You're completely off base as usual.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
Nah, you're criticising wrestlers because they do high moves that are entertaning and dissing their moves, without moves you don't get matches.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
Too much of anything gets boring. The same holds true with wrestling. Storylines have nothing to do with it. A good wrestler can do a vertical suplex and get ten times the reaction that the Briscoes get for any of their MOVEZ~!

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
Each to their own I guess. Still no reason to bash a team that arguably puts their body on the line as much if not more than any other team in the wrestling business.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
I wasn't trying to bash them, I was just saying I didn't care for them. They do put their bodies on the line but they really need to tone it down. In lieu of the Benoit situation and all of the discoveries regarding post concussion syndrome in athletes watching them wrestle is scary. They're stuck in a never ending cycle of trying to top themselves which is only going to get more dangerous. They need to realize that they can entertain people without killing themselves every night.

Re: The 2008 MOTYC Thread
The Briscoe remarks from Kimbo are justified. They try to do everything each match and you get kind of burned out to it.
It was awesome when they wrestled MCMG and went all out, but it gets old after they do that twice with Steenerico, 3 times with AOTF, once against NRC, Sydal/Claudio, and whatever matches they had from Feb 07 - Dec 07. the only ones that truly stand out to me looking back at the year is their MCMG match, Jay & Stevens (and eventually Mark) vs. Steenerico from Fighting Spirit, Ladder War, and against AOTF at Final Battle. the rest is like a blur to me. i could lay out a match for you and you could name off teams they fought last year and i wouldn't need to change the lay out of the match because that's how all Briscoes matches go.
they are fucking awesome tho and are insane to see live, so no disrespect to them.

Flair can throw a *chop* and get reactions most wrestlers only dream of, so yeah...
