Lightning Round

Thursday, October 29th, 2009

A couple of months ago I e-mailed you 10 rapid fire questions, and the readers seemed to enjoy it so here's part two.

Again, the premise is 10 quick questions, answer with the first things that come to mind.

here we go!

1. Of all you books, which is YOUR personal favorite to read? (or i should say write)

2. Best Hogan match ever?

3. Demolition or Road Warriors?

4. Midnights or RocknRolls?

5. Citizen Kane, The Godfather, Casablanca, Raging Bull, Singin in the Rain, Gone with the Wind, Lawrence of Arabia, Schindler's List, Vertigo, The Wizard of Oz. These are the American Film Institue top 10 movies all time. Agree with the choices? If not what needs to go and what needs inclusion? (i think 2001 DEFINITLY belongs, thats me though)

6. On the best day's of their lives, whose a better worker Bret or Shawn?

7. Isnt wargames the greatest gimmick match ever?

8. If Terry Funk retired in 89 after the I quit with Flair and never had his ECW stint, would we REALLY consider him a legend nowadays or would he be another old timer we barely recognize like Verne Gagne or Lou Thesz?

9. Favorite Sting-Vader match?

10. Ever seen AJ-Joe-Daniels from Unbreakable 05? If so what you think? Meltzer said its ***** and the best 3 way ever (better than WM20 even)

 

1.  Well that’s hardly a fair question.  You can’t make choices like that in a lightning round.

2.  Against Warrior at WM6.

3.  Demolition.  I was never into the Road Warriors.

4.  Midnights.  I’m more specifically a fan of Ricky Morton when it comes to the RNR.

5.  I’d say Godfather part 2 belongs in there, but I haven’t seen them all so it’s not fair to judge the rest.

6.  Shawn.

7.  Yes.  Yes it is.

8.  Funk was a former NWA World champion and a huge star long before he became a crazy old man, so yes, we’d still remember him.  For his WWF stint in the 80s if nothing else.

9.  The one from Starrcade 92.

10.  Yes, it’s definitely *****.  The three-way at WM didn’t happen and was just a dream (along with Backlash) so I don’t have a point of comparison, but hypothetically if that WM main event DID happen it’s still the best because of the bigger match feel.
