Movie Review: learn your moves
Summary: 5 Stars
I didn't see taboo teusday but i just want to clarify something. Shelton Benjamin's finisher is called the Exploder Suplex not a T bone suplex. They are different. Don't be like JR and mess up the names of moves. By the way Shelton deserved his shot, HBK deserved his shot, and Orton rulesMovie Review: Raw Presents Taboo Tuesday!
Summary: 4 Stars
Taboo Tuesday was great. Here is the way I think the matches should have been in order.
Eugene vs. Eric Bischoff
Eric Bischoff lost the match, nearly lost his job and then officially lost his hair.
It didn't take long for Eugene to punish his uncle and RAW General Manager with a convincing win, capped by Hollywood Hogan-esque leg drop.
It was soon revealed that WWE fans decided the loser would have his head shaved by the winner. But with the prospects of Bischoff losing his beloved hair staring him in the face, Coach stepped in and decided the choice of the fans wouldn't be honored.
That didn't go over too well with Mr. McMahon, who came to the ring and demanded Bischoff take his haircut like a man. Moreover, Coach was ordered to wear a dress for his trouble as GM and assistant left Milwaukee a quite humiliated duo.
Final voting results:
Shave Bald 58.73%
Wear Dress 20.77%
Be Servant 20.50%
Christy vs. Carmella
Carmella is still second fiddle to Christy.
After losing the $250,000 RAW Diva Search, Carmella also lost her first WWE match in a Lingerie Pillow Fight to Christy.
WWE fans selected the Pillow fight over an Aerobics Challenge and Evening Gown Match at Taboo Tuesday.
Final voting results:
Lingerie Pillow Fight 56.48%
Evening Gown Match 33.22%
Aerobics Challenge 10.30%
Fulfill Your Fantasy Battle Royal
Molly Holly felt pretty good about knocking Stacy Kiebler out of the Diva Battle Royal at Taboo Tuesday.
The problem was Women's Champion Trish Stratus was still in the ring. And Trish took advantage of Molly's lapse in judgment and tossed her to the arena floor to retain her championship.
All seven Divas wore Schoolgirl Outfits as determined by the WWE fans' voting.
Nidia, Jazz, Gail Kim and Victoria went out in that order before the final threesome were left in Milwaukee.
Final voting results:
Nurse Outfit 16.87%
French Maid 30.03%
School Girl 53.10%
World Tag Team Championship
The reign is over.
Nearly five months after capturing the World Tag Team Championship, La Resistance lost to the very team they beat for the championship back on May 31.
Since Shawn Michaels was selected by the fans to take on Triple H for the World Heavyweight Championship, Edge and Chris Benoit had to settle for facing La Resistance.
But the consolation prize didn't go over too well with Edge, who brooded over the choice of the fans all night and ultimately walked out on the match and actually jumped in his car outside the arena, leaving Benoit to fend for himself.
But the Rabid Wolverine mounted a fierce comeback, eventually applying the Crippler Crossface on Rob Conway, who tapped out after he couldn't get to the ropes.
Kane vs. Snitsky
It appears Kane will have to wait to get his ultimate revenge on Gene Snitsky.
In a bloody and hard-fought Weapons of Choice Match, the uncaring newcomer used a chain and steel chair to leave Kane in a stretcher as Lita watched in horror.
WWE fans selected the chain as the weapon of choice, but Snitsky did most of his damage with the chair, securing it around Kane's neck before jumping on it, crushing the throat of the Big Red Monster.
But Snitsky wasn't done. As Kane was being escorted out, Snitsky kicked the stretcher, sending Kane face-first onto the metal ramp.
Final voting results:
Lead Pipe 29.24 %
Steel Chair 29.93%
Chain 40.84%
Intercontinental Championship
It's all about the Benjamin.
After taking 37 percent of the vote, Shelton Benjamin certainly didn't disappoint his fans, defeating seven-time
Intercontinental Champion Chris Jericho at Taboo Tuesday in Milwaukee.
Benjamin dictated much of the action, connecting with a superplex from the top turnbuckle and hitting a flying clothesline on Jericho. He even escaped the Walls of Jericho during the match.
The lack of preparation time for Jericho may have cost him in the end as Benjamin converted his T-Bone Suplex to get the three-count and the championship.
It certainly didn't take long for WWE fans to have an impact as a championship changed hands on the very first match of Taboo Tuesday.
