One of Bischoff's best moves was bringing in the cruiserweight guys.

Yup. Bischoff saw that it was something Vince wasn't doing.
Kinda like TNA and the X-Division. But TNA doesn't exist, so fuck them.

Keeping Score and I once covered the Daytona 500, and set broadcasting back 122 years in the process. True story! |

How come they weren't ripping on Malenko for using the ropes? Was it ok back then?

This match is going to suck. Tenta and Bubba. Tough to follow Malenko/Mysterio

Is anybody here old enough to remember when getting thrown over the top rop was a dq? Same thing with coming off the top rope?
I thought it was Dr. X or something like that , that caused the top rope rule?

Outstanding match. Rey was excellent in his youth. They had an equally good match the following night on Nitro. That was one of five great televised matches they had in 1996. Maybe I'll review them. |

Kevin Sullivan vs. SomeOtherGuy I just called 1-900-909-9900 to find out more about this Benoit guy. I haven't seen him in awhile. Was he in Japan? |

I just found out from Dusty that Sullivan is at home in the bathroom. Apparently he was taking the same antibiotics I'm on.

Dusty's use of the word "plunda" is enjoyable.

Great Arn Anderson promo as always.
I wish they still did pre and post-match promos. They got wrestlers over so much more effectively than the methods used nowadays.
