[1978-08-18-AJPW] Mil Mascaras vs The Destroyer

[superkix]

Solid matwork throughout the first fall with good pacing and some neat counters and reversals from Máscaras. They kept it moving without much downtime until Destroyer uses a...uh, powerbomb pin to take the first fall. Second fall picks up where the first left off, with Mil focusing more of his efforts on Destroyer's arm and Destroyer going after the leg. More struggle here, less finesse. Mil picks up steam with a couple of flying cross chops and submits Destroyer with the standing deathlock/double underhook hold. The third fall was pretty good with Mil stretching Destroyer on the mat and Destroyer takes advantage of Mil aggravating his knee off the atomic drop. Mil survives the figure-four and goes on to pin Destroyer with a top rope crossbody. Pretty good effort from both men and a fun watch but nowhere near their 1974 match.