Final voting results:
Benjamin 37.48%
Batista 20.11%
Coach 7.01%
Christian 6.69%
Rhyno 5.77%
Maven 4.23%
Regal 3.81%
Hurricane 3.77%
Tyson Tomko 2.49%
Tajiri 2.36%
Steven Richards 2.24%
Val Venis 1.69%
Rosey 1.10%
Chuck Palumbo 0.68%
Rodney Mack 0.58%
Randy Orton vs. Ric Flair
There's no argument now, Randy Orton is indeed a Legend Killer.
In a Steel Cage of all places, Orton avoided a chair shot and then connected with the RKO to pin Flair at Taboo Tuesday.
Both Superstars were covered in blood by the time the historic match ended. WWE fans decided the match would take place in a Steel Cage instead of a Submission or Falls Count Anywhere Match.
Orton showed Flair the ultimate respect after the match, shaking Flair's hand and hugging the 16-time former World Champion.
Final voting results:
Steel Cage 68%
Falls Count Anywhere 20%
Submission Match 12%
World Heavyweight Championship
It would have been one of the most remarkable victories in Shawn Michaels' career.
Battling a serious knee injury, the fans' choice to face Triple H for the World Heavyweight Championship never succumbed to the pain, battling The Game with one good leg and a giant heart.
But before HBK could put Triple H away with Sweet Chin Music, Edge, who had previously walked out on his tag team match with Chris Benoit and seemingly left the arena, suddenly reappeared and speared the Showstopper, helping Triple H retain his championship.
Edge, still furious after losing his shot at glory, muttered over and over "It should have been me," as he left the ring.
Final voting results:
HBK 38.72%
Benoit 27.86%
Edge 33.42%
Overall, I loved Taboo Tuesday. Do u think my card or the WWE's card was better. If it was put a helpful review if not say it wasn't helpful.
Movie Review: Taboo Tuesday
Summary: 4 Stars
Hello and welcome to my review on Summerslam 2002. I use a grading system and each match receives a grade. Then to determine how the show ranks the total of the matches scores are divided by the number of matches giving the grade and a comment about whether you should buy it or not. The grading system is as follows.
Grading E- =0 - 8.33%-Waste of time and money.
E =8.33 - 16.66%-Waste of time and money.
E+ = 16.66 - 24.99%-Waste of time and money.
D- = 24.99 - 33.32%-Very poor event maybe read about it.
D = 33.32 - 41.65%-Poor event with a little something standing out.
D+ = 41.65 - 50%-Not a very good event but it just below passing.
C- = 50 - 55.55%-Just below average worth a watch.
C = 55.55 - 61%-An average event worth a renting.
C+ = 61 - 66.65%-Above average worth a purchase if you can find it for cheap.
B- = 66.65 - 72.20%-Good event with a lot of good stuff. Purchase if you're a collector or interested.
B = 72.20 - 77.75%-Good quality event which is worth purchase and should be collected.
B+ = 77.75 - 83.30%-Very high quality event with awesome matches. Must have for anyone.
A- = 83.30 - 88.85%-Excellent event, must have for anyone. Lock this one away.
A = 88.85 - 94.40%-Extremely spectacular event with lots of great stuff. Lock this away.
A+ = 94.40 - 100%-DVD of the century, must buy and keep in a very safe place.
Match One-Intercontinental Championship-Chris"Y2J"Jericho(C)Vs Shelton Benjamin-I was surprised Shelton got picked here even though he's a phenomenal athlete it just didn't seem a good pick for this match, especially considering it was a face Vs face for the opener which made it a little less good as there was no heel turns, but after the match ended there was some great sportsmanship between the men. If I was to pick who I wanted to face Y2J it would have been Steven Richards as he has been wrestling for so long yet never got any major gold except the now defunct Hardcore title and he has a great ethic for the business and he just deserves a chance. Onto the match itself was pretty ordinary compared to what I was expecting the ending was a little unique except it was stop then hit the move rather then one motion still a average match to start this show. My rating 7.75/10.
Match Two-School Girl Battle Royal-Womens Title-Trish Stratus(C)Vs Molly Holly Vs Jazz Vs Stacy Keibler Vs Nidia Vs Victoria-This was a nice little short match with it being like any mans Battle Royal except for you can be eliminated by going through the ropes as well as over them. There was some good work made by the ladies and the all round performance was good. I hope they have more matches for the ladies in the future which create excitement rather then be a filler. My rating 6.21/10.
