Yeah I believe it is the match when Dreamer finally gets the win after three years. I cannot believe Heyman booked a feud that went for three years and the face never got the win. Granted Tommy probably got the upper hand in segments/brawls/etc. Also, in the doc. I found it very interesting Paul E. allowed many of the wrestlers give so much input on their character and storylines.

^Yeah I think that's why so many of their angles and feuds worked so well, the input wasn't just coming from Paul E. himself but from the guys who were involved as well.

The Dreamer/Raven feud was booked so well it's almost scary. The way that Dreamer finally goes over Raven and everyone knew he was leaving for WCW with Dreamer yelling "E-C-Fucking-W" is classic.

Then to transition so smoothly to a whole new huge angle and storyline with Sabu, RVD, and Lawler laying out the whole locker room until Taz comes down to make the save. Then to have Taz and Shane Douglas jawjack and go at it to have Taz go over and win the ECW TV title.

Just the way the whole thing played out covering several different feuds and angles was beyond tremendous. They went from Dreamer vs Raven to WWF vs ECW to Taz vs Sabu to Taz vs Douglas pretty much flawlessly. Just stuff you aren't gonna see anymore.

That's why Heyman is the mad scientist. It truly makes you wonder what could have happened if ECW never lost there TV deal? The storylines and character development are things that you just don't see today. I do believe ECW crossed the line maybe one too many times as far as the wrestlers putting their bodies in serious risk but it is also that "put it all on the line" attitude that makes them so intriguing to watch.

I'm gonna give disc 2 of the Eddie DVD a watch in a few minutes and get a review up for it in the next hour or so, as I only have 2 matches on that disc to watch, as I reviewed the rest of them on other PPV DVDs.

Next from me is the Benoit DVD, then the From the Vault DVD, then maybe the Raw 15th Anniversary DVD (though most of it is promos and segments...). After that I think I might do a Royal Rumble Anthology review, as I believe I have only actually done 2 Royal Rumble PPV reviews. By the time I get those done, I should have WM24 on DVD to do that.

'cal, have you already seen Wrestlemania or are you waiting on the DVD to catch it for the first time?

Does anyone else like Orton's new entrance song? I'm pretty sure I'm the only one in the world (including Orton and the band who made it) who likes it. I've heard a hundred people say it's just generic rock (which I guees is true), but I don't know I still dig it.

[McQueen]

I should go get that DVD right now tbh. Haven't seen it yet.

Oh watching Austin/Hart SS '96. Not feeling ***** from it but still pretty damn good.

Yeah, I have already seen it, but I am waiting for the DVD to do a review, when I can see it in full quality etc. Plus, by the time the DVD comes it will have been a while since I last saw the event, and should help me give better ratings. I usually find my ratings are either too high or too low if I give them just after watching a live event, so waiting all this time and re-watching should help me be more accurate (for me, anyway ).

It is starting to grow on me unlike Kennedy's which is shit. Jeff's music is starting grow on me too. I think Orton's music suits his psycho persona extremely well. I guess it was time for a change from 'Burn In My Light' even though that's one of my favorite themes ever.

Bret/Austin SS96 **** 3/4

[The Lady Killer]

I actually like Kennedy's new song more than Hardy's or Orton's. Fits him now that he's a face.
