I swear every time they show that first closeup of Vader's eye it makes me cringe and rub my eye instinctively. Really lively match from two bulls. The short little elbows and shots early on were especially vicious. I have never seen the rematch before so I eagerly look forward to that match on the set. This match ended a run of 4 real good matches on this dome show.

In todays update: --Coveh Solaimani is looking for a Ric Flair ring worn robe and is willing to pay $15,000 for the right robe. He can be reached at [email protected] or at 804-316-8177 Does Ric himself not have any robes he could give up. 15k for him seems like a nice pay day.

thats a different show? I just assumed the portion with Dave/Dylan was the same as on talk shoe... If that is the case I may have to resub to Observer this month for that, HOF issue, and Dave/Dylan debating on the Board.

2 episodes in one week????.... awesome guys I just finished the HOF show and enjoyed the discussion. I think a Patera type analysis for someone like Tanahashi would be interesting to see if their is real sustained evidence of attendances being up with him on top.

I definitely see Martel's wrestling ability getting wasted by this gimmick but I do have a soft spot for his model character as he was one of my least favorites growing up and it was great to see the debut of Arrogance. I again love Vince inserting his little comments in the pauses of the interview.

Interesting match that was also a lot of fun. The only thing I have ever really heard hyped up from the 2/10/90 show was the Vader/Hansen match but two matches in and having watched the Hansen/Vader match recently and knowing I liked it a good deal, I am willing to say this may actually be one of the most consistent dome shows ran. This match had a "greatest hits" atmoshphere to it but I loved the crowd really reacting to Jumbo and Kido getting him in the armbar was an insane reaction. Very fun match.

2) Not sure what the ticket prices are for each section here but for WM 27, we would have been in the the equivalent of about Section 125, halfway up and that was a good view of the ring and the tickets with fees and all were around $100. I would say anything in the 300 section will pretty much have you staring at the titantron.

Fun match with both guys really knowing how to rile up the crowd and get them invested. Zbysko's timing of the low blow was magically done and Saito getting the crowd behind him was really fun. I have not seen the Saito AWA stuff yet but of what I have seen of him this was my favorite match of his.

Really mat based match but everything was applied tightly and Fujiwara added in a lot of nice touches. Finish was really brutal with Fuji locking in the ankle lock but him being too attached to the hold and that being is downfall as he gets choked out from Maeda. This seems like a match that has more of a lasting positive effect than an emotional roller coaster while the match is taking place.

A lot of stuff going on here. Buzz bumps like a madmen and Muta gets a tremendous face reaction. The crowd does hate the Horseman and frantically chant for sting. We get the schmozz at the end and Sting is legit injured. I got two questions out of all of this. 1. What was Stings actual injury and how did he hurt it? I couldn't see definitively. 2. What were the original plans for this angle? Was Sting going to be the champ at Wrestlewar.
