thejeffjarrettone Posted January 12, 2011 Author Share Posted January 12, 2011 Eddie beating that nasty smelly druggie Was Eddie having a match with himself? Â In his mind, probably, but no, I was, as the post stated referring to Sean Waltman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members ColinBollocks Posted January 12, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted January 12, 2011 Funnily enough, I've been watching that too. I'm just not sure about the match choices though, some of them do seem a bit random. I know they didn't choose them all necessarily for quality but more for their history and place in the WCW story. But still, as decent a match as it was, I'm sure they could have picked better matches than Eddie Guerrero v Syxx from Souled Out. Â I think that was more to do with Eddie beating that nasty smelly druggie Syxx/X Pac/Sean Waltman who gave WWE such a headache rather than the actual match, although I do rate it as a Ladder Match. I still feel kinda racist for laughing at "This. Is. The. Mexican Jumping Bean. Eddie. Guererro." I think it has more to do with 'friend of the family' Syxx/X Pac/Sean Waltman getting a nice royalty cheque. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That makes no sense. For using your likeness, your granted royalities anyway. X-Pac is on the documentary portion throughout, so he'll get money off it no matter what matches he's listed on. Lance Storm said on his site, he gets cheques through the door just for little archived footage on the likes of Edge's DVD. Thats why its so important to have shit on the shelves. I bet you could line your pockets if your at a certain level in WWE. They are very kind with those merch royalities according to even the shittest of names (i.e. Sandman, Kid Kash and Sabu all made $75,000-$125,000 just for a one-off payment for the SmackDown game they were on).

thejeffjarrettone Posted January 13, 2011 Author Share Posted January 13, 2011 Anyone care to name-drop a few of their favourite WCW matches? Goldberg/Steiner at Fall Brawl, Eddie/Syxx Ladder Match from the nWo Souled Out PPV, Rey Mysterio vs Kevin Nash and Terry Funk vs Norman Smiley and Ralphus just for the lolz are a few favourites of mine.

Â I honestly think it's the greatest match of all time. It settled years old hostilities between people on the same team (I still bum Sting and Nikita's hug), it ended angles and creqated new ones. The ten people in that match were all on top 110% form. It was totally perfect, everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
