| "A fountain of mis-information" | 2009-07-12 | 3 / 5 |
| I had stopped watching wrestling around 2001 when the (then)WWF had purchased WCW and ECW. The wrestling landscape had felt flat at this point. Actually I did a similar move in the early 90's. The WWF had become too clownish around 1992 and I was no longer interested. I'd check back periodically but it wasn't until 1996 when the whole "Monday Night Wars" started sparking up when things got interesing again.
Well, I made a temporary revisit with an event called Taboo Tuesday 2004 to see how things were going in the wrestling world. All-in-all I'd have to say that there wasn't really anything "Taboo" about it. The action was ok but the storylines felt flat. Seeing retro acts such as HBK and The Nature Boy were a mixed bag.
HBK, charisma-wise, just seemed like a shell of his former self. Not enteraining at all. Slick Ric isn't too bad considering his advanced age. He hung nicely with the much younger Randy Orton. Most of the other matches were uninteresting to me. I wasn't terribly dissapionted in this event but neither was I all that thrilled either. Nothing to really draw me back to the world of Pro Wrestling. |

| I have been a wrestling fan since 1996 and have watched all kinds of wrestling. I have a wrestling DVD/VHS collection spanning over 50 all together. This is the most complete and accurate review of this DVD you will find. I hope you find this review helpful; remember to vote helpful or not helpful. (Note-Each DVD I review has a "Match of the DVD" award somewhere in it.)
WWE Taboo Tuesday 2004
Taboo Tuesday, which is now known as Cyber Sunday, was one of the most innovative PPV experiences you'll ever partake in. The fans would get to choose the matches. Taboo Tuesday was extremely unsuccessful due to it being a PPV on Tuesday night; which is why it was moved to Sunday night. This DVD isn't really all that great, but it has some decent contests on it. I don't suggest you run out and buy it though.
The show starts with Coach revealing himself as the host-like guy of the show. You quickly learn that the Divas match later on his be contested in schoolgirl clothes.
WWE Intercontinental Championship
Fans Choose the Opponent (Other choices- 14 other Raw stars)
Chris Jericho(c) VS Shelton Benjamin
This shows starts off with a bang as the upcoming Shelton Benjamin gets a shot at Jericho's belt. The match is solid and features some good near falls toward the end, but overall it could've been a lot better.
RATING- 7/10
After this match we learn that, out of Benoit, Edge, and Shawn Michael, Shawn will be taking on the World Heavyweight Champion later in the night.
Fulfill Your Fantasy Diva Battle Royal- Schoolgirl Outfits (Other choices- French Maid, Nurse)
Women's Championship
Trish Stratus(c) VS Victoria VS Molly Holly VS Jazz VS Nidia VS Gail Kim VS Stacy Keibler
This is just a big waste of time and the only thing worth checking out is King's commentary.
RATING- 2/10
Weapons Match- Chain (Other choices- Steel Chair, Lead Pipe)
Kane VS Gene Snitsky
Lita had a baby by Kane. Snitsky hit Kane in the back with a chair and he fell on Lita, costing her the baby. Tragic. This match is really slow paced, but fur some reason appeals to me a little. You won't see many innovative moves with the chain. Snitsky seems to do the same moves over and over again with it. Still, I did find the match somewhat appealing and loved the aftermath.
RATING- 6/10
Loser Gets His Head Shaved Bald (Other choices- Loser is servant or wears a dress)
Eugene VS Eric Bischoff
The match lasts around 2 minutes with Eugene picking up the victory. The aftermath is pretty funny and gives this one a few points.
RATING- 4/10
World Tag Team Championships
La Resistance(c) VS Chris Benoit & Edge
Edge and Benoit would be teaming together due to them not being picked for the Heavyweight title match. Edge isn't exactly on his game because he's upset that the fans didn't vote for him and Shawn is hurt anyway. The match is boring and the only thing worth seeing is Edge leaves the arena and Benoit still wins it.
RATING- 2/10
Lingerie Pillow Fight (Other choices- Aerobics Challenge, Evening Gown Match)
Christy Hemme VS Carmella
The take more time changing into the outfits than the pillow fight takes. Hemme looks great though.
RATING- 3/10
World Heavyweight Championship (Match of the DVD)
Triple H(c) VS Shawn Michaels
Michaels' leg is injured badly so you wouldn't expect much of a match right? Wrong, these two still put on one of the top match on the card. Michaels can barely stand and Trips is working on his leg most of the match. Michaels fights as hard as he can. Not their best match, but different and cool in it's own way.
