I never really paid attention, but after the brief house show program with Savage, Andre's quality of opponents really took a nose-dive... 1. Jake Roberts, as a babyface, was pretty hard to watch in the ring. Every match was: Get beat up, fail at going for the snake bag, get beat up more, grab snake, finish. It meant making sometimes inferior opponents having to carry the match because he never strayed from this formula. I could watch a tape of Roberts promos and consider his WM VI promo one of the best ever, but I just can't stand watching his matches. 2. Big John Studd. Show me one good studd match. Ever. 3. The Warrior. Short and sweet, the matches were either 30-second laughers, or ten-minute jokes. Warrior wasn't that good and Andre was unwilling to really make him look good. After that, it was teaming with Haku, with Haku doing 90% of the work. |

Over the years, watching more older rasslin', I've come to find new found appreciation for guys like Tito Santana, Greg Valentine, Adrian Adonis, and Bob Orton. I guess as a kid, I found Santana and Valentine too boring (it WAS the era of cartoon gimmicks) and the latter two I had seen so little of, I had no real opinion. Now for two that I've done complete flip flops, one more extreme than the other. The first... Haku. I hated him as a kid, and even up through my teen years, but over the years, I've grown to like him and appreciate what he brought to the tabe. The other... Dino Bravo. Yes, throw the stones. He wasn't THAT bad, as long as it wasn't in the ring with lumps like... Hercules. No one else has turned me sour more than Herc'. As a kid I liked him, and maintained my fondness for Power & Glory, but watching more and more of his stuff... Ew. Total garbage. Ass. Whatever you want to use to describe someone in a negative light. I would rather watch that Andre/JYD match from France than another Hercules match. |

Watching some random stuff from 1998, and I LOVED the WWF's plan of trying to make the Legion of Doom a fresh act... giving them slightly different pattern tights, told them to grow in their hair, and give them Sunny, the Managerial Heat Sucking Machine, as their inspiration. I don't think I'm alone in saying that didn't work. |

One I remember and liked was as the two walk into a fine dining establishment, the waiter (or maybe it was maitre'd) asked Regal if he wanted Eaton removed from the place Then when Eaton was eating, he blew his nose on his fancy clothes |

I remember them teaming as Bad Attitude for a few matches on Worldwide. They seemed to be getting a medium push and then they were dropped as a team. I don't remember how long after Eaton joined Regal to form the Blue Bloods |

Was just thinking of the 1994 King of the Ring. Throughout the show, they were running a spot promoting the "New Generation", and then they ended the show with Lawler vs. Piper, which happend to get more hype and attention than the Champion vs. Champion match for the WWF Title. Did I miss something? |

I don't typically keep up with the wrestling news, but I guess Hogan's ex-wife is accusing him of, at one time, having a homosexual relationship with Brutus Beefcake. While I know I've made my fair share of jokes refering to Beefer as Hogan's lap dog and butt buddy, it was only in the context of how it seemed like wherever Hogan was, Beefcake was right behind him... no pun intended. It's kind of sucky for her to say that if it's untrue, and if it is, big deal. |

Oh, oh! I need to re-hash MINE: Remember in 1992 when Hogan (during the Sid/BOGUS angle) said Brutus was "my friend to the end"? There ya' go. And it also makes those 1985 chants of "Brutus Fruitcake" seem relevant. |
