Anyway, I'm going to use these names in this review because I can. And probably in any related review for them as a tag team. The names play off Gorilla’s big (for UCW) muscles and Golden Boy’s special place in the promotion, but I also think they're sexier and more fun. But what about Gorilla/Golden Boy vs. Chase/Miles? Is it sexy and fun?
It's a classic face vs. heel tag match. |
Now, there's a ref again in another tag match. This time, however, I know EXACTLY why Ref Trevor is there. Neither ineffectual nor incompetent, Ref Trevor is actually the perfect ref for UCW. Strutting around with his striped shirt open and a sneer on his face, he's a tattooed roughneck who's pure bad boy. Yeah, this is a guy who belongs in the new UCW ring. And so, I love having a ref in the ring this time.
Miles: "Your partner's going to sleep. I'm having fun!" |
Uh, Golden Boy? Why are you reaching for a tag when Chase has your boy Gorilla all wrapped up? |
Everyone gets in the action, but my images are a little biased towards Gorilla's suffering. |
Gorilla tries to get things under control. |
It's the law of the ring: heels must go low on big-bulged babyfaces or be kicked out of the union. |
Chase goes for extra credit by taking out Golden Boy, too. |
The guys talk the whole time. I don't remember a quiet moment and sometimes they're all talking over one another. Miles is especially good at talking, probably doing most of it. He's a compelling cheerleader for Chase, taunter of the good guys, narrator of the action and traffic cop for the ref. It's a lot of fun, feeling smooth and natural. I've suffered through some bad banter recently (e.g., Cap (vs. Blayne) + Vinny (vs. Cason) at Thunders), so this was refreshing.
Yeah, that's more than a five-count, but the ref is "distracted" again. |
Golden Boy, whining to the ref: "I know they paid you!" Ref Trevor, mocking him: "Maybe I paid them." |
What are other bloggers saying?
So that's my take. What's yours?
