Ultimo Dragon has been sidelined with a broken leg, for 7 months.

OOC Note: This was the final show before Wrestlemania. The injury will change the dark match, but, it will be someone with skills similar to Ultimo's. Make your predictions for Wrestlemania quick, as the show will hopefully be up by Wednesday, if not, then it could be as late as Saturday. I will announce that instead of Ultimo Dragon it will be The Dynamite Kid facing Rey Misterio in the Wrestlemania dark match, the card will be changed asap.

My Thoughts: Some surprising results with matches, qualities and stuff, like Taker Vs. Texas Tornado, and then Jannetty and Malenko, so, those were good and unexpected and I enjoyed this show, but, this was kinda off on what we usually do, next show will be more normal, this one was based solely around the feuds, not getting guys over or anything, except for Eddie.

Whenever someone bugs me and asks for a review I tend to be a little harsher and more critical than normal. However, you didn't QUITE do that, you just hemmed and hawed on MSN and rambled about how good your diary was until I offered to give you a patented TGC Review And Rant. In retrospect you are going to wish you had never talked to me on MSN, let alone bragged about yourself. My apologies in advance if this seems harsh, but after being subjected to this I can't think of one positive thing to say.

Let's get the grade out of the way right off the bat. An F. Period. You deserve less, but there's no grade that I know of that's lower than an F so it'll have to do.

You don't understand your time period at all, you don't understand how the WWF worked in 1992, and you certainly don't understand what the TV shows in 1992 were like. I mean, I read the opening shows which featured one PPV level match after another booked, I read someone telling you that this was incorrect and explaining how things work, and then I read you continue on in the same vein without changing a thing, let alone acting as if you read the criticism. So allow me to say it AGAIN. In 1992 the TV shows were all basically squash matches designed to make the faces look good and the heels look badass. The Main Events were Midcard level matches. I can't ever remember seeing a major title change happen, and title defenses were never so big that there was ever any doubt that the champion was going to retain. Changing this style is fine, can be done, and hell I did it myself, but it requires a gradual change that seems normal and is not jarring to the readers who know the time frame. Seeing Hogan and Flair in MAJOR matches on Superstars is something that would simply not happen, let alone on the same show.

You talked to me on MSN about nobody replying to your diary with a thought out response, but you did get one very early on and you didn't change a thing that he mentioned as being wrong. However barring that response, I agree that you get nothing but postwhorish replies from the usual suspects here in The Dome. However you don't seem to care that you won't get a detailed response to anything with results and write-ups like this. If you write in a "who cares, basic is best" kind of style, expect nobody but the postwhores to come in here and do just that. If, however, you want thought out, critical, but fair and impartial replies then you have to write in a style that lends itself to those kinds of replies. Two to four line match write-ups and promos that don't even bother to tell the reader what the hell was talked about are not the correct way to garner the responses you want.

So you brought in all the good to great talent that EWR offerd up in this time period, but you once again show that you don't understand the WWF in 1992. Benoit, Al Snow, Eddie G, The Malenkos, and The Thrillseekers are all good, but they are also tiny men who would be jobbers and enhancement talent only in the "big man rules" WWF of 1992. None of these guys would ever get a chance to be anything but lower midcarders at best, not for many more years, as WWF didn't see the smaller men as anything but enhancement talent. You can make a name for HBK, but he wasn't as high up as you seem to want to make some of these guys in 1992. And don't get me started on Rey Mysterio in the WWF in 1992. If you want to write a fed that uses these guys, your BETTER best in a WCW diary or an indy fed.

I could go on, I have another ten things to disect and rip to shreds, but I don't think it's worth it. I don't think you'll listen/read/care. This diary is not good, and it is entirely your own fault. If this style is what you must do, then WWF in 1992 is the wrong diary to be doing it with, period.

AND TO THE POSTWHORES....stop now or start racking up warnings.
