War Games was incredible from start to finish. Poor Bobby Heenan taking the Superfly from the top of the cage! Ouch! Not a good night to be "The Brain". I absolutely loved the debuts of both the British Bulldogs (love them being managed by Albano!) and Don Muraco along with Mr. Fuji. Muraco made a serious statement laying out both Windham and Savage.
Some of my other favorite moments from the card were Trish Stratus winning the Vixens title, Brisco Brothers over the Midnight Express (huge win for Jack & Jerry), the Long Riders suffering their first loss as Stars & Stripes pick up a big win, and that Gorgeous George-Sam Houston bout sounded like a show stealer.

Hell in a Cell was awesome as well. Very cool to see Shane Douglas win his first championship and I'm happy for the successful debut of Adrian Adonis. I'm looking forward to see how he fares in the EAWA. Sorry to see Terry Gordy go, I wonder if he will find a new home in the VWF universe? Congrats to Steve Williams on that huge win. Just a fun show from start to finish.

Disappointed that Vampiro lost that coffin match to Konnan, but I'm interested to see how things develop between Ox and Snow as a result of how things went down...
Vader will be tough to knock off the top of the mountain... Expecting he might set some records with this title reign.
Great stuff, as always!

Just a fun show from start to finish. Thanks for commenting cruefan68! I am looking forward to seeing what Adonis and Jimmy Hart do together on the EAWA brand. On my EAWA brand where every match is no DQ and no countout, Sandman really has some advantages with how his card is written as he can use his SINGAPORE CANE (+2) finisher repeatedly without having to worry about getting DQd and that DDT-3 on L30 is always DDT on weapon- 3 Add 1 as every EAWA match is a no DQ match so it was impressive for Shane Douglas to end Sandman's 3 month reign as Brass Knuckles Champion. Right now I am clearing some roster space for the newly released color cards, but Terry Gordy will return at some point (hopefully alongside one or two Freebirds if they ever get signed.) |

I thought Vampiro might win that coffin match and then I could make that a signature match of his in the VWF but the dice rolls were heavily favoring Konnan this time. Vader will be tough to knock off (although he has been pinned before- such as recently by Curt Henning in a non-title match) but his title reign might last all the way through Vegasmania until the next draft shortly afterward as I have some tentative plans to have some really big names get drafted to the EAWA brand. |
