Did anyone else notice that this show could have been titled
Wrestlemania losers? Matches included Snake,Santana, and a few
others who either lost/were absent from WM8...

I disagree.  There are some very good wrestlers who just happen to be
"good guys".  Just because I enjoy their skills doesn't make me a mark.

Now if I believed everything that happened in the ring was real: that

I agree. This was one of the best rough scientific matches I have seen in a
long time. I brought back memories of the old Anderson reign of terror. Arn
brought back many of his old moves and methods and Brad 
sold them well without doing a total job in the match. I was amazed they let
Brad show off his stuff. He took the upper hand several times during the match
nad reallyl got the crowd cheering for him when he asked for their approval.

I can only hope that this will lead for bigger and better things for Brad. He
is so underutilized now. He's got the experience and skill to keep up with any
of the big boys.

Steamboat pinned Flair with a small package of some sort, seems to me.
It wasn't a squash, I know that, or they wouldn't have had the Nature Boy
win it back.

Perfect's IC win was as clean as Luger's win over Windham.  Santana was
in control of the match, then Bobby came running out which surprised
Tito (the Genius had been advising Perfect-- he had never been
associated with Heenan before), and Perfect got the pin.

Excuse me?  His interviews are some of the best out there today!  The only

Armstrong was a heel for awhile. I'm assuming this is Brad Armstrong
we're talking about (doesn't matter, Steve was in the Pistols). He wasn't
a heel under his own name, but he was the character under the Badstreet
mask (with Freebirds).

Subject: WWF & Steroids
Organization: Locus Computing Corporation, Los Angeles, California
Date: Thu, 09 Apr 1992 21:49:02 GMT

Having seen the name Dr. Anthony Daly, Jr. mentioned in an earlier post
(sorry, I don't have a better attribution) perked up my interest since
I had an appointment today with a othopedic doctor with the same name.
So I asked my doctor if he had any dealings with Titan sports.  The name
Titan didn't ring a bell for him but when I mentioned steroids he said that
I must mean the WWF.  He said that Vince McMahon approached him in October
to start testing for steroids and that he will be doing it until May.  He
is quitting due to not having the time.  My impression is that he is a few years
away from retirement and is simply lightening his load.  He mentioned that
steroid use has dramatically decreased since beginning the program.

He also mentioned that he did the testing for the Olympics and for Major League
Baseball (didn't mention whether it was for the Angels or the Dodgers but I
would assume it was the Dodgers).

I was kind of stunned actually getting to speak to an "insider" that our
conversation was too brief.  This was very similar to the time I sat next
to Marla Maples agent (a couple of seats down from Donald Trump) at last years
Wrestlemania and kept annoying him with WWF questions.

So, if anyone has some good questions for the Dr., please e-mail them to
