Movie Reviews of WWE Taboo Tuesday 2004
Movie Review: Taboo Tuesday 2004- first ever fan interaction ppv
Summary: 3 Stars
This is easily the worst wwe ppv of the year.It has four decent matches but nothing special at all. This is a new low for the WWE and they better start picking it up. Before I get to the match reviews WHAT THE HELL IS WWE DOING. There have been 10 cuts/firings to decent superstars in 48 hours and it,s wrecking the buisness. There is a rumour going around that WWE will stop the brand extention(two seperate rosters)and they should as talent is getting fewer and fewer every day. This is the only good news coming from the firings. I had to get that off my head but any way here is how I rate the matches.
RATING SCALE
40 Bad PPV
40-50 Okay PPV
50-60 Average PPV
60-70 Good PPV
70-80 Exellent PPV
80+ Classic PPV
Intercontinental Championship
Chris Jericho(c) vs. Shelton Benjamin
Im glad Benjamin got the title shot but I didn't wan't him to win it. Benjamin is a great wrestler but Jericho only just won it 2 months ago and was doing a great job with the belt. As for the match it self was one of the decent matches of the night. It was very short but had explosive action all the way through and many nice moves used by both men. Benjamin gets the three count after an exploder suplex and wins the Intercontinental Championship. WINNER-Shelton Benjamin 7/10
Womans Championship-Fantasy Battle Royal
Trish Stratus(c) vs. Stacy vs. Victoria vs. Gail Kim vs. Nidia vs. Jazz vs. Molly Holly
All the ladys looked HOT!!!!!!! in this match but the match itself was short and worthless as Trish retains anyway. If you get this DVD just press skip after the ladys entrances.
WINNER-Trish Stratus 4/10
Steel Chain Match
Kane vs. Gene Snitsky
Snitsky is starting to remind me of Kane(a monster) and he was in a match one on one with him here. A brutal match with the chain used numerous times but was slow and boring which was hard to watch. Snitsky wins it in the end.
WINNER-Gene Snitsky 5/10
Loser gets their head shaved
Eugene vs. Eric Biscoff
A squash match. Only 2 minutes long with Eugene winning after hitting a Hogan leg drop. The Aftermath was funny though when Eric gets shaves(He's really grey) and coach is forced to wear a dress by Mr McMahon. WINNER-Eugene 5/10
World Tag Team Titles
La Resistance(c) vs. Edge/Chris Benoit
Probably the fourth best match of the night. This seemed like one of those main event Raw matches that they have every night on Raw but was still good. Edge walks out on Benoit making his heel turn official but Benoit still wins the titles making one of the french guys tap out with the crossface. La Resistance get the titles back two weeks later on Raw so I don't know what the point of this was. WINNER-Benoit/Edge 6/10
Lingerie Match
Christy vs. Carmella
Not even worth my time. Boring!!!!!!!!
WINNER-Christy 0/10
World Heavyweight Championship
Triple H(c) vs. Shawn Michaels
What a performance by HBK injured but Triple H really pulled this match down with his working on the injury tatics. Lots of exciting points in this match especially when Shawn hit Sweet chin music but Edge costs him the title delivering a devastating spear to Michaels. Triple H covered to pick up the win and retain the belt. WINNER-Triple H 8/10
Steel Cage match
Randy Orton vs. Ric Flair
Best match of the night and was a good, brutal cage match. Both men put in a great effort and took some bumps. Not a classic but still a good main event to finish Taboo Tuesday. Randy Orton wins after hitting an RKO out of nowhere on Flair. WINNER-Randy Orton 8.5/10
Overall a poor performance by WWE. Hopefully the brand extention will end and we will get the old WWE back. Overall Taboo Tuesday scored a 43.5/80. RATING SCALE-54
Movie Review: Taboo tuesday is an okay ppv
Summary: 3 Stars
80-76%perfect
75-71%-awsome
70-66%-good
65-61%-poor
60-56%-awful
1. Shelton Benjamin vs. Chris Jerico- Great way to kick off the ppv. I think it was the first singles title that shelton had ever won. I like the idea that there were two faces and people accualty cared about the wrestlers. I liked to see shelton win it showed he was improving. Good way to kick things off. Winner and new itc champ Shelton Benjamin. Match Rating 8/10.
