[1986-03-14-Houston Wrestling] Ted DiBiase & Steve Williams vs Dick Murdoch & Masked Superstar

[shoe]

This was a pretty damn good match. We get some back and forth early on. Both teams trying to get the advantage. The big moment was when Ted takes a chair right on the noggin. This was wicked and busts him open something fierce. The heels just get the heat on him by working over the cut. Just wrestling 101 stuff. Ted hot tags to Doc and he's just murdering the heels. They cut him off and work him over a good bit. The crowd gets pretty hot for this. We get a pretty hot finish. Then a fun post match brawl where the faces want the mask and they get it!!!! 4*

Was this match on the Mid-South set? Or is it new?

This feels new.

Good tag match, snug enough for the delight of the Houston crowd. It was the DiBiase show, as he played a long babyface in perils segments and bled buckets, while I felt like Superstar wasn't on his best day and kind of damaged Murdoch, who had to play by his partner's pace instead of raising the bar. Of course, Doc got a heated hot tag and got to look good. Hot finish, it was funny to see the fans cheering for the black glove this time around
