Tag Tournament Round One: Blocks AG-AV








Comments

  1. Just HAD to put LOD against the Demos right away.

    ReplyDelete
  2. Blame the random draw. Had I noticed before it saved I would have moved one into the top bracket and the other into the bottom.

    ReplyDelete
  3. Demos all the way! Also, looking forward to Eddie wrestling himself in the third round.

    ReplyDelete
  4. I also said this in other tourney thing tonight:
    One thing this tournament shows is how so many bad to mediocre teams have won the tag titles

    ReplyDelete
  5. I know it's the LOD incarnation and not the Road Warriors...but based on the RW match versus the Faces of Fear from the last Nitro recap, I've lost all respect for Hawk and by extension Animal as wrestlers.

    ReplyDelete
  6. It really is a shame the 2 man power trip didn't go farther.


    This is something WWE could bring back: 2 rivals who reluctantly team-up and completely just dominate everyone and the plucky underdogs end their reign.

    ReplyDelete
  7. Was the MOM title reign just because Mable was so huge that the current tag champs couldn't kick out in time?

    ReplyDelete
  8. God I hated the Brothers of Destruction.

    ReplyDelete
  9. Then you hate America

    #America

    ReplyDelete
  10. That was at least the rumor.

    ReplyDelete
  11. I have been trying to base my votes on historical significance. Demolition is probably my favorite team ever, but the Road Warriors were legit main eventers in the NWA and were involved in more of the top storylines than the Demos were. It sucks that they had to match up so early in this thing!

    ReplyDelete
  12. Same here. At a time when the WWF had a stacked tag team division, we had to watch those two stink up the joint

    ReplyDelete
  13. If Demolition wins, I'm burning this place to the ground.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Who do you think should win?

    ReplyDelete
  15. Demolition had a much better run in WWF so I gave them the nod.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Based on WWF only, Demos win easily. I am trying to take the Warriors/LOD as one and the same though

    ReplyDelete
  17. The whole thing? Steiners.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Demolition had a better WWE run then the LOD.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Nobody even knew that Men on a Mission held the tag team titles until after they lost them.

    ReplyDelete
  20. True confession....I've *never* cared for the Road Warriors, even as a kid.

    ReplyDelete
  21. They were mediocre WWE tag champs.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I'm not voting on their WWE runs.

    ReplyDelete
  23. And? They were still fucking awesome.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I' m voting based on who has the sexiest buns.

    ReplyDelete
  25. Also, I don't think much of their buns.

    ReplyDelete
  26. It all counts. There are no voting guidelines here.

    ReplyDelete
  27. Right on. I hate any team that involved Big Show, Kane, or Undertaker. Just ruins the tag team dynamic when you throw a singles monster into the division just to occupy him.

    ReplyDelete
  28. Jerishow to the finals or WE RIOT.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Like, for example, Daniel Bryan and Kane?

    ReplyDelete
  30. And you'll keep saying it until someone upvotes you.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Murdoch and Cade should have been a cornerstone of the tag division for years. But Kane and Big Show just HAD to have those titles.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Steiners had wonderful asses.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Why am I not surprised you like Cade and Murdoch?

    ReplyDelete
  34. Cade wasn't going to live that many years.

    ReplyDelete
  35. I'm voting on their AWA runs and neither of Demolition ever competed in the AWA. For that reason alone I voted for Demolition.

    ReplyDelete
  36. Their asses looked great in those colorful outfits they wore in the WWF. Go back and watch some clips. Great ass sweat.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Too many needle marks.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Maybe a long tag team title reign would have given him a reason to prolong his life. Would you have let your demons get the better of you if you had Murdoch in your corner?

    ReplyDelete
  39. Murdoch would further enable the demons.

    ReplyDelete
  40. And who do Kane and Big Show end up dropping the belts to ? THE SPIRIT SQUAD, What a waste of a run.

    ReplyDelete
  41. You know, it's kind of odd that Darsow never had a stint in the AWA given that he went to high school and trained with a bunch of guys who did work there.

    ReplyDelete
  42. but they didn't get the IC title and World title while being tag champs

    ReplyDelete
  43. I enjoyed what Show and Jericho were doing back in the summer and fall of 09

    ReplyDelete
  44. Underrated unfortunate early matchup:

    Jeri-Show vs. Bookdust

    ReplyDelete
  45. I knew about Sunny but didn't know it was a common thing with him.

