[1984-02-24-Houston Wrestling] Jose Lothario & Buddy Moreno vs Black Gordman & Gran Goliath

[shoe]

Gordman and Goliath are a very famous team in Texas and California. They were the Eddie Guerrero and Art Barr of their time. They were qreat at generating heat, and even in the twilight of their career they could still get it.

 

 

This was really well done. The structure almost feels more modern in the many momentum shifts. We start out with a nice 5 minute shine. The heels start to get heat for 3 minutes, then we'd see a shine for 3 minutes etc. So we get this back and forth action. The difference here the crowd isn't educated to that structure. So everytime the faces got the shine the crowd would go crazy, and vice versa on the heat. Thy weren't use to that and treated each one as a cut off and hot tag. The finish was a lot of fun too. I dug all the shines, and when the heels were working over Lothario's legs it was top notch work. 3 1/2*
