I was just flippin around and I was like... what's this... oh yeah that show supposed to be on. I saw the match... not bad. But then I remembered that there wouldn't be any shots to the head/neck area so I was like he can't hit his finisher... and he didn't. But the match wasn't bad.

But the show itself... yeah definitely for the kids.

The best time for watching wrestling is with kids, this is where the smark leaves your body and you can just enjoy the product put infront of you. I only watch wrestling with my nieces and nephews and old people, because there is noone saying this is fake, or he should've done this and that.

Ever wonder why I never post anything in the live threads.

The match definitely surprised me, didn't expect it to go as long as it did or be anywhere near that good. Even got a chuckle out of me when they did the rope spot with Slater getting tired.

yea the match itself was just enjoyable. Slater strummin the air guitar, Kofi doin what Kofi does. I ignored the commentary and just enjoyed what they were doin. Actually went longer than most Raw matches.

yeah that part was like... wait... heh really. Its just one of those laze around and enjoy the show moments. I'd probably catch it next week just for the match.

This is true.

I found myself saying damn I forgot how good or how little arm drags, abdominal stretches, hip tosses, and proper counters are used. Steamboat would have been proud at least as they really worked around it well with all the quick and deep counters. I mean there was a part when Heath used the ropes for leverage and I found myself saying I remember as a kid when Flair would do that and it would drive me crazy.

It was a good match IMO and I could see kids likeningthe format they used and even wanting to learn more about the highlighted talent.


It wasn't a wasted 20mins basically w/o commercials as I cut them out.

I read the blur thing had to do with Saban, not the CW or WWE

Slater played the heel part so good as well. Also, not familiar with Saban? What is it exactly?

Liscensing and production company. They are most know for the 90s shows they made and opened the righs too.

- Mighty Morphin Power Rangers/Zeo/Turbo/Space/Galaxy/Time Force
- VR Troopers
- Masked Rider
- Beetleborgs

They kinds fell off the map so to speak when he sold the rights to Power Rangers to Disney after Time Force, but they bought them back at a discount. They also were able to purchase the Ninja Turtles rights.

Saban owns the Saturday morning timeslot on CW as they bought 4Kids time.

I guess you can think of them like a network partner so to speak.

Sounds like they have delivered a good show for the target market. Nice touch to add some WWE history in there, I mean you can't complain when you get to see Disco Inferno and Too Cool on a show.

But Disco Inferno is not a part of WWE's history so I don't get that one.

WWE own the rights to all the WCW footage so they are going to use any example of dancing they can find to fit into that segment. Just an easy way to pad out the video with one of the most well known dancing gimmicks in wrestling.
