New Jack saying "How do you kill someone who's already dead?" was great.

[1995-03-18-USWA-TV] Brian Christopher and Bill Dundee
This is kind of an example why Memphis died a slow death during the final days. Christopher bashes all the old guys while he's a babyface and says guys like Dundee are nothing. Then you have a main event with Lawler vs Bill Dundee. If the old guys mean nothing, why should people pay to watch two old guys that mean nothing?

[1995-03-17-CMLL] Sangre Chicana vs La Fiera (Hair vs Hair)
This had a great tope by Chicana that sends Fiera into the 3rd row and some nice punches. However, Loss is right that the clipping hurts it overall. Lackluster finish to say the least.

[1995-03-17-JWP-Jazz & Soul] Mayumi Ozaki vs Dynamite Kansai (Street Fight)
This match sucked until Kansai hit a gusher and they decided to go into the ring. The "lets drag each other by the hair through the audience and choke each other with chains" got old about a minute in. Once they got in the ring, it got good even though I hate the finish. I get piledrivers are sold like a dropkick in Japan but god damn. Ozaki is piledriven through a table and no sells it 2 minutes later? Like what the hell? I'm not expecting her to sell it like death but still.

Comments that don't warrant a thread - Part 3
So that wasn't an angle and they left for real? Doesn't Damien do a lot of work behind the scenes like bookkeeping for them? It doesn't seem to be an angle. They were on a talk show tonight and Damien said they left the promotion completely including backstage stuff. Apparently it's over the Consejo guys coming in. Not good news for Perro Jr.

Comments that don't warrant a thread - Part 3
The Santo vs AAA case got delayed cause Marisela Peña wanted to force Santo to unmask in court and Santo refused. But the good news for Santo is he's probably going to gain the new Familia De Tijuana( Damien 666, Halloween, Bestia 666 and Super Nova) after they left Perros del Mal earlier this week.

What are you watching?
The episode of USWA tv where Lawler gets run over by Eddie Gilbert is interesting. First The Gilberts were fired for attacking Eddie Marlin, Lawler and Brickhouse Brown after a battle royal. Lawler and Brown beg Marlin to bring them back. Then in a interview at the studio, Marlin fires the Gilberts because Eddie said it was a rinky dink promotion. This leads to Lawler getting run down and walking away. Marlin again rehires them. If I remember right, a lot of people actually called the cops on Gilbert. Just a crazy episode. Also features Dirty White Boy giving some fat woman a bladejob right on camera.

[1995-03-17-AAA-Sin Limite] El Hijo del Santo & Octagon & Rey Misterio Jr vs Blue Panther & Psicosis & Fuerza Guerrera
This is AAA done right. Great dives by the tecnicos, awesome rudo work and a hot crowd. Loss is right that Fuerza was king here. Loved the fast low blow he did and then Octagon does one in the 3rd fall. My favorite part of the match is Santo's crazy dive to Panther laid down on the floor. Panther sells that great. Rey/Psicosis are good too in this match with Rey almost breaking his neck on a botched tope con holio into a head scissors on the floor. The fact that Fueraza vs Octagon could happen in 2012 now that Juvi is back in AAA fascinates me. Especially with Octagon rudo and Fuerza as a tecnico.

[1995-03-14-ECW-TV] Interview: Shane Douglas & Cactus Jack / Interview: Woman / Interview: Terry Funk
Yeah who knew that in a room with great talkers like Funk and Jack, Shane would be the best one during this? Nice use of flashbacks to tell the story too.

[1995-03-11-USWA-TV] Jerry Lawler vs Bill Dundee vs Brian Christopher
This was ridiculous even for Memphis. Three Ref bumps AND chain/strap finishes? And who was the heel in this? I guess Dundee?

Dave Meltzer stuff
I don't get the Okada hype. He sold ok but no way should he be IWGP champion.

[1995-03-06-WWF-Raw] Shawn Michaels vs Davey Boy Smith
This is one of the first matches I really remember liking when I became a fan. Shawn's bumping is on another level here and I really liked Sid and Cornette here too. Cornette put over Sid as a monster being afraid of him and such. The match might not be great as it seemed the crowd wasn't into it much and finish kinda sucked, but I enjoyed it.

[1995-03-04-WCW-Saturday Night] Vader and Hulk Hogan
Jimmy Hart has to be one of the most bravest managers of all time. He wasn't afraid of Lawler or Flair. This was typical Hogan though.
