corwo Posted December 3, 2023 Report Share Posted December 3, 2023 I didn't love them opening with a strike exchange, as they're largely played out. But it's Mark Briscoe vs. Rush. You're not exactly coming into this match expecting a scientific lock up. Besides, that can be forgiven when two people hit each other as hard as Rush and Briscoe were here. Everything looked snug and impactful, with both competitors hitting blistering chops. Their chests were beet-red, and both looked like they had gone through a war by the end. It's a minor quibble, but Rush and Briscoe both popped up from some moves too quickly. But again, it's an action-packed eleven minute TV match, so it's hard to complain about. It'd be different if they were shrugging off big bombs twenty minutes into the bout. Briscoe bumped his butt off for Rush, taking an overhead suplex to the floor. Plus, the headbutt Rush cracked Briscoe with before hitting the Bull's Horns made a sickening sound, in a good way. This wasn't without its issues, but sometimes a match just whips. *** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
