Just read about the In Your House release. First time using this smiley and damn happy about it.

It's more about the era for me though.

Another BOSS set on the horizon. All this year seems to have going for it is pumping out the nostalgia.

Fingers crossed Michaels vs Owen from Rage in the Cage & Razor/Kid vs Gunns from Great White North can make it on there. If Michaels vs Owen made the My Journey set already then scratch that. Make room for the good Razor vs Jarrett/Roadie Handicap match. Or CRYBABY match. Razor ruled those early events when he wasn't working vs Dean Douglas.

Excellent, more NG era matches. Thanks HS and yes, Razor was great.(sigh)I miss those days. Never saw the Douglas match but I do remember those Dean Douglas segments. Surprised they put the IC strap on him. On topic of Scott Hall, I have absolutely no recollection of any decent matches of his in WCW. Did he have any? I'm drawing a complete blank.

The Douglas matches were bad. Douglas was decent in singles and Razor was the man so idk what went wrong.

Hall in WCW? Yeah, yikes. A total bust. I can name more Hogan matches that were honestly worth a watch. Hall's best match had to be the 6 man from Bash at the Beach. He completely lazed on his career the moment he got there. Character and charisma was always in tact, but ring work went straight down the drain. He had a match in 2010 that I thought blew away the bulk, if not the entire span, of his WCW tenure.

I still have bad memories of that World War 3 ppv. Was he acting purposely like he was drunk? That and him using the taser on Goldberg. I agree about the character and charisma, as that, aside from what I shared, is my memory of his time in WCW. I'm not interested in any recent matches of his. It pains me to see what he's become.

The drunk gimmick in the latter half of '98 was infamous. Making a gimmick on the bane of his existence, yeah that's what he needed.

Disgusting. Same thing with Hawk. I was young at that time, but I knew something was off and it didn't sit well with me. I developed a twisted sense of humour, but I draw the line at stuff like that.

**Obfuscation** · 01-12-2013, 10:09 PM

Hawk's, oh lord. Falling off the stage. No words to follow that up.

April 16th and it's going to have a documentary too. I'm looking forward to the match list. Hopefully Foley/WWE features plenty of Cactus Jack gems from WCW like the ones I listed yesterday. I already have Bret's new DVD on pre-order. I'm anxiously awaiting that to arrive as well as the In Your House match list.

Seeing people heaping praise on Del Rio/Show from last night's Smackdown. I thought it was good but nothing more. Admittedly I wasn't very focused so I'll give it another watch.
