Loss Posted December 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2010 Up until now, this is the best TV match these guys have had, as both work hard and give a good performance. Great heat as well. Post-match, Brutus Beefcake re-runs yet another not-the-Barber gimmick, this time as The Booty Man. Funny to hear Hogan calling him the Bootybootybooty man.

shoe Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Another good bout between the 2. Flair's elbow smashes to Savage look really nasty. Great sell job from Savage. Arn's DDT was pretty great as well. Post match we get The Booty Man. Hogan gives us an overkill sell job for Booty Man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Evans Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 I would've called this a great match but the finish hurt it. I'm guessing Hogan missed his cue cause Sullivan ran around the ring twice for what looked like no reason. Savage was outstanding in the match and so was flair when he sang "I've got the whole world in my hands". The post match promo with Savage going after Bischoff was great.

Kevin Ridge Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 Flair has been looking so confident in the ring. Him and Savage have another good match with Flair hitting some hard shots. I couldn't tell what Sullivan was doing at the end running around. I thought he was just trying to steal the shoe for himself before Hogan got in his way. Booty Man joins up with Hogan/Savage so I guess him being on the wrong side of Hogan for almost a year and a half is forgotten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenjo Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 Booty Man joins up with Hogan/Savage so I guess him being on the wrong side of Hogan for almost a year and a half is forgotten. After a year and a half of sucking dick it's now time for the Booty Man to kiss some ass. WCW gave Beefcake the variety he never used to have.

El-P Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Yep, this is the best TV match these two had thus far. Savage's selling and bumping was terrific here and really made Flair look great. The ending looks like a clusterfuck though, someone missed his cue. And of course, the Bootybooty Man, yet another embarrassing Hogan brainfart to give his bags handler some undeserved TV time. A mix between the old Beefcake and the Ultimate Warrior actually.

PeteF3 Posted January 4, 2015 Report Share Posted January 4, 2015 I actually liked the Christmas match between these two the best as far as TV bouts go, but this was pretty good and like that match is a bit more meat-and-potatoes rather than a sprint designed to keep eyeballs from flipping to Raw. More satisfying ending too, even if the timing is a bit off. The post-match is underwhelming with the debut of the BOOTYBOOTYBOOTYMAN, with the announcers pretending to not have any idea who it is and the gimmick being another excuse for Beefcake to desperately and shamelessly mug to the crowd.

soup23 Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 Yeah, I thought this was good and the best tv match of 1996 but I don't have it that much above the Caesars title change. I did like the psychology in this one but the Booty Man finish really takes it down in my eyes. *** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim Posted October 11, 2017 Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 I love the story of Flair spending Savage's alimony money. What a heel! Pretty good match, I think I liked their earlier Nitro match better. THE BOOTYMAN! I love that he's not introduced, Hogan just starts referring to him as the Booty Man constantly on promo.

soup23 Posted February 10, 2020 Report Share Posted February 10, 2020 Rewatched this today and liked it much more. The cutoffs and storytelling was spot on. Booty Man is still stupid but the can’t bring this down too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKWebb Posted May 22, 2020 Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 I loved this. I loved the trading jabs and chops towards the end of the match, and the finish didn't bother me. Arn's DDT ruled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawho5 Posted November 14 Report Share Posted November 14 This was a great TV match for sure. I am with whoever said the finish hurt it, but a lot of the offense in this was crisp and well-executed. Plus that DDT by Arn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
