Rock N Roll Express & Butch Reed vs. Steve Williams, Kamala & One Man Gang (2/25/85) (House 20) (15:16)

Hacksaw Duggan & Terry Taylor vs. Rick Steiner & Sting (12/21/86) (Bollom 13.1) (15:18)

- Kris: low end candidate

- Phil: Duggan clothesline puts this over the top

Phil, is this low end to you except for the clothesline?

Terry Taylor vs. John Tatum (8/17/86) (Bollum 11.2) (13:33)

 

This match is a must, way better then a ton of things which have already gone through. Kris didn't vote no on this, so I don't think there is actually much of a divide

 

Micheal Hayes & Buddy Roberts vs. Ted Dibiase & Terry Taylor (5/25/86) (UWF 23) (12:42)

 

This should make it, move my endorsement to hardcore

The divide comes from Kris calling it a low-end nomination. You disagreed. That is a divide. this isn't necessarily a yes/no divide. It is to guage where these matches stand.

 

I'll move the 5/25/86 match to the category.

Also, at this point, I have been adding up the matches and I think we are going to get at least 125 matches on ten discs with maybe as many as 135. Depending on where we end up when this is all said and done, I want to give everyone at least one EXEMPTION MATCH where they see something in a match that got axed that someone else might not see. If time allows, we might each get two. However, as we get to the end, we have to make tough choices and fun matches and low end nominations aren't going to cut it in this set. There are also going to be matches that end up on here that at least one of us do not like. There are several that I do not enjoy that are already in the file.

For the matches with divisions here are my top 5 (no particular) order

 

Ted DiBiase vs. Bob Roop (4/2/82) (TV 11) (8:32)

Terry Taylor vs. John Tatum (8/17/86) (Bollum 11.2) (13:33)

Killer Khan v. Chris Adams (9/9/84) (also you have Kris listed as a No vote here, but I don't think he actually voted on this match yet)

"Dr. Death" Steve Williams vs. Terry Gordy (12/26/86)

The Fantastics vs. Bill Dundee & Dutch Mantell (8/10/85)

 

Here are five I voted for which I could let go

Matt Borne & Ted DiBiase vs. Mr. Olympia & Iron Mike Sharpe (11/24/82) (TV 25) (7:15)

Chavo Guerrero vs. Gino Hernandez (1/5/83) (TV 28) (4:21)(5:51) (10:12)

Hacksaw” Butch Reed vs. Terry Taylor (8/9/84)

Ted DiBiase vs. Buzz Sawyer (6/8/86)

Rock N Roll Express & Butch Reed vs. Steve Williams, Kamala & One Man Gang (2/25/85)

The no vote should be mine, not Kris. I'll edit in the correction.

 

For 12/26/86, there wasn't a divide but I got no sense from your comments where you stood on the match. I want you to watch the 12/28 match first and see where you stand after that.

 

We'll see where Kris is on what matches he does not mind getting rid of and go from there. However, now is the time to start making cuts. We can put the dropped matches in purgatory for now and always add them back if time permits.

I am not sure about the JIP Houston Williams v. Gordy match now, it was pretty similar to the PPW one, I even think it might have had alot of the same spots. I mean it is Williams v. Gordy, so it rules. Will watch the Houston and see if it is as identical as I think it is.

Hacksaw Duggan & Terry Taylor vs. Rick Steiner & Sting (12/21/86) (Bollom 13.1) (15:18)

 

Put this on, wouldn't mind hearing others thoughts on it (and it would be nice if fucking Tom actually wrote about what he watched) but this was worthy

I am going to put a freeze on movement in this category until I can get the category taken care of first. Once that is wiped out, we'll work on this section. I am working on your discs now.

With our chat tonight, I am closing this section and opening up a new thread.
