Posted August 23, 201015 yr comment_5454875 Holy shit Rob Van Dam botched some shit horribly here. Maybe it's because Saturn beat the piss out of him early in this, but he was just garbage in big parts of this. I did enjoy the dive train on this and the subsequent run of spots was pretty good too. Van Dam almost got killed by Kronus on some bizarre spot where Kronus powerbombed him on the top rope and just let him full in a heap on his neck to the floor. There is a really cool cutoff spot where Sabu goes to put Kronus through a table and Saturn runs from behind and kicks his legs out from under him with the end result being Sabu taking a vicious pump handle slam to the floor. Down the stretch the Elims isolate Sabu who keeps trying to run in and make the save. At one point Kronus hits an awesome backhand on Sabu to keep him out of the ring. A few seconds later they hit the Total Elimination on RVD and Kronus dives onto Sabu to stop him from making the save for the clean finish. There was a lot of silly shit in this, some bad looking stuff from Van Dam and the early part wasn't very good, but I liked enough of this to put it through especially given how loved this series was at the time.
October 17, 201015 yr comment_5457326 +Eliminators v. Rob Van Dam/Sabu Low End Nomination - FanCam 12-27-96 - I knew this would be full of spots but I was happy that they were hitting all of their stuff clean early on. The Kronus-RVD kicking duel was a little sloppy and then RVD fucks up on a splash or Kronus was slow meeting him. Anyway, this was ok but I wouldn’t even call it low-end. Just curious, but is their famous match already on the set? If so, certainly no need for this one.
November 11, 201015 yr comment_5458219 The Eliminators (John Kronus & Perry Saturn) vs. "Homicidal, Suicidal, & Genocidal" Sabu & Rob Van Dam (12/27/96) This was a fun match but goddamn there was some really botched shit here especially by RVD so I can't move this forward.
