[1982-02-26-Houston Wrestling] Ivan the Terrible vs Tiger Conway Jr

[shoe]

A little back and forth early.Nice armdrags by Tiger.Ivan roughing up Tiger in the corner. Ivan's size is just too much for Tiger. Ivan goes with a nerve hold and transitions into an arm bar. This isn't a barn burner of a match, but they are telling a pretty basic story. I loved Tiger's hope spot of running the rope. More control by Ivan. Tiger gets the match vertical and uses his boxing for a bit only again to get cut off. Tiger gets one last run and climbs the top rope and hits a missile 2 12*

 

This was a basic match, but I thought Tiger's selling was done real well. You got behind him on his hope spots. The match was worked in a way that the loser didn't get hurt.