    ReplyDelete
  46. YankeesHoganTripleHFanJanuary 1, 2015 at 9:19 PM

    Read his book

    ReplyDelete
  47. Yeah I know. I love both teams. The amount I hate big show now is the same amount I loved him as Jericho's partner. I voted JeriShow.

    ReplyDelete
  48. I was without work for 6 months when my former Co-worker finally recommended me to start freelancing from home... It was only after I earned $5000 in my first month when I actually believed I could do this for a living! Now I am happier than ever... I work from home and I am my own boss now like I always wanted... I see a lot of unhappy people around me, working the same old boring job that's sucking the life out of them day by day... Everytime I see someone like that I say START FREELANCING MAN! This is where I startedhttp://GoogleHomeCareerJobs/Get-StartProfit946.... THANKS FOR WATCHING ...

    ReplyDelete
  49. Murdoch and Cade? Fucking boring as shit. The tag teams today are so much better.

    ReplyDelete
  50. While Liz was more important in WWF run, I will admit Liz in WCW was when she was at her hottest...damn that leather she wore...

    ReplyDelete
  51. I thought Sunny denied it.

    ReplyDelete
  52. Rude? Everything I've read post death is that he was Mr. Family man.

    ReplyDelete
  53. well thats just like your opinion man

    ReplyDelete
  54. I just had to go with Demolition.

    ReplyDelete
  55. Yeah, that's what I always thought too.

    ReplyDelete
  56. Demolition gets a bad rap as being Road Warriors knock offs when really they were very cool in their own right.

    ReplyDelete
  57. I can see Dawn Marie getting banged behind one.

    ReplyDelete
  58. You upvoted your own post?

    ReplyDelete
  59. Wasn't Vince Russo's number one priority in WCW to get Liz to lose a bra and panties match?

    ReplyDelete
  60. LOD were glorified journeymen. Demolition was the #1 team, in the #1 tag division of all time (Bulldogs, Harts, Rockers, Brainbusters, etc), during the #1 run in the history of the business.

    ReplyDelete
  61. The last Demos vs. LOD match on the BOD was like 52/48 or something ridiculously close..

    ReplyDelete
  62. If I don't agree with myself, why will anyone else?

    ReplyDelete
  63. There was a reason Demolition faded away after the Legion Of Doom signed with the WWE. They were shitty imitations of the Road Warriors that didn't deserve to be in the same ring.


    Fuck Axe, Smash & Crush..


    Fuck Demolition!!

    ReplyDelete
  64. They were having fun with the WCW universe, Tony Schiavone. I love it, hahaha.

    ReplyDelete
  65. Liz was afraid Bret would drag her to his hotel room and make her watch his match with Bulldog at Summersam 92.

    ReplyDelete
  66. $6000 for a BMW?? Y'all bots be tripping!!

    ReplyDelete
  67. He did stuff like that to pretty much every female in WCW. I don't think he thought women had any value at all in wrestling unless they're getting into cat fights and getting their tops torn off. Not that that's an unusual mindset in wrestling mind you.

    ReplyDelete
  68. Haven't read anything, but I assume they hooked up when she started managing him.

    ReplyDelete
  69. I'm no fan of Demolition or the Road Warriors...but had to give LOD the win here.

    ReplyDelete
  70. That's about the last time I remember Big Show being tolerable. But Bookdust was fantastic--they get my vote here.

    ReplyDelete
  71. Do you guys seriously think one of the Moondogs, the Repo Man and Super Machine could beat the most dominant tag team of all-time??

    ReplyDelete
  72. I could've sworn that Lanny spoke briefly about this saying that Bischoff asked Macho if it was ok to bring Liz in and Macho was totally all cool with it by then. Not really sure tho

    ReplyDelete
  73. 1) Ax and Smash could actually work. Well, Animal could a little, but point still stands.
    2). By the time LOD came in, Ax was phased out, and Smash & Crush had NO chemistry together.

    ReplyDelete
  74. Bret had a bunch of chicks on the side. Back in the early 90's I was good friends with a "ring rat" that used to tell me about some of the girls that hooked up with Bret.

    ReplyDelete
  75. Don't u remember she got wasted and attacked Bret at a convention a few years ago? She was screaming she was the best pussy he ever got. Lol. Seriously

    ReplyDelete
  76. Hawk was a pretty good wrestler when they let him be. Animal was pretty much just power moves.. but they made it work. There was no more dominant team than the LOD in the late 80's.


    Shit.. La Resistance are better workers than the Big Show & Kane, but no fucking way are they beating them..

