Posted July 26, 201015 yr comment_5453586 Danny Doring v. Jerry Lynn (EXTRA) This was way better than I would have thought. Story is basically that Doring keeps getting upperhand but is too much of a pussy to go up on the ropes or do anything to really keep sustained offense on Lynn. Lynn wipes out Doring and Roadkill on three different occasions with massive dives. At one point Doring feigns an injury drawing the ref into the corner and Roadkill hits a rope walking elbow smash that almost caves in Lynn's chest. Doring takes the fall after finally getting caught on the top rope. Pretty good. I'll peg it as an extra. Tracy Smothers v. Al Snow I think the end result of this project is going to be pretty great, but a side result is going to be me trying to convince you to do an FBI set. Hell I may do one myself. This is just fun as fuck. Pre-match Tracy dance routine, the FBI getting pelted with heads and Tracy hiding behind the Italian flag with Tommy Rich's face on it, Tracy celebrating after every basic hold including a collar and elbow, tons of FBI heel schtick and interfering spots that actually worked well, Rich cursing out the crowd, Guido taking a crazy bump, Snow eating a nasty chairshot on a misdirection spot on the floor, tons of Tracy dancing in the match, a criss cross spot with two ref drop downs, Evil Judge Jeff Jones actually not sucking for once, Tommy Rich actually blading off of a shot from head, Post match with the Big Don biting a piece out of styrophome head and Tracy selling repeated shots from styrophome heads, et. Just tons of fun and some great heel work by the FBI to boot. There was enough down time in this for me to cut it short of slam dunk status, but I'm definitely endorsing it. Doug Furnas v. Chris Chetti Man Chetti sucks. Furnas was obviously just collecting a paycheck here, but Chetti was a major pile of shit here and made everything look like garbage. I was excited when I saw Furnas come out but this blew. Lance Storm v. Chris Candido This was an okay workrate sprint. They tried to set up the match as a big deal with the implication that Sunny was cheating with Storm earlier in the show but it wasn't very hateful. Storm won with Candido's finisher. Okay. Brakkus v. Taz Quick steamrolling by Taz. I was surprised to see Brakkus take two relatively big bumps. Justin Credible v. Tommy Dreamer (First Blood) This was decent. Finish was bullshit with an RVD run-in. Sandman/Axl Rotten/Balls Mahoney v. D-Von Dudley/Bubba Dudley/Big Dick Dudley v. John Kronus/Spike Dudley/New Jack Man this went on a real long time. Spike/Kronus/New Jack didn't even show up until half way through the match just in time for New Jack to hit his staple insane balcony dive through a table. Tiring. Sabu/RVD v. Bam Bam Bigelow/Shane Douglas This was pretty fun at times and meandering at others. This was more of a traditional tag gone haywire than an all out ECW clusterfuck which sort of made it novel and made the big spots a bit more explosive than they otherwise might have been. Lots of give and take stuff down the stretch of course and some pretty hilarious prop malfunctions as well. Okay.
