 Agreed. Despite what people are saying UW got a *far* bigger pop during the
UW/Savage interview with Okerlund. But Perfect/Flair will play a part.

 Agreed, BBD will win but it could be the best match of the night. Davey
Smith has forgotten more wrestling moves than Bret Hart ever knew - ask
anyone who's seen the matches he had in Japan, or even earlier in the UK. And
it seems his memory is improving, from what I've heard he's been having ****
bouts with Shawn Michaels at house shows.

>     - Money Inc. vs. Legion of Doom for the WWF Tag Titles
>Money Inc. to be DQ'd and retain the titles ( Vince can not have all face
>champions unless LOD does a turn prior to Summerslam)
 Nope. Roadies to squash Money Inc. The Disasters have the tag belts now.

>     - Undertaker vs. Kamala
>Easy win for Mean Mark  ( expect many situps )
 Agreed I guess. (who cares?)

>    - Papa Shango vs. Kerry von Erich
>This match will be altered with the suspension of KvE Shango to win against
>whoever he wrestles ( except HOGAN )
 Very astute! KvE is out. Tito Santana is in. S Q U A S H.

>     - Beverly Brothers vs. Natural Disasters
>Disasters to squash Bev Bros
 Nope. Bevs to pick up the tag straps so they can drop them to the LOD.

>     - Tatanka vs. Berzerker
>Perhaps the best match on the card.  Tatanka to win via DQ
 Agreed on both respects.

>     - Crush vs. Repo-Man
>Interestin match up    Crush to win (Hopefully putting Repo [what a lame
>excuse for a character] out of wrestling)
 Agreed. But Repo is soooo funny.

>     - Nailz vs. Virgil
> Virgil with the Big Boss Man making the save and causing NAILZ to lose.
 Nope. Nailz isn't going to job for Virgil in his first ppv exposure.

>I expect many,many run ins to occur through out the card.
 I don't!

>Cheers
>The Gladiator

 You missed out the Model beating Shawn Michaels thanks to interference from
Bret Hart (okay, it's a longshot...)

 And Duggan + Bushwhackers beating the Nasties + Mountie. At the last big WWF
TV show from Sheffield the Whackers even got a ten minute interview spot
where they told us about the pretty sheep they'd seen in England, and that
was after spending half an hour whacking through the crowd. God, it was hell.

 I don't think we'll see Flair vs Perfect until Next year.

                                                       John.
