WWECLASSICS on Demand Showcase
The History of the Intercontinental Title: Part Two

In the intro, I notice Edge is wearing the WCW U.S. title? Of all the times he won the belt, that’s the best they could come up with for an Intercontinental title show?

Your host is Jack Korpela.

On this edition, we concentrate on the 18-month long Morales/Muraco feud. Read the rest of this entry

Judgment Day 2009

Judgment Day 2009
May 17, 2009
Allstate Arena
Chicago, IL

Announcers: The teams of: Todd Grisham & Jim Ross, Josh Matthews & Matt Striker, and Michael Cole & Jerry Lawler

Benjamin/Morrison also looks like a potential show stealer, but the rest looks more like “Been there, done that”. So let’s see what we get out of Judgment Day 2009. Read the rest of this entry
