WrestleMania Ramblings Over AIM with Chris Biscuiti and Big Andy McIntyre
Andy Mac [1:00 AM]: what did ya think
Chris Biscuiti [1:00 AM]: well …
Andy Mac [1:00 AM]: I think it was a very good to great show with the exception of HBK and Triple H winning
Chris Biscuiti [1:00 AM]: Let me give you 5 highs and 5 lows
Chris Biscuiti [1:00 AM]: 5 highs …
Andy Mac [1:00 AM]: ok
Andy Mac [1:00 AM]: I’ll do mine too
Chris Biscuiti [1:00 AM]: 1) Vince-Hogan … I thought it was going to suck royally and it f*cking ruled
Andy Mac [1:01 AM]: 1) Rock kicking Austin’s ass
Chris Biscuiti [1:01 AM]: 2) Brock-Angle … The real drama was who injured themselves more, but on top of that it was a great match … Brock looked like Billy Bob from Not Another Teen Movie at the end
Andy Mac [1:02 AM]: 2) the brock angle match was stunning, and I hope brock didn’t die
Chris Biscuiti [1:02 AM]: 3) Production packages were again incredible … Thought the end package put a very good wrap on the whole show
Andy Mac [1:03 AM]: 3) McMahon of all people doing the “holy shit” spot of the night
Chris Biscuiti [1:04 AM]: 4) HBK and Jericho had a great match, though it did take me awhile to get into it … I liked the way the match built up momentum and you are right on with the work rate/ring psychology
Andy Mac [1:03 AM]: 4) the HBK vs. Y2J match with the exception of the finish, probably the best psychology of the night
Chris Biscuiti [1:06 AM]: 5) Booker T hits the Harlem Hangover on Triple H’s big fat business casual face … He might not have secured the victory, but man, that will be fun to rewind and watch over and over and over again
Andy Mac [1:06 AM]: 5) the triple threat tag match was quite entertaining
Andy Mac [1:06 AM]: true five lows
Chris Biscuiti [1:06 AM]: Oh wait! I have to add a 6) PIPER!
Andy Mac [1:06 AM]: 6) I too often wonder how wrestlemania could have existed without Matt Hardy
Chris Biscuiti [1:07 AM]: my brother called me up after Piper showed up and I answered with “Hogan’s such a yo-yo!” Wrestling Album style
Chris Biscuiti [1:07 AM]: Okay … 5 Lows
Andy Mac [1:07 AM]: 1) matt and rey only getting six minutes in what was on pace to be a show stealer
Chris Biscuiti [1:08 AM]: 1) Crowd reaction on the TV came in really low so I couldn’t really gauge the pops/heat very well
Andy Mac [1:08 AM]: 2) nathan jones being a total bust, and another WWE money waster
Chris Biscuiti [1:09 AM]: 2) Cat fight girls, Torrie and Stacey were, in essence, time filler that could have been used for the Raw tag team match, which was relegated to f*cking Heat
Andy Mac [1:09 AM]: 3) HBK winning the match which makes absolutely no sense in any long term mindset
Chris Biscuiti [1:11 AM]: 3) Triple H winning … Even though it was expected, I still wanted him to lose bad … Of course, if he did lose he would have just won it back a month later … Ugh
Andy Mac [1:11 AM]: 4) the stupid ass catfight girls, the pillow shots were as limp as my junk during that segment, very dumb
Chris Biscuiti [1:12 AM]: 4) Seeing Coach de-pantsed was just something that will continue to haunt me for the rest of my days
Andy Mac [1:12 AM]: 5) is a tie between Triple H retaining instead of breaking his neck and Piper looking very very FAT, and his being there making almost no sense at all
Chris Biscuiti [1:13 AM]: 5) No Brian Kendrick! :-(
Andy Mac [1:13 AM]: yeah
Chris Biscuiti [1:14 AM]: maybe Piper will fight Hogan on Thursday’s edition of Smackdown! … I would have preferred a Tugboat interference myself
Andy Mac [1:14 AM]: well at least austin will beat triple H at backlash and probably hold the belt for a bit and then maybe drop it to Jericho, as they have never feuded
Chris Biscuiti [1:14 AM]: Maybe … and I think we are going to get Rock-Goldberg
Andy Mac [1:14 AM]: yeah definitely
Andy Mac [1:14 AM]: I know exactly what is going to happen
Chris Biscuiti [1:15 AM]: By the way, Austin feuded with Jericho
Andy Mac [1:15 AM]: oh yeah, very briefly
Chris Biscuiti [1:15 AM]: yeah it was during the Canadian Chris’ little backstage friendship and Jericho did beat Rock and Austin in the same night ;)
Andy Mac [1:15 AM]: I know that, but it wasn’t a true feud
Chris Biscuiti [1:16 AM]: I think Benoit should have a Best of Seven Series with someone
Andy Mac [1:16 AM]: yeah but who?
Andy Mac [1:16 AM]: eddie?
Chris Biscuiti [1:16 AM]: maybe Mattitude
Andy Mac [1:16 AM]: that’d be a hell of a way to elevate him, but I think its too soon
Chris Biscuiti [1:16 AM]: I dunno
Chris Biscuiti [1:17 AM]: have him wrestle Benoit in a Best of Seven but have him wrestling Cruisers too ;)
Andy Mac [1:17 AM]: kanyon and benoit, that would rule
Chris Biscuiti [1:17 AM]: I think we are going to get HHH-Diesel
Andy Mac [1:17 AM]: I hope we get diesel michaels
Chris Biscuiti [1:17 AM]: nice
Andy Mac [1:17 AM]: a feud with diesel away from meaning anything
Chris Biscuiti [1:17 AM]: haha
Chris Biscuiti [1:18 AM]: Shane was a nice touch
Andy Mac [1:18 AM]: I disagree it didn’t do anything
Chris Biscuiti [1:18 AM]: maybe it’s foreshadowing
Chris Biscuiti [1:18 AM]: maybe it’s bullshit
Andy Mac [1:18 AM]: he didn’t talk he just acknowledged hogan and kneeled next to vince
Andy Mac [1:18 AM]: yeah I guess so
Chris Biscuiti [1:18 AM]: either way it was interesting
Chris Biscuiti [1:19 AM]: you never know
Andy Mac [1:19 AM]: yeah
Andy Mac [1:19 AM]: if it foreshadows something
Chris Biscuiti [1:19 AM]: true the way WWE is going they would never be smart enough to do something like that
Chris Biscuiti [1:19 AM]: so it was probably just nothing special
Chris Biscuiti [1:20 AM]: okay this is going to my column
Andy Mac [1:22 AM]: awesome
Andy Mac [1:23 AM]: mention that this is Big Andy Mac of Wrestle Radio
Chris Biscuiti [1:23 AM]: I will you shameless whore ;)
That’s all for now PEACE.
