    [1990-07-28-WWF-Saturday Night's Main Event] Rick Rude vs Ultimate Warrior

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    This 100 times over. I agree that it undercuts all of the booking leading up to it, but when was that ever going to not be the case once the feud hit the ring? Rude makes Warrior seem competent and badass in a way that not many guys figured out how to do. If nothing else, that must have some value to the guys upstairs.

    [1990-07-28-WWF-Saturday Night's Main Event] Mr Perfect vs Tito Santana

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    Really good little sprint that I enjoyed a lot. The Heenan signal to Perfect before he distracted the ref was absolute genius. Really wish Tito had been given more of a higher profile role in the WWF based on his matches with the guys who could go.

    [1990-07-28-IWA-TV] Tommy Rogers vs Jimmy Backlund

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    Fun match between two guys who probably should have gone farther based on in-ring talent. DDP on commentary is pretty good even if his partner needs to be replaced.

    [1990-07-28-WWF-Saturday Night's Main Event] Rick Rude and Ultimate Warrior

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    This feud has gone from a nice re-invention of Rick Rude to complete and total uninteresting nonsense. Even Heenan and a game Rick Rude can't save it at this point for me.

    Anyone else catch they were looking for the mouth of the Yangtze river in Africa? Good luck on that one given it's in China.

    [1990-07-28-NWA-World Championship Wrestling] Interview: Sting & Junkyard Dog

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    Not sure what the Horsemen were trying to do to Luger. Rip his clothes off? Have they been watching too much USWA? Anyway, I guess we get across that Sting and co. are sick of the Horsemen and their shit.

    [1990-07-28-USWA-Memphis TV] Jerry Lawler & Bill Dundee vs Eddie Gilbert & Dirty White Boy / Jerry Lawler, Bill Dundee, Tessa, Eddie Gilbert & Dirty White Boy

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    It's really something when you get counter promos to Lawler's that are just as good. When he's not asked to carry the whole thing himself it gets that much better.

    [1990-07-28-WWF-Saturday Night's Main Event] Show opening

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    Let's hope Jim makes it to the end of the show. Should be a pretty fun card with lots of high profile matches.

    [1990-07-20-USWA Texas] Steve Austin & Jeannie Clark vs Chris & Toni Adams

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    I wanted Toni to start beating the shit out of Falk at the beginning of the match, but oh well. They again work an extended chinlock sequence to drag things out and Toni gets some measure of revenge. This feud is too one-sided despite how good it is. What have Toni and Chris really gotten back on Austin and Jeannie that hasn't been repaid three times over almost immediately after?

    [1990-07-27] Arsenio Hall: Rick Rude & Bobby Heenan

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    Arsenio and Bobby really have a good rapport. Rude's tights at the end were horrific in all the right ways.

    [1990-07-13-NWA-Power Hour] Louisville Slugger: Arn Anderson & Sid Vicious

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    Arn knocks this one into the upper deck. Somebody is sure gonna pay!

    [1990-07-23-ICW-TV] ICW Teen Report: Tony Atlas

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    I love how both of them were clearly enjoying themselves and getting into character. Atlas is so incredible. "I do what I wanna do! Who are you to tell me what do do?!?" Damn those fans and their demands on the world champ to go to the gym!

    [1990-07-21-USWA-Championship Sports] Kerry Von Erich poster commercial

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    Guessing this is from the 80s. Either way, not a great drawing of Kerry by any means. Hard to condemn USWA for the money grab given the nature of wrestling.

    [1990-07-13-USWA Texas] Jeff Jarrett vs Iceman Parsons

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    I was hoping somebody would hit Falk. I pretty much do every time I see him now.

    [1990-07-21-USWA-Championship Sports] Interview: John Tatum

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    Tatum is really good at cutting a fired up heel promo. Also at sounding like a douchebag.

    [1990-07-21-USWA-Championship Sports] Iceman Parsons, Sweet Brown Sugar & Jeff Jarrett

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    Jarrett and Iceman are carrying this off as well as can be expected. It's just the booking is kinda screwy, throwing Iceman into a role the crowd is probably not ready for him to be in.

    [1990-07-21-WWF-Superstars] Summerslam Report w/Gene Okerlund

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    At least they mentioned the Warrior match this time. Even so, it's not exactly in a way that makes it seem overly important.

    [1990-07-21-USWA-Memphis TV] Jerry Lawler vs Eddie Gilbert / Jerry Lawler political commercial

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    That is one tough lady judge! I mean, she can throw a guy who is letting her throw him for crying out loud. Brilliant stuff, but not as good as the in-studio match/post-match. Gilbert is really making his presence felt.

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    Not sure which I liked more, Lawler's setup of the heels or Anthony's completely psychotic promo after. Either way, great segment.

    [1990-07-19-AJPW-Summer Action Series] Steve Williams & Terry Gordy vs Jumbo Tsuruta & Great Kabuki

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    Seems to me this was more about furthering the rivalry between MVC and Hansen than anything else. If you really wanted to put over Jumbo and Kabuki, Hansen wouldn't have been there interfering.

    [1990-07-14-USWA-Memphis TV] Jerry Lawler vs The Snowman / Interview: The Snowman

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    Impressive pushups by Gaylord, but the rest is....ugh. I don't know what to think about Iceman having the belt but clearly being on the undercard. It makes sense for who they have around. But he's your world champ.

    [1990-07-14-USWA-Memphis TV] Jerry Lawler, Bill Dundee, Dirty White Boy, John Tatum and Eddie Gilbert

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    Nice long segment with some of the best talkers from Memphis AND a crazy enough interview from Tatum that it tops all of them. Great stuff.

    [1990-07-14-USWA-Memphis TV] Jerry Lawler and Dirty White Boys

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    Tony Anthony really impresses in both interviews and the ring. Lawler is a force of nature, but now on the right side of the fence.

    [1990-07-14-USWA-Memphis TV] Interview: Eddie Gilbert

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    Gilbert decking Curtis was amazing. I was wondering if they'd let Dave take a shot too, but that seemed like a bit much. Gilbert is such a great psychotic asshole here.

    [1990-07-14-WWF-Superstars] Interview: Hulk Hogan

    dawho5 replied to Loss's topic in July 1990
    Great promo from Hogan. He hits all the right notes and it got me wanting to see that match despite how likely it is to disappoint.
