I ramble about things.

Classic Bite Commentary #22 – January 8th, 2003

A new year falls upon us… okay, that could have been said seven days ago, but so what? The first Bite of 2003 is gonna be longer than the rest of the pack. In fact, it could very well be the longest piece I have written.

NOTE: This happens to be posted a day late, so any comments written in bold italics are last-minute additions.

Since we’re in the year 2003, I thought I should take a look back at the year that was 2002. As I type this, I mentally, as well as physically, smack myself in the head thinking this kind of thing should have been done on the last Bite, but so what?

Dave’s Wrestling Rant #4 – Dec. 16, 2002

(2020 Update: This was the last edition of Dave’s Wrestling Rant, as I ended up talking about wrestling stuff in the Bite commentaries.)

Another rant from me… DAVE! If you enjoyed my brief TV reviews, thanks. Sorry I couldn’t put up the same thing last week, but I only watched RAW last week and figured it was not worth an entire rant, so I’ll leave last week’s comments here first…

Note: The whole commentary was written on Friday, but was never posted. Therefore, some items will be outdated. Just a head’s up.

PPV Predictions – WWE Armageddon 2002

For some reason, the original HTML file was labelled Survivor Series. I don’t recall if I ever did a Survivor Series picks, but this ain’t it. Therefore, it’s Armageddon 2002. In any case, I don’t remember this show aside from the World Title match between HBK and HHH, which I recall hating at the time, but somehow eased up on it at a later viewing. Don’t expect modern reflections for every match because I ain’t got any.

Classic Bite Commentary #21 – December 3rd, 2002

Hey kids. The past few days has been uneventful to say the least. Yeah, I know. The past few commentaries haven’t been particularly long (and the Jar-Jar thing was absolutely pathetic). Since NS is only going to air in February and since I’m keeping any wrestling-related comments to a minimum, there’s not much material for me to use anyway. However, there are some stuff I want to get off my chest and some stuff;

(2015 Dave Says: The “Jar-Jar thing” refers to a period of time when I had used an external gimmick to re-transcribe my website into Jar-Jar speak. In essence, every page would appear as though it was written by Jar Jar. There was even a commentary written in this form, though without said gimmick, the commentary was pretty worthless. It was a rather lousy gimmick that probably would’ve worked better as an April Fools gag, but then again, maybe not.)

Dave’s Wrestling Rant #2 – Nov. 24, 2002

Welcome to the second edition of Dave’s Wrestling Rant.

RAW 11-18-2002
The good news is that the show was actually watchable and featured some good matches to say the least and skits that didn’t bore the living crap out of me. The 11-25-2002 show will feature a match between RVD and HBK… but of course, something tells me that it won’t happen.

SMACKDOWN 11-21-2002
Another quality show from the Smackdown show, including a nice scene with Brock Lesnar throwing Matt Hardy through a table…

NWA-TNA PPV 11-20-2002
Vince Russo is Mr. Wrestling III? Some people were quite shocked by this and I don’t understand why. Because he’s a booker and not a wrestler? Because of the fallout rumors on the Internet? Who cares, as long as the shock booking worked… then again, maybe people are shocked that Russo has a job after he helped kill WCW.

Oh yeah, Jeff Jarrett is YOUR new NWA World champion… and that’s not much of a shock, man. Still, very good show.

That’s all I can think of. The rant will probably be updated every Sunday night or so.

Classic Bite Commentary #20 – November 21st, 2002

Good morning, boys and girls. This week was lots of fun for me thanks to our ever-diligent Montreal weather. If you are reading the commentary because of the “special announcement,” mentioned on the front page, let’s get on with it, shall we?

Dave’s Wrestling Rant #1 – Nov. 11, 2002

Welcome to the first edition of Dave’s Wrestling Rant.

RAW 11-4-2002
The good news is that the necrophilia angle has been ditched. Vince McMahon has finally realized that these stupid angles are stripping RAW of the viewership and fan base it is desperately trying to keep. Admittingly, it was a slight improvement over the week before, but it was still too boring and uninteresting. Tonight’s RAW has two matches that have potential: Triple H vs. Booker T and RVD/Kane vs. Christian/Chris Jericho for the tag straps.

SMACKDOWN 11-7-2002
The tag-team match between Rey Misterio/Edge and Kurt Angle/Chris Benoit was the whole F’n show! It more than made up for the stupid proposal angle earlier during the show (the less said the better.) Compared to this, Billy & Chuck’s gay wedding angle seemed like a good thing.

NWA-TNA PPV 11-6-2002
I didn’t catch the show, but I plan on catching the next one. From what I heard, this product is getting a little better.

WWE Confidential 11-9-2002
I didn’t get to see Confidential, but from what I read from 411wrestling.com, I didn’t miss much. I also discovered that the proposed Scott Steiner interview that was supposed to happen didn’t happen. Man, what a crock. I was one of the few people who was actually anxious to watch this show and see what it had to offer.

WWE Heat & Velocity
Who gives a rat’s ass about Heat & Velocity?
That’s all I can think of. The rant will probably be updated every Friday or so.
