Bobo is in his mid-50s and feels every second of it by this point. Stasiak is a few months from turning 40, but he feels just as washed-up and ancient as Bobo here. Stasiak goes for the heart punch early, but Bobo fights back and we get a lot of bad brawling here. They fight on the apron, and Bobo punches Stasiak back into the ring. Stasiak fights Bobo when he is in the corner and refuses to let Bobo out so the referee calls for the DQ. Shit finish, shit match. DUD

[Mr JMML]

A really sloppy WWWF brawl between two wrestlers that are way past their prime. The finish doesn't help either.

[El McKell]

Bobo Brazil is clearly way over the hill here, his execution of basic stuff like pushing out of a headlock looks awful. I think Stasiak bumping over the top rope back into the ring from a headbutt on the apron looked totally unbelievable. Worst match from a bad MSG show. dud
