Match of the Day - Raven breaks Pre-Damien Sandow's fingers
Raven vs. Aaron Stevens - Heat (2002)
Probably the most remembered moment in Aaron Stevens', now known to the little Jimmies of the WWE Universe as Damien Sandow, first run in the WWE. Raven, who had been banished to wrestle on WWE's c-list shows thanks to the dreamer back in June, decided to humiliate his poor rookie opponent by "breaking" his fingers after the match was over.
What does this have to do with Easter?
Less than a year after this, Aaron Stevens returned to WWE to take part in APA's Bar Room Brawl Invitational as the one and only, Easter Bunny!
So basically Aaron Stevens is Jesus... He suffered (as Aaron Stevens), died (as the Easter Bunny), and was buried (as Idol Stevens), but then was resurrected (as Damien Sandow)!

Match of the Day - RIP Reid Flair
Reid Flair & Keiji Muto vs. Seiya Sanada & Tatsumi Fujinami - New Year Shining Series - AJPW (2013)
Here is young Reid Flair in a tag match with Keiji Muto against Seiya Sanada & Tatsumi Fujinami at a jammed packed AJPW event from January. Reid had just got back from his tour of Japan and was ready to work some indy shows when he was found dead in his hotel on Friday.
Such a shame to lose someone so young regardless of their personal demons.

Match of the Day - Jerry Lynn's WWF debut
Jerry Lynn vs. Crash Holly - Light Heavyweight title match - WWF Sunday Night Heat (Backlash pre-show) (2001)
In honor of Jerry Lynn, one of the most underrated workers in wrestling, calling it quits for real this time last Saturday night, here's a little gem of him during his short stint in WWF after making a name for himself in ECW...
In honor of Jerry Lynn, one of the most underrated workers in wrestling, calling it quits for real this time last Saturday night, here's a little gem of him during his short stint in WWF after making a name for himself in ECW...
In Jerry Lynn's first match on WWF television, the New F'N Show challenged Crash Holly for his Light Heavyweight belt. And won.
Crash Holly, an already 11 time Hardcore champion by this time showed that he could also wrestle without weapons (or his cousin Bob) as he held his own pretty well in this precursor to the Cruiserweight Division in WWE type match. Unfortunately for Crash however, Lynn got the better of him and ended his one time reign as Light Heavyweight champ via a quick roll-up and a little help from tights.
Lynn would go on to hold the title from April until June of that year before dropping the belt to Jeff Hardy on Smackdown! Lynn didn't get much air-time on WWF other than that and some dark matches and matches on Heat with Rob Van Dam (who he has had countless solid matches with) and even a young debuting Chris Daniels.

Props to WWF for letting Paul Heyman talk up Jerry Lynn during this match - including amention of Lynn's early feud in GWF with "X-Pac" (who was The Lightning Kid at the time) in the early 90's.
Bonus: In Jerry Lynn's retirement match facing off against Horace the Psychopath, JB Task, and Sean "X-Pac" Waltman, Waltman supposedly tore open his anus performing his signature Bronco Buster. I shit you not! It's even on Wikipedia... check it out.
Spectators had no idea that Waltman was hurt; they thought that he was crying after the match because Jerry Lynn is now retired.

Match of the Day - The Unbreakable Triple Threat match
A.J. Styles vs. Samoa Joe vs. Christopher Daniels - 3-Way Dance for the X Division title - TNA Unbreakable (2005)
Some people call this TNA's best match. Some people call this the best triple threat match of all time. What ever it is, it is a whole hell of a lot of fun. That's right! TNA and fun almost in the same sentence...
It's hard to believe that all three men in this thrilling 3-way for the X Division title, a title that was heavily contested at this time and a big deal, are still employed by TNA as minor characters that aren't related to Hulk Hogan. Don't get me wrong, Chris Daniels, along with his tag team partner, Kazarian are probably the best tag team that TNA has got right now and the two blend phenomenally, but AJ and his sulking biker gimmick and all around lack of Samoa Joe in the Impact Zone is a sad comparison to what these guys were dishing out every match like they were at Unbreakable in 2005.
Rumor has that the current X Division title will soon be contested via triple threat match-ups only which means that TNA will either we introducing us to some new talent or they are just going to be having this match played at every PPV in place of the X Division title match for now on.
Honestly though, that's really not that bad of an idea at this point in TNA's life.

