to find anyone here that would claim to still be a fan. His rise and fall was hilariously fast.
For me, his fall happened when he came out on the ramp. He was a foot shorter than Riley, wore an overcoat that looked 3 sizes too big for him, & stomped around like a 12-year-old "tough guy". All I could think of was: "Man, they were right. He shouldn't be here."

Just like that hypothetical that Bryan Alvarez says about something being on the other side of the room, and you have to choose to go through X, X or The Miz to get it. I just don't buy him as a person who could win a professional fight.

But, that video package made me think it for a minute or so, so good job production guys.

In fairness to Savage, I've only heard about his scripting in big-time matches with competent workers (and Warrior). I doubt he needed to plan every move out on the house show circuit.

So Attitude Era Podcast done their 24-hour wrestling game marathon and raised £1,331.74 ($2125.32)!

Also, Kevin shaved his beard off since they reached a grand.

I want someone to make a "Leave the Memories Alone" montage for the beard.

If they raised £1,331 & the only result was that The Worst Beard disappeared, I'd say it was money well spent. Helping the sick kiddies is a nice bonus.