2. Divas battle royal- Decent match nothing really special. I liked the finish that trish retained i would have not minded to see victoria or molly win the title but the ending was fine. Not much to say. Winner and still womans champ trish stratus. Match Rating 5/10.
3. Kane vs. Gene Snitsky in a steel chain match- This was a good match. I dont think people give it the credit that it deserves. Let me explain. This was the big push for kane to turn face and at the time snitsky was playing a really good heel and this match helped him out. Also decent action with the chain. Also a nice chair spot used on kane. Winner Gene Snitisky. Match Rating 7.5/10.
4. Eugene vs. Eric bishoff- not a good match at all. I dont think that either of these people can wrestle. Very short match which was a good thing. The only good part was we got to see eric bishoff get his head shaved. Funny stuff. Winner Eugene. Match Rating 4/10.
5. Edge and Chris Beniot vs. La resistance for the tag team titles- I really liked this tag team match. Finnaly we have some tag team wrestling with some talent. Great to see beniot and edge win the titles but i think that la resistance did a good job in this match as well. Some people thought it was a little long but i was so into the match i did not care. Very good match. Winners and new tag team champs edge and beniot. Match Rating 8.5/10.
6. Christy Hemme vs Carmella in a langera match- This was a awful match. They took 10 minutes to get changed before the match even started. The match itself was 3 minutes and when christy got the win carmella sholders were not fully down. Awful match. Winner Christy Hemme. Match Rating 2/10.
7. Shawn Michales vs. HHH for the WHT- this was a decent match. It was still very good but from there past matches they were alot better. I think it was cool of shawn even though he was injured to go out and still wrestle. Most of the match is focused on michales knee so that brought the rating down a little. Still a good match. Edge cost michales the title. Winner and still whc HHH. Match Rating 8/10.
8. Randy Orton vs. Rick flair in a steel cage- This was a good way to close off the night. I cant remember the last time i saw flair in a cage match and it was great to see him again. About a 16 minute match could have been longer but was still great. Blood brass knucks and a awsome ending when flair hugged orton after the match. Winner Randy Orton. Match Rating 9/10.
Well that raps up another. I would give taboo tuesday a grade of 51/80 which is a 63% which means it is poor. I think the main reason it was brought down was because of the christy match and eugens match. I would recomend to get it for under 15 dollars. I would appericate it if you tell me if my review was helpflu to you or not. You can check out my other ppv which are Backlash 2004, summerslam 2003, summerslam 2005, Royal Rumble 2005, unforgiven 2005, taboo tuesday 2005, unforgiven 2003, vengence 2005, wrestlemania 21, wrestlemania XX, and Judgement day 2005. Tell me if you liked those. Thanks for your time.
Movie Review: Fair PPV
Summary: 3 Stars
KEY:
91 - 100 - Perfect. A flawless PPV, you must buy this. Without a doubt this belongs in everyone's wrestling collection.
81 - 90 - Superb. An outstanding PPV, I highly recommend that you buy this.
71 - 80 - Great. A first-rate PPV, certainly worth your money.
61 - 70 - Good. A satisfying PPV. Perhaps buy this if you really feel you want it.
51 - 60 - Fair. An average PPV. It is worth a look, not your money.
41 - 50 - Mediocre. A dull PPV. - Perhaps take a look at this if you get a chance, I don't recommend it though.
31 - 40 - Poor. An unsatisfactory PPV - Maybe for hardcore wrestling fans, not for anyone else.
21 - 30 - Bad. A lousy PPV - This is not worth a look from anyone.
11 - 20 - Terrible. An awful PPV - Stay away from this and make sure you never see it.
1 - 10 - Abysmal. An appalling PPV - This is just a waste of time.
