Didn't realize Homicide was that old.

Also, that it was Otani.

 

[Chris]

It was Otani, typo on my part.

Poor Otunga.....Coulda been the GOAT.

Mania X has proven one of the more underrated stuff ones over time, actually had some good stuff, along side some trash. Of course it featured two of the greatest Mania matches ever and some decent comedy too.

This reminds me someone really should set up that long overdue Greatest WM Tournament in the run up to 30.
