WCWA Revolution episode 1: Evans versus Taylor

First of all, I have to say that I for one am happy that Revolution’s commentary team is Ben Jordon and Larry Sweeny. Having Jordon and Shane Douglas for both shows would have been overkill. Sweeny is a welcome addition to the commentary both.

Lance Storm vs. Ricochet
Thoughts on match: I enjoyed it. Really made Lance Storm look strong and made me want to root for Ricochet even more. One day Ricochet will be able to pull out a big win but tonight was not the night. It was interesting how Storm was working crazy on Ricochet’s arm and not his legs considering Ricochet is a high flyer. Good match nonetheless…

Loved The Kings of Wrestling promo…definitely a top heel faction in WCWA.

Can’t wait for Danny Havoc…loved the promo.

Nice HURT video package…

I agreed with the Delirious…

Beef Wellington vs. Darin Corbin
Thoughts on match: Purely gold comedy match. The slow motion moves with the ‘real action’ reactions was hilarious. Any match with Beef Wellington is due to have tons of hilarious shenanigans and this one was no exception. Gotta love that Corbin had no clue his ass was being exposed…I also liked the realism of the match being cut through because of a commercial break thought I didn’t expect the match to actually end during the commercial break. Brain Damage really destroyed Beef, huh?

Interesting Jimmy Jacobs ‘promo’ on Beef…wonder what it will lead to?

Nice Allison Danger promo.

OOOO Tyler Black. Can’t wait for it…

SeXXXy Eddy vs. LuFisto vs. Mickie Knuckles
Thoughts on match: Very sexually fueled match up which is what you expected from SeXXXy Eddy. Gotta love Eddy screwing over LuFisto to get the victory. It was a decent match – no Kurt Angle vs. Chris Jericho vs. Chris Benoit from Wrestlemania 2000 – but it was decent. I wonder how LuFisto will react to being screwed over? She’ll probably end up killing that sex driven bastard.

Holy ****…Necro Butcher on Team BLK OUT!

Cannot wait for Trial and Error…

Hero chooses Taylor as his first man…no surprise there.

Chuck Taylor vs. Jack Evans
Thoughts on match: CRAZYYYYYYY brawl to end the show. Match goes to a no contest, which I don’t mind at all considering the brawl just adds fuel to the fire of the Kings of Wrestling/BLK Out feud. I’m really, really, REALLY looking forward to this 8 man tag team elimination match. Should be epic.

Nice show, Jeremy. The commentary was refreshing, not just joke after joke, thought it did contain some funny comedy. I think the promos were the best part of the show…all were well written. Good job.

Alright, a little rusty but here goes...

Strange seeing Joey Eastman with Lance Storm, especially having personally sat with his tanned self in a commentary booth. DRAMATIC PAUSE, nice throwback.:-)

Nice little Mitch Ryder reference, I got a chuckle.

Good twist with telling the arm story the whole match, then catching the submission with a leg. Definately came as an unexpected moment.

Giving Gertner a kick in the ass, good call.:-p

This promo is pretty solid, with Hero as the straight man and Taylor as the comedy. I've always enjoyed that contrast going back to Second City Saints in RoH. Anyway, you're really pulling in that hear between King and Hero.

The Danny Havoc gimmick seems humorous, maybe a bit too shoot like? Its very satrical, so who am I to complain?

No comment needed for the Delirious promo. BACH! BACH!

The idea of Darin Corbin being delicious...*Shudders*. Where's my Ryan Cruz though? North Star Express!!

Needless to say, I like the indy feel of this match and the lightheartedness of this one. Defintely potraying that Beef personality through text. The complete absurdness of the protected ass punch...*shake head* Great stuff. You are very good at writing a comedy match my friend, definately something I'm not skilled at.

The Jimmy Jacobs promo reminded me of Raven, but that is sort of Jimmy now isn't it?

Woot, old school Gertner.:-)

I'm glad to see you're using Allison Danger, I have always been a big fan. Once again, another solid promo. I can even hear her screechy voice saying it.

Thumps up for Tyler Black, my friend.

*shakes head* Everytime I see Sexxxy Eddy now, the stuff that happens in real life I swear. Good entrance though, I like that.

Trjoan splat of the night...I hate you for not thinking of that first.

Another good match, however just an observation...If you have more than one comedic match of the night, it waters it down. However just in the context of reading it, I liked it.

I'm still liking this King/Hero buildup, with Necro being chosen and all. Also, still getting laughs out of Chuck Taylor here, Necro scares the hell out of him.

Now for the Sexy One versus the black white guy...who DOES need to pull his pants up.

Head droppery at it's finest...Have you been listening to MY commentary?:-p

Like how you played off that German sympathy of still buying minor stuff, such as a female bump during a male match. Subtle, but very nice.

There is my Northstar Express.:-)

And old WCW style cluster finish, effective in this situation. You're really giving it your everything to build this angle, which is good.

Over all, a very good show. Anything I could say negative would just be my perfectionist nitpicking, I do it to my own stuff.
