[1995-09-07-WCW-Main Event] Eddie Guerrero vs Jushin Liger

[cactus]

You can find this match under Hidden Gems on the Network. 

They open the match by trading holds at a lightning pace. We see arm wrenches and snapmares before Liger locks in his Mexican Surfboard, which causes the crowd to gasp. Eddie gets out, and they work some crisp and quick cruiserweight exchanges. Liger gets the better of Eddie after he lands a sloppy Koppu kick that sends Eddie to the outside as the show goes to commercial. Eddie is in control as the show comes back, and he works down Liger's leg. Liger lands a few nearfalls after escaping a Gory Stretch. Liger's comeback is put on ice when Eddie lands a Brainbuster and hits the Frog Splash. The finish felt like it came out of nowhere. The crowd are sitting on their hands throughout the entirety of this match, but this was presented as a thrown-together match on their C-show, so the lack of reaction should come as no surprise. If you go into this expecting a ★★★★+ hidden gem between two of the best ever, you are going to be very disappointed. Everything we saw here was at least decent, but you could tell they were holding back slightly. ★★¾
