Classic Wrestling Discussion: Part III & Wrestler Poll

[These Are The Days]

Continuing with Mania 19. More matches need to end the way Michaels vs Jericho did. A sudden, clean finish that doesn't involve a finisher and you just know the match is ending. Otherwise, the burying of Chris Jericho continues. No man ever fell further from grace. There's little worse than a heel run full of 5 star matches and always being on the losing end


Also holy crap it's a Sylvain Grenier sighting

 

[These Are The Days]

It took 3 Rock Bottoms and a Stunner for Austin to finally lose a match clean to anyone else but Kurt Angle. It is an unbelievable to end your career for Austin. But as someone who has taken years in this watch through, this just feels like one last ridiculous F U from the Rattlesnake all the way from 1998. Back then he'd have survived all 4 finishers, jumped from a plane, whooped Undertakers ass too and downed a pack of Steveweisers all before hitting the ground.

Fired up Halloween Havoc 93, and once we get past the horrendous acting of Tony Schiavone in the opening skit with trick r' treaters, we are "treated" to an opening match of Kane and Kole of Harlem Heat joined by The Equalizer, taking on the mishmash of the Shockmaster, Charlie Norris, and the late great Ice Train

It was clear that Jesse Ventura knew he was in for a long night

 

[Unholy Diver]

I was a bit unfair with my quick assumption about Halloween Havoc 93 as it actually turned out to have a pretty solid card

Paul Orndorff vs Ricky Steamboat

Lord Steven Regal vs the British Bulldog

Stunning Steve Austin vs Dustin Rhodes

Nasty Boys vs Bagwell and Scorpio

Sid vs Sting - this would just be a few days before Sid and Arn Anderson would have their little Scissoring issue

Flair vs Rick Rude

Vader vs Cactus Jack in a Spin the wheel make the deal - Texas Death Match