Song of the Day - Spring Into Winter
Black Eyes - Spring Into Winter from Cough (2004)
It's the first day of Spring and I got out of three classes this morning due to the snow storm last night...
*Insert witty Maine joke here*

PS: I still regret not grabbing this album by the former Washington, DC no-wave avantcore outfit, Black Eyes when I saw it in a local record store tucked away in the hip-hop section.
Match of the Day - "The Nasty Boys are Cactus's toys"
The Nasty Boys vs. Cactus Jack (w/missing ear) & Maxx Payne - Chicago Street Fight for the WCW Tag Team Championship - Spring Stampede (1994)
Another one of those Nasty Boy street fights that goes out into the merchandise stand. According to WWE.com it's one of the best WCW matches of all time. What makes it better than the other street fights like this one in 1994? Was it Cactus & Payne? Was it the sheer brutality for '94? Was it the stiffness? Was it the table spot?
Maybe it was the Cactus Jack bump in perfect Mick Foley fashion (that has been well documented on this site) at that end there - from the ramp to the floor - before getting whacked in the head with the shovel against his missing ear (Cactus lost it a month prier in German in his infamous match with Big Van Vader).
I didn't know the Nasty Boys were from Maine... It's spring time and they're still using snow shovels.

Match of the Day - DX take on The Oddities w/The Inane Clown Posse
D-Generation X (Billy Gunn, Road Dogg, & X-Pac) vs. The Oddities (Kurrgan, Golga, & Giant Silva) - Raw is War (1998)
I know, I know, ICP again? Well, at least they're not wresting this time. Wouldn't that be something, though?
Psych! It would be awful.

Psych! It would be awful.
I'm not going to lie, The Oddities, consisting of Kurrgan (the really big guy that fought Sherlock Holmes in the first RD Jr. series), Giant Silva (the 90's Great Khali if Great Khali could wrestle even a little), and Golga (a smaller John "Earthquake" Tenta under a gold mask and a love for Cartman) along with D-Generation X had my favorite entrance music of this time. I was young...
Not too long after this, Shaggy and Scoob... I mean... Violent J, would turn their backs on The Oddities and side with an even more off-color team, The Headbangers (Mosh & Thrasher).

Match of the Day - Yep, Braun the Leprechaun.
Braun the Leprechaun vs. Todd Morton - WCW Pro (1996)
Happy St. Paddy's day!
I can't resist...
That's right, that leprechaun that briefly appeared in WCW in 1996 as a member of the Dungeon of Doom actually had a name: Braun. It rhymes with, well, leprechaun.
Looking back on it now, this gimmick wasn't so bad after seeing Little Bastard - errrr, I mean, Hornswoggle continually get put in godawful storylines after storylines in WWE. Don't get me wrong, I loved leprechauns as a kid; but the best part of a leprechaun is that they are rooted in mystery... Hornswoggle's mysteriousness was lost as soon as he left his home from under the ring. Braun the Leprechaun on the other hand will forever be one mysterious little man with a few matches like this one on WCW's c-list show, Pro.
That is, of course, until you realize that Braun was Sarge, that tough guy from WCW's Power Plant who once tagged with his top trainee, Bill Goldberg.
"You red-headed booger, you!" - Insane Dusty commentary included.

Match of the Day - Super Crazy finds himself a tag team partner to face The Unholy Alliance!
Sinister Minister's Unholy Alliance (Mikey Whipreck & Yoshihiro Tajiri) vs. Super Crazy & Kid Kash - ECW Massacre on 34th Street (2000)
Sorry for my absence... Once you start playing catch-up it's easier to just give up. I'm not back now though and trying to clean up this place.
Despite almost on their way out the door as a company at this time (this was their second to last PPV), ECW still had a lot of young talent that were trying their best to put on a show. An ECW show even for that matter. Some can argue and say that once ECW hit the limelight on Television, it was no longer cool. But as a kid hearing about ECW for the first time at this point and actually getting to watch it at some obscure time for a couple Friday nights, it was still awesome to me.
Though I never watched this match on the few occasions that I got to watch ECW, this is still a really well worked match from right around that time. It's the Unholy Alliance of Tajiri and Mikey Whipwreck led by their Sinister Minister, James Mitchell, taking on Super Crazy and a partner of his choosing. And who did he choose? No one. But as soon as the match kicks off, Kid Rock starts playing from the speakers and out comes Kid Rock himself!
Just kidding it was Kid Kash.

