Chuck Taylor trying to bodyslam Andre = Gold!

I really like the team of Rikidozan & Bryan Danielson.

More great RoV action. I still think Chuck Taylor needs to get some tests done.

I was pulling for Stevens over MSII but it's good to see MSII win and Gordy is strong as the RoV Champion...

I've got some big plans for MSII before he eventually teams with the Masked Superstar...

[du5tin]

I hope Rikidozan & Bryan Danielson win!

This was a solid card, Gun!
