[1995-10-02-WWF-Raw] 1-2-3 Kid vs Razor Ramon


Loss

Kid is on fire early, as consistent with the storyline, he's out to prove himself. Is there ever a match these two have had where Kid hasn't jumped into the fallaway slam position for Razor though? Anyway, they quickly show Dean Douglas at ringside taking notes.

 

Short match with Razor making quick work of Kid, but Kid won't accept the loss, slapping Razor after the match and goading Razor into more. The match slowly continues getting more aggressive, with Kid slapping Razor in the face as he continues coming back no matter what Razor throws at him. Razor finally gets a second win and Kid still insists on continuing, so they have a THIRD match. Kid *still* keeps coming back no matter what Razor throws at him. Razor is about to give him the Razor's Edge, but Kid can barely stand, so he shows mercy and just inside cradles him instead and wins again. (Note to Jericho: Scott Hall obviously knew the move!)

 

At the end, Kid teases shaking Razor's hand, then tries to schoolboy him for a quick pin, but Razor kicks out. Kid ends up turning his back to Razor and dares him to give him a Razor's Edge, but still can't really stand long enough to make his point. Finally, he offers a handshake, they hug it out and that's that. But there's obviously more coming, because even the nature of Razor's hug, noogie and all, is a little patronizing. This was a good series of mini-matches, but more than that, a GREAT, FANTASTIC, AWESOME story that should be talked about way, way, way, way more.

Weird to watch this right after watching Sami Zayn vs. Adrian Neville from the last NXT show, as the stories and even the finish were sort of similar. I always thought the constant restarts were pretty nonsensical--since when can a wrestler have a match continue after he loses just because he asks? But Kid takes some requisite loony bumps and all the finishes are really good. Pity the best one--Kid trying a somersault off the top and Razor catching him with a power bomb(!)--was during the commercial break.
