I've found Vinny's return to be hit-or-miss in terms of my interest. I still like the guy, but I haven't been as compelled to buy as I thought I'd be. Here, he's still the hot meathead, muscles bulging and looking good in a pair of USA trunks. He's arrogant about facing the smaller stud, but why wouldn't he be?
Big vs. Small |
Scrappy is back and looking good in blue trunks. They're a little loose on him, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. He flexes right along Vinny, showing off his hot muscle. In an odd storyline, he won't tell Vinny his name. I'm not sure if it hadn't been chosen yet or he was just being a punk, but either way, it gets under Vinny's skin.
The dynamic of David vs. Goliath is clear. Facing down giant Vinny, the rookie adds an inch to his height compared to what he told Frey, but being 5'7" instead of 5'6" isn't going to make much difference. With the short run time, there aren't a ton of moves, but it all moves fairly quickly. You might want to watch this in conjunction with another video.

Scrappy looks so good |
The ending is odd and abrupt. They set up this whole name angle, but there's no real payoff to it. The match just kind of ends with a reversal then one move that doesn't normally put a guy down. It felt like it could've easily kept going.

What are other bloggers saying?
So that's my take. What's yours?
