Loss Posted September 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2013 Short, but this is a HOT match with great action and tons of crowd heat. Eddy really has his act down at this point and you get the feeling these two could produce a MOTY (on a global level) on PPV at this point, given the right time and booking focus. This should have been a U.S. title feud. Check out how into these two the crowd is. Love the finish too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Ridge Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 Really nice reversal sequence between the two with Eddy getting the advantage. Surprised with the quickness of the finish as Guerrero wins clean with the frog splash. Hot match but it left me wanting more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soup23 Posted May 18, 2014 Report Share Posted May 18, 2014 Really action packed match that made Eddy look really good going into Havoc. They had the crowd going nuts and I loved Eddy making Mickey Jay count the fall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-P Posted September 13, 2014 Report Share Posted September 13, 2014 What's there is great, but it's typically the Nitro format which gets frustrating. The clean win kinda came from nowhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superstar Sleeze Posted March 14, 2015 Report Share Posted March 14, 2015 WCW Crusierweight Champion Eddie Guerrero vs Chris Benoit - WCW Nitro 10/20/97 Awesome sprint! The crowd hated Eddie so much and Benoit is the asskicker a crowd wants to get behind to serve Eddie his just desserts. I love Eddie avoiding the chop early. He goes flying up in the air a couple times but Goddamnit I am not taking that chop. When he does, what a great sell job with him digging his nails into the mat as Benoit drags him back in. Benoit just chops the fuck out of him to the pleasure of the audience. These two execution is just breath-taking. They are both so quick and crisp. It is incredible. Benoit's suicide dive was crazy. The way Benoit sprint across the ring and Eddie hit the drop toehold into the middle turnbuckle was a great, creative finish to give a heel a clean, but still underhanded finish. I loved Eddie hitting the Frogsplash for good measure and Mickey Jay not being happy with him "running up the score" so to speak on the unconscious Benoit. I wish they got a long match on PPV at this point both at peaks of their wrestling game. ***1/2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted February 29, 2016 Report Share Posted February 29, 2016 I liked this more for the atmosphere and the crowd heat than the work--the work was fine, definitely, but there have been way better matches even in a TV setting between these two. The finish is appropriately dickish behavior from Eddie as he picks up a huge win heading into Havoc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
