The stadium was pretty much full for that 7 hours. I can't imagine going to watch a 7 hour wrestling event but I say nothing below someone being murdered in the 5th row is going to get me excited by hour 5.</p><p> </p><p> The crowd would've probably been more hyped for AJ vs. Nak if they didn't just watch 6 previous hours of wrestling. Charolette vs. Asuka sapped all the energy out of the crowd and no amount of cool down angles could bring them back.</p>

If its Steve Austin -> Shane Douglas I would weather the storm.... I've seen people in the Random Screenshot Thread keep guys like Undertaker and Triple H and still be able to gain prestige after shows.</p>
  3. My all-time favorite example of this is in the early years of ROH. Samoa Joe went on a nearly two year run as this unstoppable ROH champion who legitimized the title and made it feel important. After two one hour draws between them, many expected CM Punk to finally be the one who beat him in the third match of their trilogy. But Punk didn't need the win, because he was already a made man and arguably the most over guy in the company. Joe beat him in that third match, and very soon after dropped the belt in a shock to a newer, rising talent named Austin Aries. That match skyrocketed Aries into a top spot in the company overnight, and beating the dominant Joe did far more for him than it possibly could have done for Punk.

     

    I really feel like I have to start PM'ing you on what ROH matches I should watch lol.

  4. And the IWC would have crapped all over it because Carmella doesn't even deserve a title shot let alone to beat the streak. Using Ellsworth to win the MITB got her enough heat and that dried up long ago. Vince made the right choice in Charlotte, IMO, but I'll concede that he might have jumped the gun and ended the streak too early.

     

    Honestly Charlotte was already made and didn't need to break the streak (she was champ for christ's sake). Now if you had Asuka go over and take Charlotte off of TV for a few months and refocus her on getting back at Asuka at Summerslam then she would have something to gain at that point and would've been perfectly justified.

     

    Now where does Asuka go from here? Her streak was killed and there is nothing to do with her other than feed her down the line or take her off of TV for a few months if you want to build her up again. (If anyone on the roster deserves a heel turn it is the Empress of Tomorrow at this point) When someone breaks a streak its best to do it with someone who is on the brink that way that win can legitimize them. What did Kevin Nash gain by killing Goldberg's streak? Nothing because he was already made and Goldberg's momentum was killed and not properly payed forward. If you remember Big Kev's next loss was the finger poke of doom (Yay! for swerves). Now if somebody coming up in the ranks at the time would've taken the streak it would legitimize them big time.

     

    Did Brock benefit from killing Undertaker's streak....well yes he did lmao because before then he had two big losses to both John Cena and Triple H. It was a win or die situation if you look at it for Brock and if he would've lost that match then he would have no business even coming back.

  5. It already did. They had a major title match in ROH in 2006 (probably ROH's peak, at least as far as my own personal enjoyment), and it was amazing. Probably in my top 5 all-time favorite Danielson matches.

     

    Well I know what I'm watching for the next 20 minutes thanks!

     

     

    Here's another frame of reference thing to keep in mind: at this point, Scott Steiner's popularity in Japan is lower than that of AJ Styles and TAKA, and only slightly ahead of Knoble, just at a quick glance. When I first started Scott was one of if not the most over guy in the company, but he's nowhere near that now.

     

    That is definitely what nerfed the rating....Storytelling doesn't allow for classics unless you go with Spectacle. Only use spectacle if you have a sure fire ring general because that match can bomb if you have anything less.

It took me all weekend lol I actually chose to do the entire DeColt and Stone families for that reason. And added McFly and The DaLays because it just made sense.</div></blockquote><p> </p><p> I offer one critique is that Ricky doesn't actually look older in the ager. I at first thought it was the same render uploaded twice. Maybe give him a 5 o'clock shadow and make his face a bit more weathered in the ager.</p>

I had so many different artist styles on the same family and the continuity difference bothered me for a long time.

  10. <p>You would think that was a Big 4 PPV with those match ratings:eek: . I feel bad for the Rattlesnake but glad that Knoble got to look like a true star. How many times have you ever heard someone say that the Jung Dragons put on a MOTY contender???? I didn't have the faith of Sean vs. Unbound like you did but I'm glad that was a classic.</p><p> </p><p>

    Interesting you have Roode swoop in and take the TV title from them all lol. He is such a GLORIOUS troll.</p>
