    Might have been because of how realistic the feud was with there being real heat over Benoit dating and later marrying Sullivan's Ex. You can only work a programme for long under those conditions. I don't mind it being a short feud. Sullivan was passed his best at this point. After awhile the...

    Thing is most of the LL matches were just so short that they were forgettable. I think two stars out of five (which I gave most of them) is a poor rating. But most of them were just poor rather than terrible. I don't mind the gimmick too much its just they normally messed it up. Adding an...

    I would defend the Sullivan stuff because the Pillman moment was a truly WTF moment. It did feel more a angle than match. I hate the Sting-Lex storyline, but that match wasn't as bad as I expected. What's funny is that Harlem Heat as a team had peaked. They should have been the future of tag...

    It was probably because certain matches were better than I expected. It was a mistake not having Savage/Flair main event. The only truly bad match I thought was the Konan one.

    What one of their best ever PPV? I think the matches that are bad do drag it down a fair bit. Plus there's a fair bit of bad booking. But it is a really good show mostly.
