Kudos on your two year DDT Digest anniversary. Thanks for continuing the WorldWide reviews.
Yeah, we're coming up to the one year anniversary of WorldWide going to the magazine format. I'd prefer a solid hour of meaningless squashes and non-angle related matches, but the Exclusives are still appreciated.
On cue, Lenny Lane follows up last year's WorldWide win with a (tainted) victory over Eddie Guerrero on Thunder this week. I'm glad to see him getting some kind of push, even if it's in a no-win angle with Lodi.
Seeing the Gambler square off against Scotty Riggs, it reminded me of a {Pro} match 3-4 years back when it was on Saturday mornings, when I was shocked to see the Gambler pull the upset on Scott Studd (Riggs). How things change. Gambler is still jobbing (thought he'd get a win over Lodi a few weeks ago, but...) and Studd has gone up to tag team title, Flock, and back pretty much to where he started.
Whatever happened to
Booker T? Did I miss an angle, or just not
understand one? Injury?
You know, if we have to have the clips
from other shows...I liked them better when they
gave us a cruiserweight match each week. I don't
think they'll ever come up with some clip on
Worldwide that'll make some buy the PPV who
wouldn't have anyway, so why not make it fun
things to watch?
Hope I'm not stealing Bill's material, but you know the whole Lodi/Lenny Lane angle? Gone. Turner suits made them dump it. It was going turn out that they weren't gay, and we were all just reading too much into it, but that wasn't enough, evidently...
Sure, Scotty Riggs is back where he was, 3-4 years ago, but now he's got a magic mirror and a week-long title reign...worth the trip? Eh, maybe not.
Booker T disappeared into the blackhole of forgotten wrestlers, for most of last month. If they're going by fan reaction, Harlem Heat vs Triad (does the nWo get involved?) should give him some stuff to do...
