Superstar Sleeze Posted January 5 Report Share Posted January 5 Bruno Sammartino vs Superstar Graham - WWF MSG 10/23/78 The epilogue to their famous 76-77 feud. Backlund is champion, Bruno has been absent from MSG for half a year, Graham has been doing jobs on his way out to Dusty & Backlund. Bruno and Superstar bring out the best in each other. Not their best match together but they stick to the formula and it’s fun. Their specific formula is taste of your own medicine. Graham applies a hold, Bruno reverses and applies the same hold. Graham does some quick headlock punches so Bruno returns the favor. Graham does a poor head arm triangle, Bruno says fuck that…reverse waist lock and full Nelson instead. Bruno charges and slams his knee into the buckles. Graham does leg work so you guessed it Bruno retaliates with just that. Their bread & butter is the test of strength and Bearhug exchange. The Bearhug exchange gets the biggest pop and harkens back to yesteryear and I loved it! Bruno slams Superstar’s head into the exposed turnbuckle drawing blood. He tees off on the cut. He doesn’t want a pin he wants to KO Superstar but the ref calls the match and Bruno gets a measure of revenge on his archrival. They have better matches together but this is still fun. ***1/2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
