>first ever televised Iron Man Match in the company's history>have the 2 best workers of the company at the time>no falls in the 60 minutes>1 fall in 1+ minute overtimeUnironically, what did they mean with this?
>Tyco RCthat shit was so dope in the early 90s, probably in 96 tooFast Traxx nigga - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=boSIv4cML_Eand I love Bret but yeah this match isn't really worth watching
>>19411524subverted your expectations, mark
I hate the iron man stip, maybe a long ass 60 minute match with no pins would actually be better for me
Bret and Shawn didn't work well together because they hated each other I guess. I'm not really sure.They just had no chemistry in the ring. Clash of styles maybe? Weird because Bret could carry almost anyone and Shawn certainly doesn't NEED to be carried but still nothing but mediocre matches.
>>19411524Two glorified midcarders having a boring, hour long jack off that culminated with HBK starting a title run so bad Vince had to take the water coolers out of titan towers to save money.
>>19411862watch Angle vs. Brockhttps://youtu.be/1lKti23wllA?si=_l36GCDFMYaOD_lOTHIS is how it should be done
>>19411878this ladder match wasn't too bad, think it was the first one in WWFhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHhj2VlV_wc
>>19411894Rock vs. HHH was pretty good too.
>>19411524Shawn wasn't willing to drop a fall
Iron Man is objectively a bad gimmick and should be replaced with a match where you have to get a two fall lead to win. This would allow you to have long multi-fall matches where every fall still matters.
the only good iron man match is the orton/cena one which devolves into looney toons shenanigans and orton trying to shoot murder cena with pyro
>>19411524>the two guys in the match are so equal in terms of skills that 60 straight minutes of wrestling can’t determine the winner.>it goes to overtime and one of them gets the slightest of slight edges and wins>it doesn’t feel like either of them were better than the other. No one walked away looking worse than they did, they both came out looking strong and their rivalry looked even stronger. There weren’t a dozen pinballs over and hour. It only proved that Shawn was better than Bret this one night for 3 seconds for whatever reason. He wanted it more, Bret let his guard down. Whatever the case may be I thought /pw/ is always talking about wrestling psychology? How is this hard to understand? >>19411700Fast Traxx was the shit
>>19411894>THIS is how it should be doneThey botched the finish and had to redo it for TV later kek
>>19413470I like this, but would add a 2:00 timer once the 2 fall lead is established. So the trailing wrestler would have one last desperate attempt to get back into the match in the case of a flash pin, DQ, and so on.
>>19411524lmao people were leaving during their match because they were boring. lots left before their match even started because both werent draws
>>19413518>>the two guys in the match are so equal in terms of skills that 60 straight minutes of wrestling can’t determine the winner.>>it goes to overtime and one of them gets the slightest of slight edges and winsThis is where the medium matters. What you wrote might be a compelling storyline if you're reading it in a novel, but when you're actually watching the match on PPV people want to see some action, especially if it goes on for a fucking hour.If they did a match where they were tied at 2 or 3 pins a piece by the time the hour is up and they still need to go into overtime, you get the same result of 60 minutes not determining the winner and the wrestlers being so evenly matched, except now the crowd is a lot less bored and the wrestlers are less obviously just jerking themselves off.Having match where the most pins within an hour determines the winner and when the hour is up no one even has any pins is also completely ignoring the story/action potential of what you can do with a special match type. It would be like having a Hell in the Cell where no one climbs the cell or gets thrown into or off of it. Why even have it then?
>>19411894Came to post this
If brett held onto the sharpshooter he would have won the match. He should have listened to what Rowdy Rowdy Piper said
