How to book finger poke of doom?


Recommended Posts

Unless you want to capture the authentic frustration and disappointment from the fans, and really tank your main event.

One minute match. Pinfall. Storytelling. Keep it Simple on Hogan. Keep Strong on Nash. Protect, if that's the one I'm thinking of that tells workers not to work too hard or take risks.

This could potentially be the worst rated main event for large promotion in TEW history. Would be curious at what rating this would get considering they're both over.

My guess would be a 64-71.  Star power would be too great.

Funny part is, this is considered one of the key things that cost WCW the war and put all the eyeballs on WWF going forward, but in 97, Shawn and hhh basically did the same thing when Slaughter booked them in a match. hhh even exaggerated the Ultimate Warrior rope run for like a full minute before pinning Shawn. 

Because Nash and Hogan BAD. Triple H and Shawn GOOD!

Because it was the European title and both guys were buddies, which everyone knew. So it wasn't as shocking or despised because of those facts.

Nash and Hall were both the leaders of opposing factions and the fans thought they were getting a legitimate main event World title match. Very big stretch to even compare the two.
