Gino Hernandez vs Ox Baker OX is most remembered from Escape From New York. Always a character people remembered. The match told a story , but lacked excitement.

Spoiler/Lewin vs Lothario/Gomez This is the 3rd fall of a match that goes 45 minutes.The 3rd fall goes around 16minutes. I really hope the rest of it shows up. If not that's life. I will say the 3rd fall was great. I thought Lewin/Spoiler complimented each other well. Again we get a great Lothario performance. We get to see him run the gauntlet. We see him play FIP. He gets a chance to get a hot tag and throw some great punches. He shows great psychology. The heels were good at getting heat. Spoiler shined the babyface pretty good here.

The more I think of Liger, the more I realize I love him just as much as when I 1st saw him in 92. The guy who got me into tape trading. He was the guy who hooked me as a fan. He was such a state of the art worker at the time. Steve Austin said it best last year. Jushin Fucking Liger is still wrestling. Not just wrestling, but having good matches still.

Bruce you have got to steal the JJ Dillon spit the cigar spot 20ft in the air spot that he did in the Patera/Spoiler match. That was so great.

No problem. I thought it be easier at the end of the year to have my thoughts in one place.

Do we get a detailed breakdown of Biglav for the slackers who are too busy to read Parv's long thread?

Yes, I have it in my collection. It's a studio match from Australia. I've seen it on WWF tv, and they showed it on Wrestling At the Chase from St. Louis.

It's 12/19/77 That's the listing I got from WWF tv.

The main event from this weeks show is worth checking out.

This is a match that was sent to all the territorities back in the day. They would air it prior to Harley coming in and working the top guys as NWA champ.

This was pretty good. The story of the match was interesting though the layout of the match made Conway Jr. look like a patsy quite a bit. Lothario would sell and play FIP then get the hot tag to Conway Jr. Only to get cut off. Gino was pretty great. I got the Flair vibe off him too. Matt is right I will spoil it . Tiger does a big time Tope'. I was shocked. The crowd bought into the story. 3*

3/9/16 LU Mil Muertes vs Prince Puma vs Pentagon Jr. 4 1/2* I thought this was incredible. Sure it had so many amazing spots in it. It also told a great story. Mil was this dominating force early. Then the guys would do a run of hot moves. Then Mil would take control and dominate with his physical prowess. The boys would then run off 4 spectacular dives onto Mil. Puma and Pentagon Jr. would trade big moves and nearfalls. Eventually, Mil would recover and take out both guys with the Flatliner. Great stuff.

If he stopped the bomb throwing with no selling, then yes. I can't get over the piledriver on the floor as a normal spot in a match. Are you holding that spot against Terry Funk? At the clash match against Steamer that happened . Against Martel and Windham in Puerto Rico. Terry has used that spot in Japan too.

Spoiler vs Ken Patera This was a hard match to get a feel for. When thy announced the time limit at 15 it was really obvious we were getting a broadway. With no clear finish planned I thought the match lacked a strong narrative. It told a story, but if it was building to a finish I think the work would have been better. I thought Spoiler here was incredible with the teases of the claw. The actual claw, and all of the different variations of moves off the top ropes. I think I marked out the most when he was in the armbar and pretty much flipped out of it like a 160lb luchador. For Patera, I liked his charisma. I loved how he sold the avoiding of the claw. I loved how he ate all of Spoiler's offense. The big thing though his work on top was so boring and lacked any imagination. He was actively bad , at least try to cheat and get some heat. Yell at the fat kid in the front row. JJ Dillon was incredible too. The selling of Spoiler's punch with spitting the cigar high in the air was so awesome. 2 3/4*

Checking that out in a little bit.

Plus their is talks of going 2 hrs so they might be getting the women ready in case that happens.

That's the card they need to run in Dallas.

Murdoch vs Madril I liked this a lot. In some 1st fall we have Murdoch working a headlock and talking shit to the crowd. Just totally heeling it up. Murdoch used some good heel tricks. He used the hair pull into the headlock. He threw elbows into the neck. Madril steals the 1st fall. The 2nd fall Murdoch is the aggressor. He teases a stranglehold/rabbit punch. He gets a chair and hits him. He begins working the leg . This was all well done This all makes sense and wins with a half crab. 3rd fall was more great leg work. Again Madril steals the fall with a flash pin. 3 1/4*
