• 3 matches will be spotlighted every Sunday morning based on their nostalgic qualities, their in-ring performances, their campiness, and their performers’ contributions to today’s wrestling world.
• Not EVERY match will be a squash, but it’s always nice to see the fan favorite totally dominate.
• Main event of Squash Match Sunday will normally have a title on the line, and will ALWAYS be a quality wrestling match.

…Let’s get to the action!

MID CARD HANGOVER

Our Mid Card Hangover brings us one of many, many matches between Tiger Mask and the Dynamite Kid. This one is for the WWF Jr. Heavyweight title, which as we all know was a prestigious belt. Up there with the Hardcore belt and the FTW title it was!

Things to keep an eye/ear out for:

• What’s up with the rings in the last few weeks? This ring seems WAYYY bigger than usual. Perhaps I should’t do shots of absinthe before writing these articles.
• I apologize for the language barrier. It’s kind of funny to hear them talking a mile a minute then say “DYNAMITE KIDDA!” though.
• Gotta love the kick-out by Dynamite Kid at the 4 count. Classic.

YOUR MAIN EVENT OF THE MORNING

YOUR Main Event of the Morning showcases Bret Hart and Chris Benoit as they wrassle for the vacant world heavyweight Title at WCW Mayhem ’99. The title was stripped from Sting at Halloween Havok ’99 after he furiously made out with referee Charles Robinson during an unsanctioned match with Goldberg.

Part 1:

Part 2:

Part 3:

Your main event worthy commentary of the afternoon:

• Match starts at 3:10 if you don’t want to sit through the WCW broadcast team try to kill time between Benoit walk from his dressing room to the ring followed by Hart walk the same route. I think it’s Mongo who during this time utters the phrase: “Two men from Canada”.
• The fireworks erupting seconds after Benoit taps makes it wayyy too obvious that they were putting Hart over from the get-go. No wonder they say the streets of Canada are clean, they throw all their trash into the ring after Bret Hart makes Chris Benoit tap!
• Yes, yes, yes…this is the match that they use for the “Malcolm In The Middle” intro.

MID CARD HANGOVER

Our Mid Card Hangover is the first of two scheduled WWF heavyweight championship matches at Wrestlemania X, as Lex Luger takes on the champion Yokozuna. The winner of this match would go on to face Bret Hart, who lost earlier in the evening to one of his brothers. I think it was Bruce? Or Dave? I’m just kidding, it was obviously Diana Hart.

Part 1:

Part 2:

Things to keep an eye/ear out for:

• Here’s something to keep an eye out for…EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS FOR THE FIRST TWO AND A HALF MINUTES (Rhonda Shear as the timekeeper, Donny Wahlberg as the announcer, Mr. Perfect as the MC Hammer impersonator / guest referee)
• I don’t know what’s more funny: every time Luger fails to slam Yokozuna, or Cornette’s ring attire.
• I’m sorry, I will never get over the fact that Jerry Lawler always wore his tights to commentate for the longest time. I’m pretty sure he didn’t wrestle that night and was STILL not wearing a shirt.
• I love Mr. Perfect’s reasoning at the very end: “That’s my story and I’m ssssssticking to it!”

YOUR MAIN EVENT OF THE MORNING

In honor of CM Punk recently winning the WWE Championship, I thought we could take a straight-edge stroll down Memory Lane and revisit Punk’s early days in ROH. For YOUR Main Event of the Morning, CM Punk takes on Samoa Joe at ROH/TWC’s International Showdown.

Part 1:

Part 2:

Part 3:

Your main event worthy commentary of the afternoon:

• You know, I’ve been looking for my old school WWF wrestling ring for my action figures. Of all places, it’s in England being used for an epic rematch!
• Seriously, how did CM Punk leave this match with his face still connected to his skull!
• Shame this Samoa Joe guy never panned out :(

Little introduction to this article series:

• 3 matches will be spotlighted every Sunday morning based on their nostalgic qualities, their in-ring performances, their campiness, and their performers’ contributions to today’s wrestling world.
• Will always showcase the big 3 (WWF/E, WCW, TNA).

