Comments: as I have just said this match is lots of fun including the aftermath, but I did get lost on the end of this match [I will discuss this in the Spoiler Alarm Version.]

This Pay-Per-View receives: 7/10, this Pay-Per-View; generally speaking is good, without giving too much away in this version the wrestling, Commentary and the Pay-Per-View storylines of Robocop, Sting, Lex Luger [his health plays a role in this Main Event] and The Four Horseman are clearly the consistent positives of this Event and not forgetting the Crowd Participation for most parts of this Pay-Per-View, but the scripted/constructed conclusions of these matches are in hindsight in some cases poor, just to clarify I'm not talking about the results of these matches, I'm talking about what happens to get us there.

The highest ranking match on this Card based on attributes that we see would be: the US Heavyweight Champion Lex Luger vs. the World Heavyweight Champion "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair [with Woman;] for the World Heavyweight Championship in a Steel Cage Match with 58/60.

The lowest ranking match on this Card based on attributes that we see would be: "Precious" Paul Ellering vs. Theodore "Sugar Ray" R. Long: Manager vs. Manager/Hair vs. Hair Match with 13/60

Match/Stipulations: Doom [Ron Simmon & "Hacksaw" Butch Reed with Theodore R. Long] vs. the World Tag Team Champions The Steiner Brothers [Rick Steiner "Dog Face" & Scott Steiner - Real Life Brothers.]

Match Attributes:

Match Quality: 5/10

Match Storyline: 5/10

Crowd Participation: 8/10

On Commentary: Jim Ross & Bob Caudle 7/10

Satisfying Conclusion: 5/10

Recommend Watch: 5/10

Match Total: 35/60 - this match is mixed; yes this match just needed one more mark to be put in the good section of my marking system.

Comments: but as you can see this match had a lot of help from the Crowd Participation and On Commentary, I have gone with Rick Steiner "Dog Face" because Commentary mentioned it a very tiny amount of times; I knew of "The Dog Face Gremlin" but not of this name, I have more to say I just can't say it here, so it will be here in the Spoiler Alarm Version.

Satisfying Conclusion: 8/10

Recommend Watch: 8/10

Match Total: 46/60 - this match is excellent; well it is almost excellent

Comments: now I should just clarify what I mean by "Well it is almost excellent"; for a large section of this match; it is really strange because at the beginning they are into it and then it's like a light switch has been turned off to the point where you could hear individual people and yes eventually they warmed up and got into it again but as you can tell from my marking of this match this was an excellent match But to put it into the excellent section I decided to put another mark on to the Recommend Watch category, that is how excellent this match is; if you like tag team wrestling this match will suit you down to the ground.

I do understand that crowds do get burned out or exhausted, but then again there is always something happening in this match; so how you cannot be into this match from bell to bell is beyond me.
