The 1-2-3 Killam
Mid-Card Championship Winner
It's not really a Zema Ion thread. I just read your review of Hardcore Justice, as I'm putting the finishing touches on mine and I generally like to see how we stack up against each other. In a semi-unrelated note, I will say I tend to enjoy your reviews more when its about something older you've seen before; when you have to watch something live and review it at the same time I think it gets a bit dull at times because you have no real time to breath. Not to discount you or anything, just food for thought.
Anyways, my review goes up tomorrow - maybe late tonight - if you care to read it. We seem to be parallel on most things, except as per usual I'm a bit more lenient in the scoring department. Which is odd, because I always thought myself strict when it came to that sort of thing.
The only thing we are on opposite ends on is the X-Division match. Hence the thread. You scored it a D+ (I think) and basically the only review you gave it was that Zema Ion is really boring and shouldn't have won because he got outclassed. I'll admit, Zema isn't that excited. But there's something about a simple heel that doesn't try to be a tweener that I really enjoy. CM Punk does it well; Aries just looks like he's trying too hard half the time. Zema is just annoying as fuck, knows it, and I think he plays that part well. I think it's refreshing to just have a straight up heel character on the roster, and I don't mind him at all. I don't know, King might be the better wrestler, but he's got a lot of work to do in the promo department before I'll take him seriously. And that's coming from a big A|N|X fan...
I'm probably giving that match a 4, to a 4.5 out of 5. It was technically great, and reminded me a LOT of the X-Division matches of old. I tend to review based on the quality of a match, and then talk abou the story afterwards. But yeah, not a huge deal, I just wanted to figure out why the hell you graded that match so low!
