This was fantastic, no pun intended. There were a couple of blown spots, most notably Kikuchi slipping off the top rope when he was about to slingshot into the ring, but it really doesn't impact much because they recover from it so quickly. All four guys put forth a great effort, and they are doing stuff more high-tech than anything else I've seen in 1990. The flapjack with Kikuchi landing squarely on his head looks absolutely brutal, and the early matwork is better than most stuff you see from All Japan. Quite the incredible spotfest. -
That is going on. I should close this, as the set is done and will be released very soon.

This is for yearbook intents and purposes the blowoff to this feud, although it continued on house shows after the group lost television and I think there are a couple of additional TV segments to follow. Jeanne eats the pin, Toni rips her hair out while she's handcuffed to the ring ropes, Austin gets thrown all over the cage, Pringle is in the penalty box with Chris Von Erich getting his hands on him. Great stuff! An excellent feel good ending to the feud.