Match Three-Chain Match-Gene Snitsky Vs Kane-This was a very good match in my opinion, Kane sold and worked so hard like a true champ should do and Snitsky well he might not be the greatest wrestler in the ring but he has a little bit of talent which is useful. There was a bit of blood from Kane especially his throat. The ending was very good as it told the story and when we thought this was the end of their rivalry there was a post match attack and someone got stretchered out. My rating 8.01/10.
Match Four-Hair Vs Hair Match-Eugene Vs Eric Bischoff-This was a nice match with the great stipulation of Hair Vs Hair. Eugene looked like he was having lots of fun out there and thats good for him as he's doing what he wants to. Eric nailed some nasty kicks in this match and Eugene did some of his famous other wrestlers moves. The match itself was a long way to short and it didn't provide enough emotion which puts it down a little bit. My rating 7.15/10.
Match Five-World Tag Team Championships-La Resistance(C)Vs Edge & Chris Benoit-Benoit & Edge received this match as they were not chosen for the World Heavyweight Championship match later in the evening. Rob Conway is starting to really improve in the ring and the same has to be said for Sylvan Grenier as well. Edge and Benoit put on a clinic especially Benoit but then Edge walked out for some reason. My rating 7.26/10.
Match Six-Lingerie Pillow Fight-Carmella DeCesare Vs Christy Hemme-This match was a waste of time it was under two minutes and it had no purpose it was between the "physcho whose not a physcho" and the one with no personality. Why did they have to have this match its putting a dampener on this nice event. My rating 2.49/10.
Match Seven-World Heavyweight Championship-HHH(C)Vs Shawn"HBK"Michaels-HBK was legit hurt for this match but he still toughed it out once more for his fans. This was definetly not their greatest match but they did their best considering Shawns injury and that they didn't know who they were versing for the event and that. Good effort with a great ending setting up a great future feud. My rating 7.53/10.
Match Eight-Main Event-Cage Match-Ric Flair Vs Randy Orton-This was a awesome match except it was way to short and it should have been a submission match anyway. There was quite a bit of blood in this one and it did a very good ending in it as well. Great action and some good spots in this made it very enjoyable. After the match these two hugged, maybe a Ric Flair face turn? Nope cause the next night he came out with Evolution costing Orton a shot for the title at Survivor Series. My rating 8.72/10.
This show was fairly good with the Chain,Cage and the Tag Title match being the main stand outs with the HBK Vs HHH match being not to far behind them. The score for this show was 55.12/80 which is 68.90% which is a B-. Good event with a lot of good stuff. Purchase if you're a collector or interested. I believe this should be added to your collection as it is a very novel event.
Movie Review: October 2004 - Bradley Center - Milwaukee, Wisconsin
Summary: 4 Stars
This was the first interactive PPV in the WWE. The fans voted online to determine opponents, match types, and stipulations. It was a good idea, and ended up being a pretty decent PPV, although it could have been maybe a little better.
1. Shelton Benjamin vs. Chris Jericho (Intercontinental Title)
The fans chose Jericho's opponent for the match. Good way to kick off the show, although it was a little unfortunate that the crowd was pretty much out of the match. Good match. It started a little slow, but ended strong. Good finish, with a lot of reversals and near falls. Personally, I thought this was the best match of the night. (8/10)
2. Trish Stratus vs. Stacy Keibler vs. Jazz vs. Victoria vs. Molly Holly vs. Gail Kim vs. Nidia (Women's Title/Battle Royal)
The fans got to decide which outfit the ladies would were in this match. They chose the school girl outfits. Actually, this was not a bad Battle Royal. Good performance by the women. (6.5/10)
3. Gene Snitzky vs. Kane (Steel Chain Match)
This was the match in which the fans chose the weapon the two would use. I thought Snitzky would be terrible, but he put forth a really good effort. The match was a little slow, but pretty brutal. Amazing spot when Snitzky jumps off the second rope and steps on the chair that was across Kane's neck. Could not believe it. (7.5/10)
4. Eugene vs. Eric Bischoff (Loser Loses Hair)
The fans got to choose the stipulation in the match. Very short match, but the aftermath is pretty long, but very funny. Coach and Vince make appearances in the match. (6.5/10)
5. Chris Benoit & Edge vs. La Resistance (World Tag Titles)
The two that lost the voting for the World Heavyweight Title would be teamed together for this match, Edge and Benoit. Very, very, very slow and boring match that really dragged on. It was way too predictable on what would happen in the match, although the outcome was not predictable. Exciting, emotional ending. (6/10)
6. Carmella vs. Christy (Pillow Fight)
The fans got to choose the match type for this one. It actually took longer for the two to change, than the actual match itself. Very hot match. (5.5/10)
7. Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels (World Heavyweight Title)
The fans chose H's opponent for this match. HBK was legitimetley hurt in this match. He put on a very inspiring effort. He had to be in a lot of pain during the match. Triple H has to be given credit for doing a good job in working with his injured foe. I thought the ending was once again way too predictable. Batista and Edge make appearances. This is given a higher score, not because of the quality of the match, but because of HBK's effort. (8/10)
8. Randy Orton vs. Ric Flair (Steel Cage Match)
Again, the fans got to choose the match type here. About what would be expected from a Flair cage match. Kind of slow, but very exciting and bloody. Good finish. Flair and Orton both put on a good performance. (8/10)
Good PPV. I think it is up in the air on wheter to pick this one up or not. The matches are good, but not the best. But, there were a lot of shockers and good storyline set ups in this PPV. Which is something the WWE has not really been doing at their PPV's.
