WWF Intercontinental Champion Razor Ramon vs Tatanka - WWF RAW 9/26/94

The trio of WWF Midcard acts I have avoiding are Crush, Savio Vega and Tatanka. I have legitimately watched enough Crush to know I don’t care for him. There’s something about Vega and Tatanka that’s so lame it is off-putting just seeing their name on the screen. I out of my big boy pants to watch to say I’ve seen every 1994 IC Title from TV. Probably the 3rd biggest match of Tatanka career besides the WrestleMania IX and the Luger RAW match. A strange matchup as Tatanka was feuding with Luger and Razor was still in Shawn/Diesel orbit.

I have said before Razor is the King of 3 star match I mean that as a compliment because he has sold, good to very matches. He is reliable to be always be good. Hall/Razor stock has really risen with me. He went from someone I just liked because he was a childhood favorite to someone respect as someone as the best to ever do it. They being said this was probably his most boring match. Between this and Luger match, Tatanka is as boring and as basic as I expected him to be. There was really no structure to the match. Razor was nominally upending Tatanka and besting him at every turn. It was the usual good punches and some arm work. Tatanka was throwing chops and elbows. It was so basic. The transition to heat was a Tatanka snapping Razor throat across the rope. The climax was an abdominal stretch. The near fall was a body slam. This was like so lame. Razor came back hit his super back suplex but he gets distracted by Ted DiBiase. Luger comes to help. Bigelow attacks him to set up their match in 2 weeks. Melee ensure. Tatanka gets counted out. Nothing to see here. Keep it moving.
