Re: Official DVD/Match/Show Discussion Thread
Ok, so I'm finally gonna watch Flair/Steamboat Wrestlewar '89 and when I'm done I'm also going to finally give the Taker/Orton series a watch.
I just got to mention one thing. You gotta love the irony of wrestling. During the Flair/Steamboat 2/3 falls Ross mentions that only in the NWA do you get 60 minutes of wrestling, and that's not including entrances folks!
My point is, despite trying to sell themselves as pro wrestling they were as much about sports-entertainment as the WWE. I mean, Flair's entrance alone was 60 minutes and for Christ's sake, Steamboat came out on a damn horse for Wrestlewar!

Have you ever watched his match against Jeff Hardy at No Surrender 2010? Possibly the worst match I've ever seen.

I'm hoping the guy is just trolling.

After a while, they were just 2 counts.
Anyway, I'm not sure who to put blame on here. Is it management that tells Ziggler to do 50 finishers and have Cena defeat him with one or is it Dolph just trying to steal the show by doing a bunch of crazy shit? A lot of people are just blaming booking but has anyone stopped to consider, "Hey maybe Dolph's the one who's fucking himself over by doing 50 finishers a match?"
Anyone gave that some thought?

Nah it's purely management trying to make Cena look like God. Dolph doesn't have the pull to be doing that. Remember last time he went against the script ?

I did give it a thought actually, and through my rage I realised maybe it wasn't the best idea for Ziggler to snap for the cover like he did all the time in that match. If he'd have stalled to slowly drag himself over Cena's unmoving body, it would have looked more like a lucky kickout on Cena's part than "wow, that did not have any effect on him whatsoever"
