      I did not know Brickhouse Brown had an Amateur Wrestling background. Brickhouse Brown, Koko B. Ware & 2 Cold Scorpio (in their prime) vs. Shelton Benjamin, Jay Lethal & ACH. Who would win this three man tag?

    Some angles will touch on people's emotions. But that's what they are designed to do for a great storyline. In the End, Brickhouse Brown got revenge on all of them. Damn I miss the 80s

    All this angle was missing was food stamps. Its not like Memphis wouldnt have crossed that line too.....The wrestlers they had were perhaps the most loyal crazed nutbags of any organization. You watch this in 2018 and think these people ate dinner together after this......LMAO

    Lance Russell had 2 styles. During the studio shows he was the most biased face announcer there was. When he did the coliseum shows he called it right down the middle.
    WTF???

    • @johnathanrush4666
      @johnathanrush4666 2 роки тому +3

      A key to a good TV show is having a baby face announcer that the fans at home can relate to. Once they're in the MSC or whatever, they already got our $ so it's not nearly as important
      Just my 2 cents
