That's also my favourite Martel match ever, and the only thing keping it away from the full five, for me, is the stupid finish. Everything else is just perfect pro wrestling. Other Bockwinkel matches are excellent too, they had awesome chemistry and it should be reminded as one of the best in ring sagas ever.

Re-assessing people like Martel is one of the facets of this project I love the most. Arrogance spraying heel Martel was a fixture of my childhood and based on that run I wouldn't have considered him whatsoever. The pre-Model Martel on the other hand is one of the best wrestlers of the mid-80s. A fairly basic style done really well, he's brilliant at getting over the dynamics of the match. Really appreciate that he doesn't seem to rely on routine spots too much. His matches feel organic.
