Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!
Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
callanvass Live from San Jose, CAAttendance 18,542Your commentators are Jim Ross & Jerry LawlerVader Vs The Artist formerly Known as Goldust (W/Luna Vachon)Vader wins with a Vader bomb. The match was mediocre, but the crowd was red hot for Vader and it showed that he was ready to be pushed as a top face. The finish was sick as well, with Vader splashing Goldust with Luna on his back.*1/2 out of 5Steve Austin arrives in his truck. He tells Michael Cole to park it, but if he scratches it, he's gonna get his ass whipped. Sunny referees a midget match. I fast forwarded.The Rock says Michael Cole is a complete idiot. Can't deny that. He comments on Bill Clinton and Paula Jones. He says when go to bed with a dog, you're gonna wake up with fleas. "Hey, don't be silly! You gotta cover it, willy" Haha! He says he wants Shamrock one on one and he'll defeat Shamrock tonight.Intercontinental TitleThe Rock (C) Vs Ken ShamrockShamrock wins the title with a belly to belly suplex, but The Rock plants brass knucks in Shamrock's tights. The Rock motions for the ref to check Shamrock. The ref sees the brass knucks and reverses the decision. Shamrock snaps on the referee. This was a fun little match. These two have always had good chemistry with each other and this match was no different. The finish protects Shamrock and keeps the feud going. Win-win.*** out of 5Tag Team TitlesThe New Age Outlaws (C) Vs The Legion of DoomLOD wins by DQ after they handcuff Hawk to the ring and do a number on Animal with a chair. This was a pretty average match. These two never had great chemistry but their feud is very important historically because it represents the downfall of LOD and the rise of The New Age Outlaws.** out of 5Steve Austin wins the rumble. This was a very good rumble. There were no huge surprises, but there was a lot of fun stuff that happened. Mick Foley and Terry Funk beating each other senseless at the start was fun, as well as putting a garbage can on The Rock and beating him up. Foley coming out as all three characters is legendary and something you'll never forget. Owen Hart got a monstrous pop coming out and the crowd loved him. The Rock looked like a star, staying in there for almost 60 minutes. And last but certainly not least, The ol' Rattlesnake was epic as well. They strapped the rocket to his back and he took WWE to new heights. They did a great job of giving you doubts as to whether Austin was attacked backstage by not having somebody come out to their number. The crowd sensed it too. When Austin's music hit, the crowd erupted. Austin and The Rock being the final two at the end was only fitting. I can't forget the added tension between Rock and Farooq either. Overall, just a really fun rumble.Mike Tyson is elated that Austin won the rumble. He calls him "Cold stone" See, Santino Marella wasn't the first to do it.WWF Championship (Casket Match)Shawn Michaels (C) Vs The UndertakerHBK wins after Kane turns on The Undertaker. Kane lights the casket on fire while The Undertaker is in it.This is a fantastic match between these two, what else is new? It's exciting with many big spots and brilliant storytelling through Shawn's resiliency and Taker's relentless strikes. The ending is a classic, setting up Kane vs Undertaker at Wrestlemania. This is a very underrated match that doesn't get enough love.This PPV is a MUST see. It fires on all cylinders. The WWF was in excellent shape going forward and WCW was slowly starting to fade. The tide was turning and this PPV is a big reason why.9/10
reecelivesey123 I Thought the 1998 RR was a good event, Vader V Goldust was an OK match to open the show. Max Mini Mosaic and Nova V Batallion, Tarantula and El Torito was a fun match. Sunny played a nice role as the referee, i hadn't seen her much before but she looked hot. The Rock V Ken Shamrock was a good match, Rocky continued to impress and rise to the ranks, (my favourite Wrestler too). NAO V Road Warriors was a cool match too, DX Rule, and no doubt NAO were the best tag team in the WWE back then. The Royal Rumble itself was intense and excellent, Rocky did well and lasted to the end before being eliminated by Steve Austin who won the Rumble. HBK V Undertaker was match of the night and put on a great casket match. Shame HBK retired for 4 years shortly after. Also the ending was amazing and one not to be missed, Overall a Decent Show, ill give it an 8 out of 10.
MisterWhiplash Royal Rumble is a great event in the WWF, and in 1998 it was better than ever. This time, Stone Cold Steve Austin defied the odds and won the coveted Royal Rumble to face Shawn Michaels in his final match 2 months later. Mike Tyson also makes a funny cameo as himself (which leads up to him at Wrestlemania XIV). Entertaining and satisfying, with the Rock as Rocky Maivia. A+
Andrew Benjamin This is a great video. I mean you have many great matches including the royal rumble itself. There is also a midget match with the legendary Max Mini. This is a must see for any wrestling fan preferably WWF.