RATING- 7.5/10
Steel Cage (Other Choices- Submission, Falls Count Anywhere)
Randy Orton VS Ric Flair
This was a solid Cage match, but I felt it was lacking a lot of good action. Most of the match consists of chops and low blows. Both men bleed a lot. There aren't too many uses of the cage itself.
RATING- 7/10 |
| Taboo Tuesday | 2007-11-09 | 3 / 5 |
| World Tag Championship
La Resistance vs. Edge & Chris Beniot.
This Match should not have been on this ppv. Eventhough it is the first ever *Fans Vote* stipulation. This match sucks...
Fulfill Your Fantasy Diva Battle Royal / Woman's Championship
Trish vs. Victoria vs. Molly vs. Jazz vs. Nidia vs. Gail Kim & Stacy Keibler. (School Girl Outfits)
Now I must say this was a great match than what I expected.. And plus we get to see School Girl Outfits... I Loved It
Christy vs. Carmella
**Waste of time** Please skip this match. You are not missing a thing... they spent 15 minutes getting dressed. Pls don't waste your time on this one.
Chris Jericho vs. Shelton Benjamin / Intercontinental Championship
This was a pure wrestling match. Chris Jericho is a great wrestler and so is Shelton Benjamin (Well at least at this time). Match gets 4 stars cause the action was nice.
Kane vs. Snitsky / Steel Chain Match
Now with snitsky's name alone you would think that this match would suck.. well it was ok. Two big men in the ring battling w/ steel chain in play was ok. This match 3 1/2 stars. The ending is worth seeing on this DVD.
Randy Orton vs. Ric Flair / Steel Cage Match
This match was by far the best match on the card. 5 stars. A young Randy Orton vs. Ric Flair. This is one of the better matches that I have seen Randy Orton in. This match went back and forth... Plus there was a great ending to this match also. Ric Flair showed that he still has *it*
Eugene vs Eric Bishoff / Head Shaved
Now the match was a waste of time, but the head shaving is one of the funniest things ever. Vince McMahon comes down and it gets krayzie.. Skip the match and watch the Head shaving.
Triple H vs Shawn Michaels / World Heavyweight Championship
This match was just like all the other matches. Now Triple H and Shawn are two of the best in the business. But this match didnt really do it for me. The excitement of this match wasnt there. If you are a wrestling fan then you know that Triple H and Shawn Michaels have faught several times and we all have our favorites.. Overall this match was a 3.5 b/c of the names. They have had better matches.
The overall DVD is ok. If you like wrestling then you can purchase this disc. You are not missing anything by not seeing the *First Ever Interactive Show* that WWE has done.

| 1st ever Taboo Tuesday
October 19, 2004
Milwaukee, Wisconsin
1) Intercontinental Championship
Chris Jericho (C) vs. Shelton Benjamin
Great opener. Very fasted paced match.
Winner: Shelton Benjamin 4/5
2) Women's Championship
Trish Stratus (C) vs. Victoria vs. Molly Holly vs. Jazz vs. Nidia vs. Stacy Keibler
Alright womens battle royal but nothing great.
Winner: Trish 2/5
3) Chain Match
Kane vs. Gene Snitsky
This was a decent match lots of action with the chain but the match never really ends but it does, Snitsky brings out a chair and breaks Kane's neck and the match stops. Good match never the less. about a solid 15 minutes of action with the chain.
Winner: Gene Snitsky 3.5/5
4) Hair Match
Eugene vs. Eric Bishoff
Personally Eugene doesn't belong in the WWE but Bishoff and Vince makes this match funny to watch towards the end.
Winner: Eugene 2/5
5) Tag Team Championship
Edge & Chris Benoit vs. La Resistance (C)
An alright tag match, Benoit makes this match watchable after Edge leaves the match about half way in but Benoit wins the belts all by himself.
Winner: Chris Benoit & Edge 3.5/5
6) Lingerie Pillow Fight
Christy Hemme vs. Carmella
The only good thing about this match is the girls in lingerie. The way they get undressed before the match is sexy too now that is what to watch in this match. The ending sucks though.
Winner: Christy 1.5/5
7) World Heavyweight Championship
Triple H (C) vs. Shawn Michaels
Great match even though HBK hurt before the match even started but like always HBK ans HHH puts a good match on when they are together. Awesome Match. Edge comes back and screws HBK.
Winner: Triple H 4/5
8) Steel Cage Match
Randy Orton vs. Ric Flair
Awesome cage match. Lots of blood. Orton does take a shot with the brass knucks at the end and thought Flair was going to win but Orton kicks out. Orton wins with the RKO. The ending is very suprising. Watch the end, it will shock the hell out of you. Not the best cage match but pretty damn good.
Winner: Randy Orton 4.5/5