TABOO TUESDAY 2004:
Shelton Benjamin vs. Chris Jericho: 7.5/10
Nothing amazing about this match. Their encounter at Backlash 2005 is far better. Not a bad opener to the PPV but the sad thing is that this match is a serious contender for the best match of the night.
Trish Stratus vs. Victoria vs. Nidia vs. Stacy Kiebler vs. Gail Kim vs. Jazz vs. Molly Holly: 2/10
This was a waste of time done only so we could see them in school girl outfits. Fast forward this.
Gene Snitsky vs. Kane: 5/10
A very boring and disappointing chain match. There are no innovative moves done with the chain, just weak shots by both men. This truly fails to impress.
Eugene vs. Eric Bischoff: 3/10
Horrible 'match', the only reason it gets a 3 is because Bischoff getting his head shaved and the appearance of Mr. McMahon is mildly entertaining.
Chris Benoit & Edge vs. La Resistance: 6.5/10
A terribly average tag team match. We've seen way better matches on television. Edge walks off and leaves another bad match on the card.
Lingerie pillow fight:
Christy vs. Carmella: 2/10
Two women's matches in one night? That is a VERY bad idea. Thought the school girl match was horrible? This is even worse and even more boring. Over half the match is the women behind a curtain dressing. What a waste of time.
Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels: 7/10
I thought this would be a great match. I was wrong. HBK sells his 'injury' for the whole match. This makes the match slow-paced and by no means exciting. Finally we get a burst of energy from HBK at the end that somewhat adds a bit of excitement. This is the worst of all their encounters, please check out any of the others and give this one a skip.
Steel Cage Match:
Randy Orton vs. Ric Flair: 7.5/10
Not a bad match but disappointing as far as cage matches go. The cage is not used very well, for example there are no moves performed with the cage or off the top of the cage. Very bloody and has a lot of emotion put into it by both men. 7.5 is a generous rating.
SCORE: 40.5/80 (51/100)
According to the key I have rated Taboo Tuesday 2004 as 'Fair', an average PPV and that it is worth a look but not your money.
Also it only barely fits in to this rating. I somewhat agree with this. Taboo Tuesday was a bad PPV and one that I don't want to see again, I have no desire to see any of those matches ever again. So while it is not worth your money, I don't even feel that it is worth a look to be honest.
Movie Review: TABOO TUESDAY___October 19, 2004___Not a very good PPV
Summary: 3 Stars
I had high expectations for this PPV because it was so different and to me was futuristic. But it did not deliever the way I wanted. If they do it in 2005 I hope they do a better job.
1) Intercontinental championship:
Chris Jericho vs Shelton Benjamin. The people voted for Benjamin which I fought was a good idea because of his tramendous abilties. The last week on RAW, Shelton earned Mr. McMahon's indorsment by beating some of the wrestlers who were involved in the polls. Believe it or not but I think the best match on the card was this match. It was fast pased and Y2J and Benjamin look good in the ring together. Benjamin went for the T-Bone suplex to pick up the win to become the new IC champion. (8/10)
2) Fulfill your fantasy diva battle royal for the Women's Championship: (School girl outfit)
Trish Stratus vs Jazz vs Nidia vs Gail Kim vs Victoria vs Molly Holly vs Stacy Keibler. This was just a poor excuse for a PPV match. Trish got help from Molly Holly to eliminate everyone then betrayed her at the end by pulling a fast elimination. This match was just trash. Trish retains. (2/10)
3) Steel Chain Match:
Kane vs Gene Snitsky. This match was really lame. Im also getting sick and tried of their fued they are having today. It was really horrifing to see Kane get hurt at the end because i'm a huge fan of the big red machine. He doesn't come back till a week before New years Revolution. It made no sense when snitsky started using the steel chair. I fought the only thing legal was the steel chain. oh well I don't care because the fighting was way too sloppy. (6/10)
4) Eugene vs Eric Bischoff (stipulation: Loser gets his head shaved) This match only lasted about 2 mins when Eugene went for the legdrop for the win. The match was pointless but the end made up for that when Eugene shaved his uncle's head. Mr. McMahon made Couch wear a dress. HAHAHAHA!!! (7/10)
5) World tag team championship:
La Resistance vs Edge & Chris Benoit. This match was slow paced and very very long for a tag team match. I was not impressed. Edge later walks out and drives home leaving Benoit on his own. but somehow Chris picks up the win. (6/10)
6) World Heavyweight Championship:
Triple H vs Shawn Michaels. This match was the worst world title match I have ever seen because HBK's leg was injured. he was on the ground the whole time. Although I do admire his strength of withstanding the figure four leg lock. (7/10)
7) Lingerie Pillow Fight:
Christy Hemme vs Carmella. I don't know why they brought Carmella into this. Its just a poor excuse for Christy to be in her first match. They spent like 20 mins getting dressed which was really stupid and what was even more stupid was the match lasted not even a full minute. Christy wins this match. (0/10) Not even worth a 1.
