Â Turned up in WCW didn't it? Wouldn't be surprised if that one was fucking plastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Tommy! Posted January 28, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted January 28, 2017 It was a cobra which cost Jake in his Coal Miners Glove match at Halloween Havoc if memory serves me right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Cod Eye Posted January 30, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted January 30, 2017 Just watching last night's Royal Rumble, and it got me thinking... Â How exactly do they book the thing? Is it mapped out step by step, or are the entrants given certain spots and told to just work on the fly until it is time to go into them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.E Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Just watching last night's Royal Rumble, and it got me thinking... Â How exactly do they book the thing? Is it mapped out step by step, or are the entrants given certain spots and told to just work on the fly until it is time to go into them? Â Not 100% sure on the definitive answer on this, although Matt Morgan recently said in an interview that in the rumble he was in, (2004?) he was given a brief thing like: " you come in at number 7 and eliminate Hurricane" [for example] and it was left to them to plan out what they would like to do/how to do it. I imagine a lot of guys who are the main entrants are given more instruction than that though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â If it IS the case, then 90% of today's roster needs to learn to work on the fly, as the amount of them just laying around until their next "spot" took the piss!

Paid Members WeeAl Posted January 30, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted January 30, 2017 (edited) Cod eye you should download the episode of Something to Wrestle with Bruce Prichard on Royal Rumble 97. They go pretty in depth on the process and how much instruction and detail are applied to various aspects. It sounds pretty painstaking to be perfectly honest, and it's a bit of miracle that it foes off most years without a hitch considering the amount of moving parts. It's a good listen, most of the talking about the booking process starts about half way in, with the early part of the episode being about business at the time and the decision to run the Alomodome and the relationship with AAA.

Kamaras-Tash Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 I think I may have asked this before but what's happening with that wrestling tv show what was getting made, think it had something to do with that bearded fella from a band who's name I have forgot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members BigJag Posted January 30, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted January 30, 2017 (edited) Wasn't Pat Patterson credited with creating the Rumble? The best Rumbles are those booked by him. HHH is supposed ton have turfed Patterson out of v that role. Which has resulted in the Rumbles under his strewardship being of a lower standard.

AshC Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 Did the WWF/WCW archive all that content they put out on the Superstar Line/Mean Gene hotline? I can't imagine they did, but I imagine there's some real historical value to some of the stuff that would have aired on those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New Year's Revolution 2006 is a personal favourite, although it's perhaps one of those matches that was much better watching it at the time.
