redfiona99Last night I watch the Harris v Storm Texas Deathmatch dealie. There shall be more details further on but really, I'm just all 'you made a match, all for me' :D.
Really, can I just start with when Chris Harris enters and he's wearing an AMW shirt and he just tears it off, in half, right down the line and I'm all eeee! already. I would maybe have prefered it if the choking spot right afterwards had been done with that rather than the handcuffs but that's me being silly.
Then there's the way they could have gone really over the top with the violence, but they didn't. It was really restrained, but it meant that everything looked so much worse. I mean, for goodness sakes, they managed to make the tinfoil trash can look like a viable weapon again.
And I love how they made some of the spots look. For instance, when Storm gets catapulted into the table, his arms are covering his face, but they made it look like that was just how he landed under the table.
And the dive that Harris took off the top, he looked like he was damn well gliding. Did that security guard know he was going to be hit?!
The pounce through the ropes was well done too because we could see Harris coming round but obviously Storm couldn't and whump! Seriously cool spot.
I also love that there was 5 months of build-up. That is how you keep people interested. Sorry, I will hereby admit to preferring slow burns to quick cuts.
I really love that Gail dragged Jackie out, even if I think I was hearing things when I thought I heard Gail shout 'come on, Chris' as she was dragging her away.
I love that it did look like they were out on their feet and that they had to use the ropes and tables and any and everything else just to keep themselves standing. The amount of blood was just this side of ridiculous and it just worked.
And, of course, it had to end with a beer bottle.
J'taime AMW.
