BTW, did you notice that the WWF is now referring to him as "The Dog-Faced
Gremlin"?  Heenan said that he got the nickname in college because he was
so ugly.

So Curt Hennig is back in the ring again full time after an absense of
a year-and-a-half.

My question is: Is he happy with being a wrestler again, or would he
have rather stayed on the sidelines permanently?

How about "Battle of the Beauties"? He once had a semi-title in 
"King" with the crown as the prize/trophy. Plus, the coronation. Yeech.

Now, he can have them battle over some mirror or luscious gal -
not a $10 rent-a-date, either.

Really!

Thanks for the post, Kevin. Hope Flair does have say in his programming.
And to think of him fueding with Arn - boggles the mind. Or Ric Rude!

With the decline of WCW there was some mention of direct appeal to Ted Turner. 
Has anyone ever written or heard Tunrer's opinion on the current state of 
wrestling?  Way back when Georgia Championship Wrestling folded and Vince's 
crap took over for awhile, Ted came to the rescue and at least brought NWA 
back. Then he took over NWA and let it drift into this current imitation of 
WWF.  Has Ted any concern over Watts and his handling of WCW?

Or, more important question re this group: Do most of the subscribers to rspw 
prefer WWF cartoon show business freaks to any semblence of "wrestling" ?
Most of the time this group comes across as rec.sport.pro-wrestling.WWF .

I caught the whole show, and it was very good from top to bottom.
Jack as a face may be a bit strange, but I'll wait and see.

The intro match was Windham vs. Rhodes, and it was pretty action
packed.  I thought the ending was clever as well.  First, 
Windham shoves the ref so he can continue using fists.  Then Rhodes 
shoves the ref so they can continue the fight.  Then they both
shove the ref at the same time and get disqualified.

The Cactus match was good as well.  Heel vs. heel, street fight rules.
It's not something you see too often on TV.  Now, for my theory.
Could this be the first glimmer of booking from Greg Gagne and
Bill Dundee?  Here's why I ask.  First, it appears Dundee started
last week (or perhaps the week before).  I'm guessing that these
two matches were taped last Tuesday (the 5th) in Gainesville, GA.
And, finally, my fiancee asked me this question when Jack came 
out with the shovel: "Are they [WCW] getting a hint from that 
other show you always watch [referring to the Memphis USWA, 
where Dundee was last seen]?"  If so, perhaps there's still
hope left for WCW.  I hope today's Main Event signals a change
in direction...only time will tell.

This seems like poor timing, since Monday Night Football is over (I
for one will usually watch MNF over PTW, but watch PTW the rest of the
year).  If their ratings have been hurting, I hoped they looked
further back than when MNF started.

Vince, or whoever came up with the name, just pulled it out of the
movie "Dances With Wolves."  Never mind that the wrestler is supposed
to be Lumbee not Lakota. . . .
 
Ah, well.  I guess it's better than having an Italian pretending to

	I had considered and dismissed it. He was walking in with Ted DiBiase,
who had a match on the card earlier than Ric. Also, it would have taken five
seconds to sign his name for me, and I can't believe five seconds is all that
long of a period of time, no matter how late he was really running. Actually, I
was partly mad about what an a**hole he was about it. If he had apologized for
running late, or in some way acknowledged his appreciation of one of his
long-time fans, I would have had no problem. Has anyone else gotten an
autograph from Slick Ric? It's possible I just caught him on a bad day, and
ordinarily he would have signed.

...I tend to agree with Dave.  I think $25 is a very fair price.  I have dealt
    with alot of tape traders and the usually cost for a 6 hour custom made
    tape is between $50-$70.  I payed $61 to a guy awhile ago to make me a
    6 hour tape of Liger matches.

    I only put the tape up on the net after the netters I told about it
    encouraged me to.  They felt if I posted the match list, others would
    be interested.  I am a tape collector and trader not a businessman but
    I was willing to sell it if somebody wanted it but had nothing to trade.
    The $25 tab seemed agreeable to all in the past so I went with that.

    So far I've received about 50 replies, some to trade and some to buy.
    Either way, it's an outstanding tape and I just want people to see
    something other than Doink the Clown.

In the movie, 'Dances with Wolves'  they say tatanka = buffalo.

Also a side note, the Lumbee Indians (for which tatanka is supposedly

 Nope. The sunday noon show was not shown because of USA movie marathon. The 
WWF monday show will now be one hour and will be called 'Monday Night Raw" . 
For now this show will be live. The reason for this change is that Prime Time 
got losy ratings. In fact the ratings were often as low as 'Power Hour' which 
is WCW's worst rated show. But do not dispare, the Wiff has added a Saturday 
Morning show that is starting this comming saturday on USA. So there will be as
many hours of the Wiff on USA as ever.
