Alright, here it goes...
(gonna review the actual matches in a bit)
Segments:
First off, opening rp. Pretty random, but kind of funny and entertaining in a good kind of way. I like crowley, he's a decent character. Boogeyman/goldust esqe in my opinion, makes for some good segments.
OD's RP went nicely leading up to his match, it was good that he decided to do it because the match needed a little build in my opinion.
Leon's promo with damian was cool, I could tell that it was gonna be nate facing him though. ARSE references are always awesome, by the way.
The jozzy/smith segment for their program was a joy to read. I like the ozzy-esqe dialouge attempts, and frank looking to be all business was cool to show that he can't be distracted from his title diffense. Crowley, justin, jozzy...still don't get it quite all the way, but it's entertaining nonetheless.
Mojo...has vince russo invaded OCW? It opened up a spot for parker to be part of the ppv though, wonder what's building there.
The hobo/smythe thing had some nice dialouge in it. I'm still adjusting to the hobo style talks, but I'm catching on. Looks like smythe and hobo have respect for one another, not sure exactly if smythe is trying to help the hobo ace the gimmick or what. Spam and spit, pricelss.
I think my rp toward ryder got the point across, though it being just a bit out of place was sort of a bummer. :(
Looks like mayhem is building an army, a guy like crowley could be a good soldier...he scares me. I think he may even want my preciousssss...meh, had to do that, kinda reminded me of the little lord of the rings troll guy there.
The bloodline is back in full, eh? Wesley seems to be a pretty clever character, candy fits along well too. Nice to see they got some muscle in there, those arnaud brothers look like they mean business...let's see what they can do for 2.0 in the tag team division.
Commentary:
Honestly this is just one of the things i'm not really getting behind. We have solid matches, solid promos, but I'm feeling the commentary to be just a little week. Maybe it's just that the dialouge doesn't have a great deal of passion in it, or possibly just because there may not be enough of it. Either way, I think it could be worked on within the near future. Scaggs and Al are good characters, but I just don't think they get their voice across. Maybe from now on instead of each just saying one short sentence after a match, take the stretch, and make it two. Also I think commentary could be a little more relevent. How about giving some highlights of some big spots after matches, it's looking too generic right now.
