And man that aisleway was cluttered up with people, no wonder it took Hogan so long to get to the ring. As for the Briscos vs. Adonis/Murdoch match, it's pretty good and long as well, but I'm sure it's going to be edited down for time constraints. It came about when the Briscos beat the tag champs in a non-title match a few weeks prior on TV to get the shot.

Just popping in to ask one main question:
Did Gorilla just call Gerry Brisco a "youngster"?

I was just waiting for them to insert the word EXTREME after every sentence. "Batista and Edge go....EXTREME!" "This Sunday at 8:00, 7:00...EXTREME standard time!" "Only on pay-per...EXTREME!"
