[1995-09-17-WCW-Fall Brawl] Harlem Heat vs Bunkhouse Buck & Dick Slater

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

Last few minutes. More heat than I'd expect for heel vs heel. Sherri and Parker share one of the most exaggerated kisses in history. Harlem Heat win the tag titles.

Last time I watch this I found it was a pretty awful match. Buck & Slater could have good matches, but not against a shitty team like Harlem Heat.

[FLIK]

I always thought Heat were really good.

 

Don't remember much about this match but I recall them having some good tv matches w Buck & Slater.

 

Is much else from the Parker/Sherri romance covered on this set?

I remember getting a big kick out of the angle at the time.

I thought most of the Sherri/Parker stuff was in 96? I'm not a big fan of the Buck/Slater tag team. Nasty Boys run in while the camera is in a long shot.

[El-P]

Yep, what a awful, boring match with a hundred resthods and sloppy work. Sherri's boots and legs are the only things worthwhile here.

Back to the discs as opposed to the Network. I remember from watching this show live that this match felt about 9 years long. We join in with Stevie Ray working possibly the lamest house-afire sequence in the history of tag wrestling. Parker and Sherri practically consummate their relationship in Ring 2, while the Nasty Boys--for some reason--interfere and cost Buck & Slater the tag belts. Sherri is definitely an upgrade over Miss Sylvia.

Seemingly every wrestling fan from this era have fond memories of Harlem Heat, being a little younger, I never really got the big deal. It must be the entrance music. No memorable matches, feuds, angles or promos (besides Hogan, we comin for you...) leaves me scratching my head. It must be the entrance music. This match affirmed all my feelings regarding Harlem Heat. By far, the worst match I have watched in some time. It just dragged and dragged. I was actually pretty excited for it because I like Buck and Slater and was hoping them to carry Harlem Heat to a good match. It was kick-punch-hold forever. I couldn't figure out who the fuck was the babyface or heel. Turns out they were both heel, but the four of them were the lamest heels ever. Parker and Sherri become so bored they literally say Fuck It and go to town on each other. The Nasties apparently hate the hicks from the sticks more than the brothers from the hood. It is weird because you know it is going to start a Nasties/Harlem Heat program not a Stud Stable/Nasties program so why wouldn't the Nasties attack the new champs rather than helping them. Are the Nasties faces? I love what WCW is doing the main event scene at this point, but the undercard blows except for DDP, he is a hero to millions and a role model for the Free World.