    ReplyDelete
  77. Lex was married, with kids, and he still never hid the fact that he was dating Liz. Balls

    ReplyDelete
  78. Savage was such a smart dude in pro wrestling. Wish he didn't take so many steroids in the late 90s though

    ReplyDelete
  79. Meh...I always thought Hawk was shit, and Animal bored me to tears. In any case, in kayfabe terms, I could see your point, but considering Big Show and Kane lost to the fucking Spirit Squad, well...

    ReplyDelete
  80. Have you seen recent pics of Dawn? She has gotten huge. As fat as sunny has ever been, probably more. Sad.

    ReplyDelete
  81. As nerdy as this sounds (and I'm sure someone here will question my manhood over this one), I wouldn't wanna see Liz objectified like all the other late '90's wrestling whores. She's Miss Elizabeth....the First Lady of Wrestling! She was almost motherly to those of us that were kids in the '80s. Leave the half-naked slut gimmick to the Sunnys and Trish Stratuses. That's beneath Liz.

    ReplyDelete
  82. What's more Murica than Limp BIzkit ?

    ReplyDelete
  83. I really like demolition but no way man, LOD

    ReplyDelete
  84. Mmm I'd like to be beneath Liz....oooooooh yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah!

    ReplyDelete
  85. I have no idea who Lance Cade and Trevor Murdoch were, I just couldn't in good conscience vote for Men on a Mission.

    ReplyDelete
  86. One strange tidbit -- on an episode of WCW Internet Insiders (which was
    an internet audio show that ran from 1997 till 1999, sort of half shoot,
    half kayfabe) Hogan and Savage briefly appeared and had the following odd exchange:

    Madden: "Hollywood, what was it like for you to take that step (turning heel), it's one thing to talk about it, but to pull the trigger that night must have left a lot of things behind for ya."

    Hogan: "It did, it felt good. It's kinda like when Macho dumped Liz, he'd been wanting to pull the trigger on her for a long time, getting tired of getting beat up financially, so he pulled the trigger and really shot himself in the foot."

    Savage: "And I didn't realize I was shooting blanks."

    Hogan: "You almost hit me, I was right next to her."

    Savage: "Actually you were on top."

    ReplyDelete
  87. Yeah that was in his shoot. I believe he said he thought it almost worked and that they'd almost got back together.

    ReplyDelete
  88. I've heard this but I've also heard she was actually running a boutique in the Miami area. I doubt she was so broke she was working retail in the mall, but according to something I read it was Zane Bresloff that discovered her working there.

    ReplyDelete
  89. I don't know, but it was certainly my number one priority.

    ReplyDelete
  90. Sunny circa-1997 was the best pussy that ANYONE could've gotten.

    ReplyDelete
  91. Agreed. Im voting on their Wrestlefest run personally.

    ReplyDelete
  92. How dare you. You totally forgot being forced to be someone's personal assistant based on a match outcome she's not involved in.

    ReplyDelete
  93. That's just beyond creepy.

    ReplyDelete
  94. Well, I don't think she'd put up much of a fight these days.

    ReplyDelete
  95. I'm talking since then.

    ReplyDelete
  96. 96is 97ish, absolutely.

    ReplyDelete
  97. Whats murdoch up to? I always liked him. Make him a wyatt ASAP.

    ReplyDelete
  98. I'm too scared too look. I admit to having a thing for Dawn. She just looked like an amazing fuck. Not someone you'd want to marry, but just someone you'd want to have the dirtiest, nastiest, stankiest sex with.

    ReplyDelete
  99. A) I laughed, so well done
    B) What does that say about me?
    C) You're gonna need a LOT of lube.

    ReplyDelete
  100. Yeah but those fucking go-go boots and tight jeans, though. FUCK. Total MILF city. Except for the not actually being a mother part.

    ReplyDelete
  101. ... I think I just became a huge Vince Russo Apologist.

    ReplyDelete
  102. So sad to get LOD/Demo in the first round, but I will always like the Demos more. I actually saw them first (didn't get much NWA up here in Canada), and loved them immediately. The LOD just never felt as cool. It doesn't help that I missed their most-dominant runs, and only saw them as the Stop & Start tag team that'd show up for a few months then leave again. The Demos were dominant for YEARS. Imagine any other era where the Hart Foundation & Bulldogs would have multi-year droughts without the tag belts.

