I would probably go ***1/2-***3/4 on the 8 man tag last night, but I have it on DVR to watch again if I need to.

**AIW** · 03-28-2008, 12:33 PM

Wow, that's some big ratings for it.

Because I would give that match **3/4 or just maybe *** at best if I looked at it again. I guess you guys saw way more in it then I did.

I would point out other then the hot crowd which was into most of the show and what I thought was just watchable action at best. I believe I have seen better 8 man tags done on Impact for the last half of last year then what I seen there.

Yeah, I think ***1/2 is still pretty fair tho. I wouldn't go over 4*

It had a great crowd, Sting's return, hot action, good pace, back and forth, etc.

I didn't bother watching it, but people were also rating LAX v.s MCMG v.s RRI over **** which I don't remember be anywhere near ****.

Yeah, I rated that matched highly too. What can I say, I love these kind of chaotic matches with sprints. That's why I'm such a big Dragon Gate mark. The #1 criteria I go by is simply how much was I entertained/enjoyed the match. I had a blast with those matches that's why I rated them so high. I found them to be tons of fun and what can I say, I like to have tons of fun.

Jacobs/Whitmer was a great brawl as usual but this match seemed a lot different than the ones they had in ROH. It was more of an old school type brawl. Whiter had Fannin in his corner so you had the back story of Fannin still seeking revenge on Jacobs and trying to end his career. Then, you had Jacobs who is hell bent on bypassing everyone Fannin puts in his way no matter what.

The brutality in this match really picked up. Whitmer freaking killed Jacobs with a singapore cane throughout the match. The shots were stiff and sickening. Also, the psychology was pretty damn good too. Whitmer brutalized Jacobs' surgerically repaired knee but Jacobs refused to give up. Jacobs hatred for Fannin and his desire to show him up really shown through when Whitmer locked on the figure-four for a solid amount of time.

The finish was freaking awesome. Both men pulled out spikes and just went to town on each other's faces, just brutal stuff to watch. Finally, Jacobs using the spike and stabbing Whitmer's lower nutsack region was a great way to finish the match. Overall these two men are the Danielson/Aries of brawling, it's impossible for these two men to had a bad brawl. The match had everything you could want from a brawl, psychology, storytelling, and brutality.
