[1977-02-11-Houston Wrestling] Dusty Rhodes vs Tank Patton

[shoe]

I thought this was a well worked matched. Dusty was pretty spry here. In the 1st fall I enjoyed Patton's arm work. He also incorporated a hair pull to control Dusty. All the work in the 1st fall was really smartly done. Dusty hits a beautiful cross body for the 1st fall.

 

The 2nd fall was entertaining as well. Patton using stomps. Great looking punches to the eye. It looked like he was trying to bust Dusty up hard way. He's smashing Dusty's head onto the table by the ring. Then they have this beautiful punch exchange. Overall really smart match. 2 1/2*

A solid match, both workers were great, the highlight of the match was Dusty's crossbody, overall an interesting match. A short 2/3 falls match in the Sam Houston Coliseum.