8) Steel cage match:
Randy Orton vs Ric Flair. This match was too short and too rushed. I think it was because some of the matches were too long and boring. This match had some blood but didn't last. The rush of the match made it stupid. (7/10)
OVERALL: this PPV was the worst of this year. Not one descent match. Not even the injury Kane got saved this PPV. If you want to see this PPV then rent it out. You will feel much better. I rate this PPV (6/10)
Movie Review: Better than I thought it would be
Summary: 3 Stars
Just got the DVD. Taboo Tuesday was pretty good. Far better then what I expected it to be. But that isn't saying much.
Lingerie Pillow Fight
Christy vs. Carmella
Nice offits girls, but the match sucked. I can't believe this was made on the pay per view. Plain Crap - Rating: *
Loser Must get his head shaved
Eugene vs. Eric Bischoff
This match was very short. The only part I liked about this match is when Vince came down and told Bischoff to sitdown and get his hair cut by Eugene or he's fired. Just comedy at the end that made up for the short match up. Rating: * 1/2
Intercontinental Championship
Chris Jericho vs. Shelton Benjamin
Second best match of the night in my opinion. The two put on a pretty good match. And Shelton wins the title!! But it's sad for Jericho though because he only held the title for a month. The two shake hands after the match. This was a great opener. Rating: *** 1/2
Fulfill your fantasy Diva Battle Royal for the Women's Champioship.
Mostly all the women were looking good in their school girl outfit. Nidia, Victoria, Stacy and Tirsh had the best ones. Your regular type battle royal with Trish getting the win and keeping her title. Rating: **
Steel Chain Match
Kane vs. Gene Snitsky
The match was pretty good in my opinion. I like Snitsky's character he's funny to me. Even though he isn't suppose to be. They tried to make Snitsky loook like a monster in this match and I think they got there point out. I see Kane continuing his feud with Snitsky after he returns. Rating: ** 1/2
World Tag Team Championship
La Resistance vs. Edge and Chris Benoit
Edge heel turn finally happens here. He leaves in the middle of the match. Leaving Benoit by himself. The tag match was okay. Great ending with Benoit winning the titles without any help!!!
Rating: ** 1/2
World Heavyweight Championship
Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels
Great performance by Michaels even on a injured leg. Edge return and spears HBK!!! The Game gets the win here. Rating: ***
Steel Cage Match
Randy Orton vs. Ric Flair
Match of the night!!!! This might not be a classic in other people's mind but it is to me. The pre-match video before that was awesome. Ric Flair gave it his all in this match. Orton gets the win after Flair tries to hit Orton with a chair and he gets RKO'ed. After the match Orton and Flair shook hands and even hug once. Great match. Rating: ****
They barly have anything on the extras. Expect for the Taboo Tuesday promo, informercial and conference. The only have one interview and that's with Shelton.
This DVD is pretty good. I don't blame you if you get the tape but otherwise with the Flair vs. Orton match, the HBK vs. Triple H and the Shelton vs. Jericho match this dvd is worth getting.
