I find Shane incredibly fun to watch. His matches may not be technically sound but he's been in some awesome stuff.

Shane was great. The Boss's son, and all he wanted to do every time he went out was entertain. Like Vince, he had no problem taking big bumps and whatnot, showing the boys that they wouldn't do anything they wouldn't ask them to do. Gotta respect them both for that.

Did you guys think that the Backlash 2001 main event was sloppy? Cos I sure did.

**Big Z** · 05-27-2012, 02:29 PM

I thought it was incredible. Better than the overrated HHH/Austin Vs Benoit/Jericho.

I don't think it's overrated (I like the Backlash match too) but it might be bacause as the 9 year old I was at the time I was huge fans of Benoit/Jericho and thought it was the greatest thing of all time when they teamed up. That match and the TLC III match bring back so many memories for me.

I think its overrated in the sense that its often referred to as one of the best tag matches ever and the best tv match ever. Don't think its even close to being either.

Shaun Blackford's Backlash 2001 review if you guys are interested.

**Big Z** · 05-27-2012, 02:41 PM

Can't say I'm interested

. Love WWEDVDNews.com for their news, but have no interest in their videos or reviews lol

. Taken me a few years but I've finally found a group of guys whose opinion I value and respect more than anyone else. Even if half of them are drunks

Not too high on this Best of Nitro DVD yet but

at Nash getting tossed out of the ring by DDP onto the table and almost tossing the table into the crowd.

So I'm going to meet Bret Hart in 11 days, and I was just wondering what opinions you have of the man, and where would you place him all time (In terms of both in-ring, and as a total package). Also, I'd like somebody to give me a list of their top 5 favourite Bret matches ever. Personally, my favourite Bret Match is either SS 96 vs Steve Austin, SS 97 vs The Undertaker, or ONO 97 vs The Undertaker.

I might go ahead and rewatch a HUGE amount of Bret matches, just to come up with a top 10-20 or something. As of right now though, he's in my top 5 all time in terms of in-ring, and perhaps top 10 in terms of the total package (he was just THAT good in the ring, fantastic workrate mixed with excellent psychology, knew pacing perfectly).
