Well, since I was talking about Flashbacks this weekend, might as well do another one.
As a note, I write this directly in the blog editor, so I’ve never had a copy of them saved on my computer…UNTIL NOW! Yes, thanks to blogbooker.com, I was able to create archived versions of every Flashback from 2016 until today, and they are now available as a part of the rant archives in very large Word documents.

OK, that’s enough cheap plugging.
Tonight! The NBA playoffs continue, as do the NHL ones. The Jays were rained out for a second straight day in Cleveland.
Not a lot going on in the wrestling world. Apparently all the Rusev stuff is some kind of bizarre Twitter angle, so whatever.
Vader underwent open heart surgery and he’s out of the hospital and rehabbing now, so best of luck to him.
(Working on another Observer Flashback today. Here’s more RAW to tide you over until then.)
The SmarK Rant for Monday Night RAW – 08.01.94
Live from Youngstown, OH, on a college campus that at least looks respectable on TV.
The Jays were rained out in Cleveland, but there’s NHL and NBA playoffs.
Andre week is finally over, so it’s back to other Network content again . Maybe an Observer, we’ll see where the weekend takes us.
Talk about the stuff here!
The Coliseum Video Rant – Andre The Giant
(Just to REALLY finish off the Andre run, here’s a repost of the 2013 Coliseum Video rant of Andre the Giant)
I’ve decided that I kinda like the single-show format for these, so that’s what I’m gonna go with from now on. Saves me having to come up with goofy subtitles, too.
I think the point of this tape is pretty self-evident.
The SmarK Rant for WWE Network Collections – Andre the Giant (part 4)
Who’s sick of these yet? Well, now we’re really getting into the bottom of the barrel for Andre’s career, sadly. Let’s put on a pot of coffee and wrap this one up.

Rolling on as we get into the Hulkamania era and Andre’s body really starts to fall apart…

OK, the Observer with the WM review is out, and here’s the ratings…
The feedback on the show is VERY split, running about 1/3 each way thumbs up, down and in the middle.
Also, Dave reviewed NXT Takeover, and actually gave out TWO full ***** ratings on the same show, for the opening ladder match and of course Gargano v. Ciampa, with Black v. Almas getting a mere ****1/4. DAMN.

The SmarK Rant for WWE Network Collection: ANDRE THE GIANT (Part 1)
Well, in honor of the HBO doc tonight (or last night, I guess), this seems like an appropriate time to review this set of matches on the Network. It’s under “Shows” and then “Collections” in case you’d like to watch it, by the way.

Sorry! Late getting this up. Paige is the new GM and apparently Daniel Bryan v. AJ Styles is the main event. Well OK then .
Talk about it here!
