[1994-02-19-AJPW-Excite Series] Kenta Kobashi & Satoru Asako vs Toshiaki Kawada & Takao Omori
Really enjoy the AJPW matches that involve the lesser names. Yeah, it makes for more predictable ending but they can be alot of fun. Asako interrupts and gets a kick in the back and one in the face for good measure by Kawada. Later Asako interferes when Kawada has Kobashi in armbar and gets a slapped around too. Finish comes with Kawada just launching Asako with the powerbomb. Kawada just had enough with him. Really good.

[1994-02-17-NJPW-Fighting Spirit] Jushin Liger & Power Warrior vs Rick & Scott Steiner
Steiners have been one of my favorites on this set so far. So with the men in this match I was expecting something really good. There are plenty of suplexes to keep me happy. Power Warrior was up and down here but I did like him clotheslining Rick and Scott one after the other. He hit some nice moves but wasn't showing the needed fire.

[1994-02-05-ECW-The Night The Line Was Crossed] Shane Douglas and Terry Funk
I probably didn't need to watch a single minute of the match before to appreciate these promos. Loved Terry's promo. He just came off so emotional. That still being champion meant so much to him. Douglas was really good too even with his potty mouth. Sherri didn't feel right here to me but she was really just off to the side anyways.

[1994-02-04-Michinoku Pro] Great Sasuke & Sato & Shiryu vs Super Delphin & Jinsei Shinzaki & Gran Naniwa
Didn't realize it was Dick Togo out there until he got in the ring. Ah, I wasn't as high on this as you guys. I loved the regular MPro spots that are fun. Shinzaki just didn't belong here. I don't think he contributed much. This match needed more TAKA. Maybe I will need to rewatch again. Good match, but again I am not as big on this as the rest of you.

[1994-02-05-ECW-The Night The Line Was Crossed] Shane Douglas vs Terry Funk vs Sabu
I have never seen this match at all. Really only thing I took from this was the crowd seemed pretty quiet for a match going 60 minutes. I was surprised it wasn't included on the ECW set so I guess it is not thought of too highly to watch in full. It looks to be a extra on the new ECW blu ray coming out so maybe I will be brave and watch it in full.

Did Dave cover SMW in the newsletter back in 1994? Would have liked to have read his comments about this match. Decent bout.

Tammy came off so confident which I think was really impressive for the age she was here. She just had it.

Dory should have customized his hat as a weapon ala Oddjob from Goldfinger.

Watching this couldn't help but think about how when Bret starting doing promos he put sunglasses on to make it easier on himself. Owen follows suit here.

[1994-01-31-WWF-Raw] 1-2-3 Kid, Marty Jannetty, Razor Ramon & IRS
A Johnny Polo match. Curious me would have liked to have seen more. IRS says the Rocker Dropper should be outlawed and that it is illegal. Perfect would later bring up that it can break you neck. I think it was a requirement of heel announcers to make comments about the move. These days it would just end up on the banned list.
