Edge/Foley/Lita Vs. Dreamer/Funk/Beulah ONS 06
I've seen this match a few times and honestly...... not too crazy about it. I'm not a big fan of the hardcore style to begin with but even on those occasions I'm in the mood for it I can think of much better matches. Foley/HHH from RR 00 comes to mind.

Very true the end result could have stayed the same.... but Sandman coming out to replace(the frankly ancient)Funk and letting the brawl escalate could have been epic. a VERY strange piece of booking that I struggled to understand at the time and still do. my last was Shamrock vs Mankind for the IC title at Judgement Day 98.great outing.

Review 3- A Flair for the gold
Starrcade 1983, Steel cage match for the NWA championship- Ric Flair vs Harley Race(c)
Gene Kiniski is special ref for this, and trust me, that's not a good thing.
What is a good thing is this match (beautiful segue, I know). Some strong neck psychology on the part of Race here, playing up to both the piledriver and the injury caused by Slater and Orton to Flair some months back. Also some pretty sweet revenge psychology from Flair during his comeback(s). Quite liked how they built slowly up to a wild brawl, although given the circumstances it probably would've made more sense to start that way and continue throughout. Thought the finish was kind of odd and lacking impact however, and Kiniski was pretty much god-awful throughout. But, I'd say the excellent middle outweighs the tame start and awkward finish, plus blood splattering the camera lens as Race slams Flairs head into the cage wall was one of the coolest shots I've ever seen in a wrestling match.
***3/4

I just watched the entire episode of Raw from 5/12/1997.
It's the one where Bret is running down HBK on the mic from his wheelchair until he stands up and gets the Sweet Chin Music.
Pretty good show.

Hulk Hogan vs. Andre the Giant - WrestleMania III Obviously not a good match but that's not what it was all about. The emotion in it is just fantastic, I could watch that bodyslam all day long

Review 4- The Mega Powers Explode
Randy Savage vs Hulk Hogan WM 5.
One of the most significant WWE Main events in history, blowing off the huge feud between the Mega Powers. Also easily the match of the night, but saying that I thought this card was pretty disappointing (and looking at some reviews, vastly overrated). The majority of this match was actually more or less your standard, fairly tame stuff from each guy, until Savage really started to pick things up. This was when he took the advantage basically through and utter lack of care for Elizabeth’s safety, in a legendary piece of bastardery. What followed was an axe handle onto Hogan over the guard rail (which he took and sold horribly) which lead to some pretty big time neck work from the Macho Man. Big flying elbow from Savage, and you’ve got yourself a pretty good ***1/2 main event.
But this is Hulkamania-era WWF, no? So of course the Hulkster kicks out at one like it was a snapmare, which had me facepalming/raging/crying/questioning my very existence. Uninspired come back sequence, leg drop, 1.2.3. That’s all she wrote. Ah, the status quo.
***1/4

Watching Nitro 95, (96 later), some really corny promos and overall the product seems a little lost. EDIT: They just introduced the Ice-Berg, Sullivan said Yeti... oh dear.
Watched Raw 1997 before this and it was awesome, a lot better than WCW so far. Having started watching weekly around 2000 it was really cool to see things develop like Austin and HBK/Bret Hart. Gunna try and get 98 soon.
Before these I didnt really see a lot on Brian Pillman but now I can see why people liked him, same with Owen.