Overall Rating: 7.5/10
Movie Review: Taboo Tuesday 2004 (WWE's Ist Interactive ppv)
Summary: 4 Stars
1. Intercontinental Championship
-Chris Jericho vs. Shelton Benjamin
Good Match, but I expected better. No disrespect to Benjamin, but Y2J should still be the champ. He held the title for less than a month. Anyways, the match was good, a little slow at times, but it sped up. Benjamin wins with the T-Bone Suplex. 3.5/5
2. Battle Royal for the Womens' Championship
- Trish Stratus (Champ) vs. Stacy Keibler vs. Gail Kim vs. Molly Holly vs. Victoria vs. Nidia
Womens' wrestling is such a joke nowadays. It was pretty hot to have the girls where school girl outfits, though. The battle royal wasn't that bad, either. Trish retains by eliminating Molly. 2/5
3. Chain Match
-Kane vs. Gene Snitsky
A slow, but brutal match. When they hit each other with the chain, it looked just a little fake. At least it's better than thier joke of a rematch at New Year's Revolution. I hate these two wrestlers. They are both horrible actors, and they need a freakin' stipulation just to make thier matches descent. The whole storyline about Kane and Lita having a baby is just so stupid and fake, it's not even funny. But anyways, the match ended with the same, stupid attack on Kane that Kane did to HBK. There are two problems with that: 1. The WWE producers are repeating two similiar ambush attacks in the same year. 2. I thought that only the Chain was legal. 3/5
4. World Tag-Team Championships
-Benoit & Edge vs. La Resistance (Champs)
A very good tag-team match. It eventually turns into a handicap match when Edge leaves, but he still becomes the champion! 4/5
5. Eric Bischoff vs. Eugene Dinsmore
A very bad match. Bischoff actually seems to be in control, but, of course, Eugene wins. Bischoff gets his head shaved, and The Coach wears a dress. The little segment with Vince and Eric is funny. I miss the old, abnoxious Eric Bischoff, like back in the WCW. I also miss the old Heel Vince McMahon, like back in the good ol' days of the McMahon/Austin Wars. Why would the producers make Vinny Mac turn Babyface? And I cannot stand Eugene. He is a joke of an athlete with the most retarded gimmick that I've ever seen. Why can't he just be Nick Dinsmore, or get a whole new gimmick? 1.5/5
6. Lingerie Pillow Fight
-Christy Hemme vs. Carmella DeCesare
The segment before the match was hot. As for the actual match, it was very lame and fake. I liked the part at the beginning of the match when Christy pulled out some sort of a falsy out of Carmella's bra. 2.5/5
7. World Heavyweight Championship
-Triple H (Champ) vs. Shawn Michaels
A very good match, but not the best HBK/HHH match. Michaels was hurt very badly, but he managed to pull through. In the match, Batista and Edge interfere, in which he makes his official heel turn. Edge spears HBK, and HHH retains. 4/5
8. Cage Match
-Ric Flair vs. Randy Orton
My favorite match of the night. It's not a Ric Flair/Harley Race or Ric Flair/Dusty Rhodes classic cage match, but it's still very good and very bloody. Orton defeats Flair by pinfall and then shake hands, which disappointed me because I really wanted this feud to last longer, but the hand shake shortened the feud. 4.5/5
