Undertaker vs Goldust - WWF International Incident

Weird to go from a Casket Match to a regular match. Not much to this one but at 12 minutes it didnt drag as much as there wasn’t much meat on the bone. Goldust played it more like he normally does cowering behind the ref and the taunts. Taker took two losses in a row to Goldust and Mankind. This was Deadman Walking Tall. Taking no shit. Chokeslam on steps could have been cool but it was more tepid than what we are used to nowadays as Goldust took it on the ass. I liked Marlena throwing her body on Goldust to protect him from the steel steps. Rings were so much noisier in 1996 makes for a better presentation. To be honest I don’t think much happened until Goldust rammed Takers back into the exposed turnbuckle and rammed steps on his back. Goldust had no qualms. Goldust didnt really get to build any heat from there. Taker made a short comeback and nailed the Tombstone when MANKIND erupted from the Ring and sucked the Undertaker to HELL! Goldust wins by DQ But Taker rips the ring from the other side and sends Mankind packing. This is the Apex of the Goldust-Mankind alliance that I wish went on way longer as there were so many cool possibilities with them, step down from Beware of Dog but not horrible more of a backdrop for Mankind angle.
