Ok, just turned on Royal Rumble 91.  While I’m quite familiar with Wrestlemania 7(91) as my childhood friend had it on tape and we watched it often, I don’t remember watching this Rumble, which at this point is AWESOME to find a major PPV from “my” era that I’ve never seen...

So the PPV starts by instantly going into the national anthem...numerous close ups of kids with bowl cuts(Vince... What???) , numerous closeups of American flags(ok, its the national anthem but, cmon this is a little extra but...what??...oh yeah)...Desert Storm had just started.

Wow.  This is like some national artifact for war and ‘Merica! propoganda. Crazy seeing this through adult eyes.  All setting up for that sudden turncoat Iraqi sympathizer Sgt. Slaughter to win the title(Good Lord), only for that American hero Hulk Hogan to win the title back from him at Mania)Double Good Lord).  Even as a young child, I really didn’t give a crap about all that.

Holy crap with the bowl cut closeups though.  Was it supposed to be more “touching” because they were kids?  Wow.  Brutal start.  All I was hoping for was a good friggin Mr. Perfect match and Hart Foundation match.  Can I get that?
