[1985-11-07-WWF-The Wrestling Classic] Davey Boy Smith vs Ricky Steamboat

[cactus]

You are probably not going to find a more workrate pairing than this in WWF in 1985. They work a fast exchange, before Smith overpowers Steamboat and controls the match with a front facelock. Steamboat counters out of a Smith suplex by using the momentum to hoist Bulldog in the air for an impressive stalling suplex of his own. Just when things are starting to pick up, Smith crotches himself on the ropes after a failed dropkick attempt and the referee decides to award this one to Steamboat. Utterly shit finish, these guys could of made something really special if they were just given five more minutes.