• Not EVERY match will be a squash, but it’s always nice to see the fan favorite totally dominate.
• Main event of Squash Match Sunday will normally have a title on the line, and will ALWAYS be a quality wrestling match.

Now before we get to the action, I’d like to apologize for not posting last Sunday. My apology comes in the form of WWF’s old school viewer discretion warning being read by the original diva…Sunny!

Christopher Daniels takes on Rhino in a 2009 TNA ring….I mean a 1999 ECW ring! Did somebody order a side of SWERVE with their Early Bird Special???…no?…ok, I’ll send it back.

MID CARD HANGOVER

Our Mid Card Hangover takes us back to 2009 as Triple H (YES, HE USED TO BE A WRESTLER) takes on John Morrison (YES, HE USED TO BE WITH MELINA) on Friday Night Smackdown (YES, PEOPLE USED TO WATCH IT).

Things to keep an eye/ear out for:

• Jim Ross definitely calls John Morrison a “young Rick Rude”…I miss you JR.
• Now apparently, HHH had to take part in TWO more matches after this. Imagine if he lost the first match. Would he have to compete in the other two? How awkward would that be???
• I wish I had more scathing, pithy comments but this is a well-called match.
• Enjoy!

YOUR MAIN EVENT OF THE MORNING

WCW Cruiserweights invade YOUR main event of the morning as the WCW Cruiserweight Champ Dean Malenko takes on the J-Crown Cruiserweight Champion Ultimo Dragon in a Title Unification match at Clash of the Champions 1997.

Part 1:

Part 2:

Your main event worthy commentary of the afternoon:

• Carrying 8 titles to the ring automatically makes you a heel. Being foreign? Double heel!
• Why did Mike Tenay join right as the match start? Was he being shy during the intros?
• I seriously want to see Sonny Onoo hold his pants up with the WCW Cruiserweight belt.
• …Damn! I gotta stop picking amazing matches. Enjoy the wrasslin folks!

MID CARD HANGOVER

Now I feel like I’ve had Sting in at least one match a week on Squash Match Sunday for the past few weeks…but…here’s Sting taking on Vampiro in a House of Pain match on WCW Nitro back in 2000.

Things to keep an eye/ear out for:

• So this modified cage match has no referee and the only way to win is to shackle your opponent to the cage so you can “have your way with him”. Tony Schiavone must be salivating at the possibilities.
• STOP CALLING IT A HOUSE OF PAIN! It’s a cage!
• Two facts you might have forgotten about Vampiro:
     • Vampiro was not only the main booker for MTV’s Wrestling Society X BUT he was      also the first champion in said promotion.
     • Dude was a WCW tag team champ with The Great Muta. Seriously.

YOUR MAIN EVENT OF THE MORNING

Here’s a treat for everyone who listened to Bowling Shoe Handsome and either was interested to see that hackjob of a rematch between Hulk Hogan and The Undertaker OR was wondering what the hell “This Tuesday in Texas” was.

YOUR main event of the morning is Hulk Hogan vs. The Undertaker (c) at This Tuesday in Texas.

Part 1:

Part 2:

Your main event worthy commentary of the afternoon:

• From the very start of the first video, Gorilla Monsoon is already blabbering about nothing. At least Bobby the Brain is there to even things out.
• I like how Gorilla tries to explain why an atomic drop doesn’t affect Taker. I was really hoping Monsoon would have used the phrase ‘mutilated genitalia’ in his botched explanation.
• Undertaker using his signature move, “The Claw to the Face”. And by signature move, I mean WHAT THE HELL???
• Watching this match really hammered home one thing: Hulk Hogan definitely poured cremated ashes into his hand so he could blind a human being.
