I like that idea a whole lot! What do you think the dollar amount should be for a weekly show like Dynamite and Collision should be to get your money’s worth? $20? How about a ppv, would $50 suffice since that’s the cost of the ppv?

Yeah it was the cost of ordering shows dvd or ppvs. $15-20 depending on the number of matches for tv would be my guess.

Man, poor Benoit. Never had a five star match.

Then he got demoted from the Four Horseman to Raw, which is when the Big Adventure happened, but we don't talk about that.

Nope. No 5 star matches in wwe from 1997 (Badd Blood Hell in a Cell between Shawn Michaels and Undertaker) until 2011 (Money in the Bank, John Cena vs CM Punk) Nobody put on a good enough match in wwe according to Meltzer. He said in the interview that if he rates something 5 stars and someone rates it 4 stars they agree that the match was great. Anything within 2 stars of what Meltzer rates you basically agree with because it’s the same thing. A 4.75* match is a 5* match; there is no difference. He gives the extra .25 to the boys who feed him information, because that makes the match just a little bit better to him because they’re his friends. Not for anyone watching the match, but because it makes Meltzer feel good that he has inside connections in a business he isn’t a real, honest, true part of. So he blows the Young Bucks, who, historically, have proven they can’t have a match without doing everything and having their special referee who doesn’t ever enforce any actual rules of the athletic contests they’re supposed to be engaged in. But because they suck off Meltzer and name their moves after him he rates them better than the greatest in ring technicians in the history of the sport.

I love the dollar amount rating idea.

Rumor has it that Santana and Ortiz have worked out their differences and have signed new deals. Hopefully they can get a tag title run finally. I think they'd have a killer match(es) with FTR.

So let me see if I got this, Trent couldn't get the pin because he wasn't the legal man but immediately afterwards Penta pinned Trent and the ref counts it. What???

Claudio wasn't legal. Penta was so he pinned Trent who also was.

Okay, that makes sense. I was barely holding on being awake at that point. We've been cleaning Jacen's bedroom for nearly a week now it was so out of sorts so I was barely awake watching all night last night. I do know I loved the Swerve/Darby match though.

I know the eventual goal is to have them turn on each other, but can we keep MJF and Cole together for longer than the next 2 weeks please? This is working in my opinion.

FTR should win Saturday with MJF "turning" and staying the heel w Cole the face still. I really don't want to see a double turn here. By All In you need them in defined roles imo.

I think that's what's going to happen Saturday but I just feel like this act is hot enough to stretch them out a little longer. Maybe have them face Roddy and a returning Kyle O'Reilly if he is ready to go.

Just an odd observation but what has happened to the tattoo on MJF's arm? The lion with the crown looks incredibly faded compared to how I recall it.