    ReplyDelete
  103. (Bret pauses the TV, circles portion of the screen with a red magic marker)
    "See Liz, look, right here. Can you see how Davey's eyes are closed? He was actually full unconscious at point and I basically had to superplex myself. I'm sorry, is there something in your eye? Oh, cause it looked like it might be watering a little. Um, you ever seen a man win a world title with a dislocated finger? Well you're about to! And there IS a box of Kleenex right here, should you need it."

    ReplyDelete
  104. Don't worry - Linda had no idea who Lance Cade was either ... though she may have met him once

    ReplyDelete
  105. FAT ASSES!

    ReplyDelete
  106. When you say U, they say SO? Really?

    ReplyDelete
  107. I had an even bigger crush on her front

    ReplyDelete
  108. church, when you list them as The Road Warriors you have to take everything into consideration espec. their NWA run.

    ReplyDelete
  109. The doc is weak; no analysis of major programs, for the most part. And Lanny Poffo is a defensive, self-absorbed, off-putting host.

    ReplyDelete
  110. Well....Savage was gay.

    ReplyDelete
  111. And miscarriages. Nothing beats a good miscarriage angle

    ReplyDelete
  112. I liked MILF Liz too, but don't underestimate the power of early early WWF Liz. She was smokin. Her worst was probably late WWF when it looked like they were dressing her in things from Sapphire's wardrobe.

    ReplyDelete
  113. My favorite is the Wrestlemanias at Trump Plaza where the entrance ways are so narrow that fans on both sides can touch the wrestlers and during the WM4 tournament, she has to enter four times and looks completely miserable because fans are probably attempting to grope her.

    ReplyDelete
  114. Superstar Billy Graham's only memorable call:


    "SHE TOOK OFF HER DRESS!"

    ReplyDelete
  115. Isn't it ironic that the guy who's spouts that phrase has the most petty, business-preventing, grudges of anyone (Punk, Angle, Chyna)

    ReplyDelete
  116. Never heard this one. Can you explain it? If I were to guess it was when he died and she was running for senate and she was asked about him. Am I close?

    ReplyDelete
  117. Liz looked so good in the WWF and then just looked like a scary old lady at a cougar bar in WCW.

    ReplyDelete
  118. Bummer. I got it for Christmas (along with the Paul Heyman blu-ray) and have yet to watch it. I'm sure it's still good stuff though.

    ReplyDelete
  119. Yet, her moments of true emotion(Wrestlemania IV and VII) come off as that much more genuine because of it.

    ReplyDelete
  120. I saw it a couple of months ago. It was really interesting, definitely. There are bits of it that were taken out of context online regarding the Macho/Steph rumours, so don't expect to find too much dirt.


    It's good but to be honest, the most depressing WWE production I've ever seen. I've not wanted to watch it again since despite it being really high quality.

    ReplyDelete
  121. Nothing good can come from working closely with your ex-wife everyday

    ReplyDelete
  122. Agreed, really weak on his WCW stuff, I was disappointed.

    ReplyDelete
  123. So disappointing in all honesty. Lanny comes off not looking good in this. The bit about savage locking liz in locker rooms and stuff and him sort of defending it was weird especialy as everyone said how obsessive and controling savage was.

    ReplyDelete
  124. I remember scummy Russo doing everything he could to get Liz as undressed as possible at every turn. I am honestly surprised that Savage didn't try and kick that shit-eating grin off of Russo's face at some point.

    ReplyDelete
  125. Except rape or necrophilia! Just ask good ol' HHH!

    ReplyDelete
  126. Depressing? Because you miss Macho or was it something specific? Was it a downer of a doc in tone overall or something?

    ReplyDelete
  127. Links? I'm curious as to where you saw these "recent pics", as the last thing I saw of her was like, a head-shot of her realtor page or something like that.

    ReplyDelete
  128. Got it in one

    He died in the midst of her senate run and she basically swerved it with a "who him?" Response

    ReplyDelete
  129. The tone. There's a lot of "Just when he had found happiness..." throughout, whether about Liz, or his last wife etc.

    ReplyDelete
  130. Did she hook up with Luger before or after she became his manager/valet?

    ReplyDelete
  131. She looked so bad at WM7, that I had to look twice to make sure it was her

    ReplyDelete
  132. I think Pat Patterson tells the story that he had to help escort her to the ring because the aisle was so narrow

    ReplyDelete
  133. She was married briefly from 96-97 to a Miami lawyer

    ReplyDelete
  134. It was also rather self-absorbed of him to read the poem he wrote for Randy's wedding, and his smug tone when he said "Not a dry eye in the house" was just gross.

    ReplyDelete
  135. No real discussion of his programs with Warrior or Roberts, either.
