Funk keeps calling Chris Cruise by the nickname Crispy. I liked Eaton’s version of the backbreaker where he turns into a pinfall attempt but keeps the knee in the back at the same time. Eaton takes a crazy bump off the top rope to the floor outside. That was scary. They really didn’t sell it much though. Cornette gets involves lots which you expect. Camera angle misses finish as they show Cornette on the floor instead of what is happening in the ring. Typical match from these two teams though didn’t seem to have the crowd heat.

I'm in 111C. Tickets were really expensive overall but I didn't take a vacation this year so felt like it could pay a bit more.

Ghastly eye injury that had me cringing. Have never seen this but have heard about it. I can tell something is wrong with Vader but we don't get a good close up at first which annoys me. Then when we finally see it I'm barely able to watch. Vader is freaking out at first and looking like he wants to just leave the ring. I'd be totally scared if something like that happened to me. He continues to battle on with Stan Hansen of all people. Not a great match but it is very physical. They do a lot of teases of getting counted out so when it finally happens it's pretty obvious but also kind of disappointing.

I think I preferred the previous tag match to this one. Tiger Mask just seemed off in the match. It did get really good when Tenryu and Choshu were in there together. They kept their interaction early to brief moments so it built to later in the match when they went at it more. Count out finish wasn't the best but there is a certain amount of protecting in these inter promotional matches.

Crowd is way more involved compared to the previous Larry/Saito match. Great atmosphere. The tease of maybe Jumbo tapping out to the submissions were great. Drama for the armbar attempt was fantastic. Finish was kinda weird with Jumbo just doing a Thesz Press and getting the pinfall. Fun match.

Crowd was really quiet early on the Larry could be clearly heard through the match. Felt this was going to be a flat match but they manage to turn this into a good match. Larry goes all heel with the low blow that the fans don't like. They really had me on some of the later small package pinfall attempts. Nice moment for Saito.

Match definitely has odd feeling after the earlier turn on the show. This was the most heavily promoted match leading in and now you have the crowd actually cheering Muta's team. Trying to see the Sting injury but it's not clear. He was getting yanked on pretty hard at times by people trying to pull him off the cage. Oh the second time Sting tries to climb there seems to be something wrong as he barely even climbs it. And he's visibly hobbling too. That sucks.

Real goofy ending where we don't seen what actually happens as the finish. But can't be bringing a camera into the women's bathroom anyways. Solie makes an attempt to get into the lady's bathroom but gives up quickly. Mean Gene would have been slamming on that door trying to break it down.

Sheesh, this came way too fast. I know it was coming but it really wasn't played up enough on TV that Horsemen were not satisfied with Sting. Anyways, Ole does a pretty decent job explaining why Sting is getting booted out of the Horsemen. Seem like they might do the whole what will happen throughout the show as Ole gives Sting the option of just walking away but Horsemen put the boots to him immediately.