Match of the Day - Triple H's third match of the night on Smackdown! in 1999
Triple H vs. Mankind - Boiler Room match - Smackdown! (1999)
Flip back over to WWF in 2000 and you would see a lot of Triple H. This was at the height of HHH's push as himself and meant he was in the spotlight a lot. Some say it could be due to the lack of Stone Cold at times and others could say it was due to him banging Mr. McMahon's daughter, Steph, never the less, late 1999-2000 was all HHH.
On one Thursday night Smackdown! (remember those) in late 1999 though, There was a lot more Triple H than the normal Triple H show... See, Triple H that night would actually be in 5 matches! If he couldn't win 3 out of 5 of them that night HHH would not get his title shot he had won Yep, this was just his third bout here taking on his soon-to-be foe, Mankind in Mankind's specialty match, a Boiler Room Brawl.
A Boiler Room Brawl is when two competitors fight inside the confines of the arena's un-padded boiler room with the winner being the first person out of the room.
Triple H gets his second win of that night after escaping the boiler room unharmed thanks to someone pushing Mankind off of a high place for another Mankind super bump. I believe it was later relieved to be Chyna but I honestly do not remember when and how it was relieved...

Match of the Day - Insane Clown Posse challenge Mike Awesome and his bus to a hardcore match... and lose
Hardcore Wednesday:
Insane Clown Posse vs. That 70's Guy Mike Awesome - Hardcore handicap match - Monday Night Nitro (2000)
While I'm on the subject of shitty handicap matches...
It's 2000, my mark meter is off the charts, I didn't miss a Hardy Boyz match, and I'm pro-WWF through and through, but for some reason one Monday night I decide to switch the channel over to the competition - WCW and their Monday night wrestling product, Nitro. I'm not sure why I did it, probably curiosity or some shit like that, but I did it. And guess what I just so happened to stumble upon? Ding ding! This very match...
Now to be fair, before getting into WWF and The Hardyz, I actually watched quite a bit of WCW. But when I tuned into Nitro again for the first time in some time, it didn't look like I remembered it... No, this time, there were two clowns, a guy dressed like the 70's, and the Partridge Family bus. No ring, no NWO, no nothing.
Then it happened, Mike Awesome 'Awesome Bombed' Shaggy 2 Dope on top of the bus and 2 Dope slides off and takes a nasty splat onto the ground. Thanks to this unforgettable match, I believed for some time that handicap matches were matches where someone ends up handicap like that stupid-looking clown on Nitro in 2000.

Match of the Day - Santino's cross-dressing alter ego, Miss Piggie, & a big pile of shit
Santina Marella vs. Vickie & Chavo Guerrero - Handicap Hog Pen match for the title of Miss Wrestlemania - WWE Extreme Rules (2009)
Get a load of this shit:
I don't know where to start with this match. I mean, it's got Santino Marella in drag as his "twin sister" Santina taking on Vickie Guerrero who somehow won a Miss Wrestlemania (during some 'Mania filler I must have missed while taking a bathroom break) with the help of her nephew, Chavo in his "nice" clothes. Oh yeah, and there's a hog pen full of shit. And I'm not just taking about this match or The King's constant botching beforehand either.
While the first hog pen match featuring the Connecticut Blue Blood, Hunter Hearst Helmsley and Henry Orpheus Godwinn - whose initials cleverly make out the word HOG - started in the ring and eventually made its way to the pig sty where the loser was whoever got thrown in first, most hog pen matches today are placed next to the stage and start and finish in the pen.
So yeah.. It's a pretty shitty match.

Owen Hart vs. Ken Shamrock - Stu Hart's Dungeon match - WWF Fully Loaded: In Your House (1998)
The Black Hart takes on The World's Most Dangerous Man in the closest thing to home field advantage in this 1998 gem from Fully Loaded. Not only was this match held in Stu Hart's "Dungeon" where many great superstars learned the way of wrestling, it was also a submission match featuring the referee duties of Dan Severn just to add to the uniqueness of this forgotten match.
Wrestling fans always heard about this Dungeon, but few had ever seen it. Turns out this training facility once operated by the Hart family was just a basement with a tarp over the ground. Guess all those stories about how tough and enduring the Dungeon was - adding in the Stu Hart screaming in your face factor - were pretty accurate.

Rey Mysterio Jr. vs. Ric Flair - World Heavyweight title match - WCW Nitro Spring Break-Out (1999)
What better way to kick off my Spring Break then with a little blast from the past featuring Ric Flair taking on the unmasked Rey Mysterio Jr. in Rey Rey's first World Heavyweight title shot (according to Michael Buffer) at WCW's coverage of Monday Night Nitro at Panama City Beach, Florida for their annual Spring Break-Out special. AKA the WCW with the swimming pool around the ring!
This match isn't so much a blast from the past as much as it just reminds me of how much MTV and other teenager-friendly channels on TV used to broadcast Spring Break related events like this one at Club La Vela.
