    Mat Work

    dawho5 replied to Tim Cooke's topic in Pro Wrestling

    El Dandy vs. Angel Azteca 6/1/90 was an amazing lucha matwork match as well.

    I didn't care for Pillman ignoring Sid either. I didn't think it was anywhere close to necessary to go all homophobic either. He cut a really strong, fired up promo without it and all that stuff does is distract from what he was out there to talk about.

    As juniors matches go, this is one of the better ones I've seen. That finish was just all sorts of brutal.

    Good, bloody brawl with little else to it. I almost think they are on the right track for a barbed wire match. Pretending it is anything but trying to avoid the wire and send your opponent into it seems like you're not using the stip. It's not pretty or anything that's going to win awards for great wrestling psychology, but it just fits.

    Invader 1 practically begging Chicky Starr to tag in is incredible. The heat on 3 was damn good, Invader 1's hot tag was definitely great. The ending, less that brain buster lifting DDT, was meh. I also really liked Invader 3's reversal second rope splash. Most of the time when guys do that it takes so long it looks bad, but this one was really well done.

    Embry was gold here. Crusher was good enough as a big man, wasn't buying the RPMs that much.

    I loved that old lady in the crowd giving Embry the death stare and kicking at him. Great brawl, both guys sell the beating they get as well as dish it out. Also, lots of blood.

    WWC should be on there now.

    That ref went the extra mile this match. Taking the fork from Abby after a ridiculously long struggle. Then that absurd looking bump to the floor. Only to be back up quicker than most refs after a wrestler merely runs into them. Great strike exchanges throughout and I love this matchup.

    I thought Miller's blade job was pretty good given the circumstances. I dug both the heel in peril and face in peril sections. That flag shot looked brutal post-match.

    Great match with Embry being the sleaziest stalling heel you ever saw. That bullet tope by Invader 3 was awesome! I do wish they'd shown us how Embry got cut.

    Hugo's commentary is over the house mic. Invader 1 with some great selling even when he's on offense. I will second the love for the Chicky's Sport Shop set. So well done.

    Man, Heenan selling the title rematch to Hart and rigging it in the end against the guys who beat his team is such a freaking Heenan thing to do. Great stuff. The 'tastics vs. Sheepherders is a match I would go back in time and pay to see anywhere.

    SNME was really good. I liked the intro a lot, seemed like a very SNME way of doing things. Your tag team division is so freaking big right now. The Hart Foundation stuff is good, will they or won't they stay with Jimmy? Hogan vs. Money Inc. looks like a great feud. I agree that everyone would expect OMG to lose to Hogan. But he's fodder, a good way to extend things out on the way to the eventual DiBiase match.

    This BR stuff is starting to get the Sensationals in a lot of trouble. Is Sherri really helping them at this point or are they better without her? I like how the Creatchman family is the target of so many people. Luckily the guy has a big brain on him! jacques and Black Bart is definitely heating up both promotions.

    Mike taking even Jimmy Garvin to a 10 minute draw stretches the limits of beleivability. But it IS Texas after all and he is a von Erich. A 20 minute (almost) main with the two Bam Bams would have been incredible on free TV in 85.
  17. dawho5
    A little much on the Jimmy Garvin for my tastes, but it all seems very Texas to me. The von Erichs getting the best of things every time was still a huge deal at this point, so that is pretty spot on as well.

    Lex really channels his anger here, good stuff.

    Flair tries to make this match important to the American fans. It's just too tough of a sell.
  20. dawho5
    Embry and Eddie rip it up on the mic AND in a chain match? Sign me up right now! This stuff is absolute gold all the way through and I thought Eddie's interview was the highlight. Make him bleed, damnit, he doesn't care!

    I have no love for Jeff, but I don't at all disagree he has been the most consistent bright spot of the 16 months I've seen. Robert Fuller always brings something worthwhile, so I'm glad to see him.

    Sherri is probably manager of both years for me so far. Ted working a squash is something I don't get tired of. He's got some really crisp technical stuff that often takes a backseat to his character work in big matches. I like how he mixes in the cockiness during the squashes as well, just enough to make you remember he is the Million Dollar Man. Piper boycotting the match is good also.
  23. dawho5
    Good enough match, but Fuller's fired-up promo is the highlight here. Feeling sorry for Pritchard after watching that.
  24. dawho5
    Good match between the two that could have been better. Some big miscommunications early on which led to what Loss mentioned. They did get it right in the end, but 4/6 was better.

    I honestly thought this killed the Parlor. Piper no-sells the fear the segment is supposed to carry and makes into a weird looking Piper's Pit episode.
