Pro wrestling weekly review: Catch Hall, release greedy Fatu
Another week has gone by in the world of pro wrestling, and you know what that means: welcome to another edition of The Eagle’s column we call Catch or Release, a rating of the week that was in the world of pro wrestling, divided up into two categories: Catch being good and Release meaning it needs to go. Before I start I would like to send out my sympathy to Fabulous Moolah’s family and friends. She will be missed greatly. She will always be a true legend that will never be forgotten. This edition of The Eagle’s Catch and Release is dedicated to her, her career, her memory, and all the great times she gave us. Now on to the business at hand. PLEASE drop me a comment to let me know your thoughts on the segment. Thanks for visiting pro wrestling’s fastest growing site!
CATCH —Festus and Jesse. These two are actually pretty impressive in the ring. Their gimmick is awesome and is really over with the crowd. The Eagle sees great things in their future.
RELEASE – The Chuck Palumbo/Kenny Dykstra feud. This is getting boring folks. I have seen both of these men do great things in the ring…. And they are being wasted right now.
CATCH —Scott Hall returning to wrestling. I cant wait to see “The Bad Guy” back in the ring. I have been told he looks great. Even if its just for a little while… this will give him a chance to go out with some pride.
RELEASE – Team 3D beating up the X Division. Now I’ll admit I popped for the X Division giving Team 3D a beat down this week…. But theres more to do with the X Division and Team 3D, TNA.
CATCH —Samoa Joe and Robert Roode. This was an impressive showdown on Impact this week. It ended with Joe being busted up. This is the push that Roode needs to show off his talent. Lets hope this continues.
RELEASE – Once again… the Hornswoggle saga. Ok this week wasn’t that bad but its still useless. The Eagle is all for comedy breaks but this just isn’t funny anymore.
CATCH —The development of Cody Rhodes. Rhodes has the talent and putting him with Hardcore Holly is really helping his development.
RELEASE – Junior Fatu asking for more money. There is no doubt that this guy is a asset to any company but to go in wrestle 5 matches and then ask for more money is just crazy. He has a chance and he blew it cause he got greedy.
CATCH —Tommy Dreamer’s match against Nunzio this week. This week we all seen the Tommy Dreamer we grew to love. He was aggressive and to make it better…. He didn’t job out.
Drum roll time - the biggest Catch and Release items of the week:
CATCH —JBL returning to the ring. If his attack Friday night on Undertaker and Batista wasn’t evidence that he is coming back… I don’t know what is. His comment afterwards saying “This is what I do” just adds to the conclusion he is coming back. The Eagle thinks this is great. I will say it again… JBL’s heel gimmick is only second to Edge.
RELEASE – D.H. (Harry) Smith getting suspended for violating WWE’s wellness policy. The Eagle is very disappointed in him. His own father fell victim to steroids and at one point Harry said he wouldn’t go down that road. Another liar among the ones caught? The Eagle thinks so. At least I expected it from Chris Masters. The Eagle lost hope for him along time ago.
As promised I have added something to my Catch and Release column. It’s time for the Catch and Release matches of the week.
CATCH —Christian Cage vs Chris Harris on TNA Impact. These two men really showed off their talent this week when they went at it in The Fight For The Right Tournament. These are the kinds of match I love to see every week. When you got the talent…. Use them.
RELEASE – Coachman vs Mick Foley on Friday Night SmackDown. It was useless and predictable… need I say more?
If you would like to nominate a match for either category, drop me a line. See ya next week!
