[8.0] "I think the best word to describe this rumble is "fun." It wasn't great by any means but it had enough to make it entirely watchable and even enjoyable for most of the time. The part with Jake the Snake and Lawler hiding only to have HBK find him was great. HBK coming in at 18 (i believe) was a perfect spot. There was some great foreshadowing with the Vader/Yoko spot and the ending with Diesel and HBK. People say this was one of the most unsurprising results but I was a kid when I watched it so I thought Yoko or Vader would have won. Good match."
