  1. 2 DAYS AGO

    With This Ring #61

    Ryan and Cindy go home once again, for one of them at least, as they review the 1999 United States version of No Mercy from Cleveland! Topics include: Ryan gushing over the No  Mercy video game for N64. Cindy talking about her most vivid memories of the Gund Arena/Quicken Loans Arena/Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse. The continuation and growth of the Hardy Boys against Edge and Christian feud in the Terri Invitational Tournament. (Silly acronym just a coincidence).  The departure of head writers Vince Russo and Ed Ferrera and what it would mean for the WWF and WCW.  We talk about the Godfather’s proper role in the opening match, probably not against Mideon for 8 minutes.  After that we get 76 year old Fabulous Moolah defeating Ivory to become the oldest Women’s Champ. The Holly’s screw up their own Tag Team Title match on the Smackdown before, costing the New Age Outlaws the Tag Team titles and then defeating them by DQ. We talk about Jeff Jarrett’s contract rolling over and him making sure he got a nice advance on his match with Chyna.  We talk about the Good Housekeeping match, the kind of rules that only make sense when they need to.  We get another quickie Rock match, reminiscent of the SummerSlam match against Billy Gunn, where Rock dispatches someone not in his league quickly.  We then have the front-runner for Match of the Year for 1999 and definitely the Match of the Night between Edge and Christian and the Hardy Boys as they totally revolutionize ladder matches in the WWF, delivering in a big way when given the spotlight.  We get another strange elevation match as Val Venis, last seen feuding with Steve Blackman over dildos, against Mankind, the person who was World Champ a little less than six weeks ago. The match is not great.  Steve Austin and Triple H have a very good 1999 WWF main event brawl. Weapons, including a boom camera, brawling all over the arena, Rock interference backfiring, a very cromulent end to the show. We look at Raw the next night where Mankind gives Rock his copy of Have A Nice Day. Mankind then gives one of his last great fired up promos, accusing the Rock of throwing out his book. Ryan shares his story of meeting Mick Foley for the first time about a week after
