The end of COTC 9 is both :whew: and :russ:

Flair makes Funk give up in their I Quit match. Terry, being a man of his word, shakes Ric's hand after the match. Gary Hart, who before the match made it very clear that Terry was not to disappoint him or Texas, attacks Terry. Flair then attacks Gary. Muta and Kendo Nagasaki (sorry, THE DRAGONMASTER) attacked Flair as JR kept screaming "THE JAPANESE are attacking". Sting would then come out to save Flair while Hart went back to attacking Funk. Lex Luger would then come out with a chair and lay Sting out, then break the PWI trophies of Sting and Flair to end the show out of pettiness.

If only Tony had been there to scream WE'RE OUTTA TIME :wow:

Watched Wrestlemania 15

Considering how hot the product was at this time this show was a bit flat,

Even Austin v Rock, which is very good, pales in comparison to Mania 17.

Taker and Bossman might be the WOAT Hell in the Cell. Actual boring chants throughout. Total clusterfukk of a match but the hanging fukkery after match is at least memorable.

I do appreciate the HHH/Chyna swerve. I remember at the time the HHH turn was a legit surprise I didn't see coming. It was well done and looking back in hindsight, it one of the most significant heel turns ever.

Also Michael Cole's bytch ass calling most of the show hurts it. There's a moment that really sums up why Cole (espcially around this time) was so bad in comparison to JR. In the Hell in the Cell match, Cole is talking about how dangerous the match is cause you could get a finger caught in the cage. A fukking finger? :gucci:If that was JR, he'd be telling the audience that lives were on the line...bodies would be broken and destroyed in the demonic hell in the cell structure. Cole's bytch ass out there talking about hurting your fingers. :francis: shyt like this was why Austin and Rock went straight to Vince and demanded JR called the main event, even though he was still obviously struggling with the bells palsy.

The show is fun enough, but most of the matches are short and honestly could've just been something you'd see on Raw.

Oh yeah and this was a highlight

:mjlol:

literally :deadmanny:

Yeap... this show kinda proves that when you have something that's a hot product, people will still eat it up even if the booking is trash. Russo is written all over most of this shyt. A lot of it was random as fukk, and like you said, Cole calling it makes it even worse.

Let's not leave out Billy Gunn being in the Ryan Shamrock storyline (which was trash anyway)... along with Goldust, Val, and Ken... but then he's not in the 4-way match, and Road Dogg is in it instead. Meanwhile Billy is in a triple threat for the Hardcore title for no reason... :mjlol: Owen & Jarrett are defending their titles against Test & D-Lo who won a battle royal on Sunday Night Heat, never teamed together, never teamed again, and didn't even feud after this... show was like :mindblown:

The rock going over haitch and taker in a handicap match is one of my favorite raw moments of all time
