Comments: I like
The Heenan Family narrative; it gives an element of realism to proceedings.
This match begins as soon as we have some of the baby faces in the ring, the
commentary team do an excellent job bringing us the action, we also have a
little bit of comedy throughout this match with the involvement of Heenan.
This pay-per-view receives: 5/10, this pay-per-view is mixed; yes most of these
match slots are positive including the promos or anything in the middle of
them. But this pay-per-view has one gigantic problem and experienced viewers of
wrestling would know this as well.
Now
there are 5 matches on this pay-per-view card and I really don't want to tell
you this, but I have to; to justify the marking of this pay-per-view. Sadly at
some point or another the participants of these matches sometimes don't get
their entrance music or any entrance music, which clearly indicates they aren't
winning [I know, I know I could look on the Internet for the results and yes I
do use those places for spelling names and information.] But I don't want to be
told even before the match begins that these participants aren't winning, this
is better known as the jobber treatment, as in this individual or individuals
aren't winning so why should we waste time giving them an entrance just to
cover my back, because I know how social media works, it isn't unheard of for
someone or a group or whatever to have this treatment and pick up the W. So I
would say 99% of the time they aren't winning. I don't know why they just
didn't stick with the Captain's entrance music and have the more come down
together, like they did for the first match/part with The Enforces; if it was
all about time management of the actual pay-per-view. In fact this idea would
have solved these two problems of jobbing these established
wrestlers/characters/other on-screen personalities and time management of this
pay-per-view and it wouldn't have infuriated me, trust me the last time it
happens on this pay-per-view I went mental, because it took so much of the
enjoyment away of this pay-per-view. On reflection I can't believe they
actually did it in the first place and for those quick minded people, yes this
does not apply to the Warrior and hence why I couldn't say too much when The
Finkel was introducing some of these opponents, for future reference unless it
is something interesting or note worthy I will just keep it basic as it relates
to the Ring announcers introducing the matchesAnd lastly the crowd participation has to be given a special mention for playing their part and being there/here for this pay-per-view.
Basic Result: the WWF
Intercontinental Champion The Ultimate Warrior, "Powerhouse" Jim
"The Anvil" Neidhar, The Rockers: Shawn Michaels & Marty pick up
the Win.
Basic walk-through of this event:
*
The WWF Intercontinental Champion The Ultimate Warrior on leaving the ringside
area to go to the back runs passed Heenan to give him a running clothesline.
Simultaneously in a nutshell Monsoon saying goodbye and promoting upcoming
event with the movie No Holds Barred and this wrestling event on Wednesday
27/12/1989.
*
Still photographs and the entrance music of the WWF Intercontinental Champion
The Ultimate Warrior: look back over this pay-per-view in pictures, the name of
The Ultimate Warrior's entrance music is "Unstable." Which I should
have remembered this, because his character was enthusiastic, but if slightly a
bit unstable. Back to live pictures of Heenan still struggling with the effects
of the clothesline.
