[The Beast Incarnate]

Same here. Wrestlemania VIII in general is one of my favorite shows ever due to Flair/Savage and Hart/Piper stealing the show. The post match promos from both Flair and Savage are some of the greatest of all time. Seriously can't wait to get to MANIA EIGHT, I just have to blow through two to seven first

... AAAANDDD Two sucks as of now.

[NO!]

Wrestlemania XIX

Cruiserweight Title Match
Matt Hardy vs. Rey Mysterio *** (I know this was really short, but I wasn't bored at all during this match)

Handicap Match
Undertaker vs. A-Train & Big Show ** (Decent big guy match. Taker could've been involved in something better.)

Triple Threat for Women's Title
Trish Stratus vs. Jazz vs. Victoria **1/2 (Makes me wish they'd give women more of a chance these days)

Triple Threat for Tag Team Titles
Team Angle vs. Los Guerreros vs. Chris Benoit & Rhyno *** (Felt like the odd men out, to be honest.)

Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Jericho ***** (Classic)

World Heavyweight Title Match
Triple H (w/ Ric Flair) vs. Booker T ***1/2 (Decent title match. Wrong guy went over)

Street Fight
Hulk Hogan vs. Vince McMahon ****

The Rock vs. Stone Cold ****

WWE Championship Match
Brock Lesnar vs. Kurt Angle ****1/2

Overall - 9/10

One of the best Mania's of all time.

I wrote my review for it and it's literally twice as long as anything else on the set so far. That's usually a sign that I love a match when I just can't stop talking about how much I love it. It's awesome, I don't even care that Flair says they had to rehearse it beforehand.

[NO!]

Survivor Series 2002

3 on 3 Elimination Tables Match
Dudley Boyz & Jeff Hardy vs. Rico & 3 Minute Warning ***1/2

Cruiserweight Title Match
Billy Kidman vs. Jamie Noble ***1/2

Hardcore Match for Women's Title
Victoria vs. Trish Stratus ***

WWE Championship Match
Big Show vs. Brock Lesnar ***

Triple Threat Elimination for Tag Titles
Los Guerreros vs. Edge & Rey Mysterio vs. Kurt Angle & Chris Benoit ****

Elimination Chamber for World Heavyweight Title
Shawn Michaels vs. Triple H vs. Chris Jericho vs. Kane vs. Rob Van Dam vs. Booker T ****1/2

Overall - 10/10

My favorite Survivor Series of all time.

[That's irrelevant]

That WrestleMania 19 card is phenomenal. It's up there with WrestleMania X-Seven and WrestleMania 20 by far.

As for Hogan vs Vince's street fight, I honestly thought it was going to be a shit match that would be DUD worthy but it turned out to be a pretty great match. The stare-down between the two was also great,

Randy was just a perfectionist. Steamboat also talked about how he and Randy rehearsed a lot for the WrestleMania III match and look at how that turned out. If you can produce a classic calling it in the ring or with preparation do whatever works to make it a great & memorable show I say.

I really enjoyed that Lesnar/Show match. They had a pretty good series.

On a side note - these WWE Superstars from 2010 rock. Already have about 5 Regal gems without even getting to the Goldust matches yet. Regal vs Bourne was something else for a sub 5 minute contest.

There have to be some really good matches that you'll come across. I really should be watching more of Superstars as it seems to feature a bunch of really talented guys working matches that are, for the most part, fairly short.

Yeah that shouldn't impact what you think about a match. It would be like giving a movie a bad review because you thought the actor's rehearsed too much.

That being said when things do happen on the fly that is incredibly impressive. I don't know how guy are able to just go out there and put on a great match without really planning anything. I know I've heard Punk say that he didn't plan anything with Cena aside from the finish for their match at MITB. That just sounds unbelievable. But that's more like a cool fact and not something that really makes a match more or less enjoyable.

Dear God, here's a tip folks: DO NOT spend your late night watching crappy PPV's. It'll be the perfect combination of bore, ache and tire. With that being said...

Cyber Sunday 2006:
Kane/Umaga: 3/4*
Tornado Tag: **
Jeff/Carlito: *1/2
DX/Rated RKO: ***
Lita/Mickie: 1/2*
Spirit Squad/Flair & Piper: 3/4*
Cena/Booker/Show: **1/4

December To Dismember 2006:
Hardys/MNM: ***1/4
Mahoney/Striker: 1/2*
FBI/Burke & Terkay: DUD
Dreamer/Daivari: DUD
Knox & Kelly/Thorn & Ariel: DUD
Elimination Chamber: **

Well, neither is Heroes Of Wrestling bad, or Great American Bash 1991 bad, or even King Of The Ring 1995 bad (though D2D is only 2nd to that), but they're still definitely up there. December To Dismember matched Royal Rumble 06's record in DUD's. Cyber Sunday doesn't have a DUD but there are only 3 out of 7 matches actually were ** or above. Easily the worst PPV's of the year and two of the worst PPV's in WWE history.

The final ranking of all WWE PPV's 2006:

1 - No Way Out
2 - Unforgiven
3 - One Night Stand
4 - WrestleMania 22
5 - No Mercy
6 - Armageddon
7 - Vengeance
8 - Judgment Day
9 - Backlash
10 - New Year's Revolution
11 - SummerSlam
12 - The Great American Bash
13 - Survivor Series
14 - Royal Rumble
15 - Cyber Sunday
16 - December To Dismember

Considering starting a PG Era TV matches project... any suggestions for that?

Wait...you actually watched December to Dismember? Masochist.
