Microstatistics Posted June 1, 2016 Report Share Posted June 1, 2016 Great character work based match. Fiery babyface vs. cheating heel. The finish was a bit sudden but was a nice twist and well executed. **** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetlag Posted January 27, 2019 Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 Bread and butter Mick McManus stuff. Brawling and cheapshots galor. I liked the part where they got the ref in an armlock. Sarjeants forte is technical wizardry and while he doesn't bloom in this type of match he looks good here, pulling out lots of different headlocks to work McManus' cauliflowered ears etc. I also really liked these short knees that he threw. Crowd got really into this when Sarjeant started working Micks arm like he was gonna rip it off. Good stuff but the somewhat throwaway finish prevents this from reaching the upper tier.

Clayton Jones Posted June 28, 2023 Report Share Posted June 28, 2023 I thought the borderline styles clash between these two made this match all that much better. I really liked seeing how they compensated for each other's styles, and it brought out some great stuff from both. McManus' cheap shot tactics are always entertaining but there was something about the way it countered Sargeant's technical style that I especially loved. Conversely Sargeant brought a fire to this I really enjoyed seeing from him, and the balance between his technical work and getting in his own little cheap shots on McManus was really entertaining. Finish was abrupt but it was also a nice change of pace after seeing the tempo predictably ramp up for so many British finishing stretches in this time period.
