Holy Crow, quite the racist promo from Coraluzzo "You've been eating that greasy smelly fried Memphis chicken."

The finish surprised me here, I expected a flash roll up by Bret, or UT getting DQ'd. This was rather fun, Taker just sort of ran through his usual stuff, but Bret was game and UT was good about bumping and selling for Bret, especially the dropkick that sent him out of the ring, and Bret's counter to the rope walk. Gorilla and Bobby were both on too. Gorilla: Look at that creep. Bobby: Well The Hitman is. . . . . Gorilla: I was talking about Paul Bearer.

I liked this, but Benoit working Lucha just seems like a huge disconnect to me. Sort of like the Benoit/Casas tag match earlier in the set. One thing I did dig is the finish, I've always hated how luchadores seem to give up as soon as the hold is applied, but starting with Villano's missed senton, Benoit focused on his back and Villano lingered in his holds plenty long enough.

I was blown away when I first saw this match seven or eight years ago. I still think it's pretty great, but not in the upper echelon of All Japan in the '90's. What sticks out for me is how giving Jumbo and Taue are to their much lower ranked opponents, Jumbo goes soaring off the apron when they both take shots at him, and Taue was very giving to Kikuchi in the early moments. I think Kikuchi's tag to Kobashi was a mistake, it seemed like a spot where he'd be oh so close and then barely miss it. But he made it and Kobashi had to come in and it seemed awkward. I loved the spot where Jumbo cut off Kikuchi going up top, so Kobashi ran to intercept him and first stopped to incapacitate Taue before halting Jumbo.

Arn feigning the knee injury was great, and Heyman offering Dustin money to leave was priceless. After weeks of sneak attacks, Dustin and Windham finally get one over on the Alliance when Windham stops Austin, and then also cuts of Dangerously trying to use the phone. Dustin holds them off with a chair while Windham gives Austin a taste of his own medicine.

Ho hum, just another outstanding trios from the Misawa/Tsuruta feud. Misawa's stoicism means that he isn't normally known for great selling, but he was pretty great here, and Jumbo and co. were awesome heeling things up on him. At least until he killed Fuchi with the elbow and then just casually walked over and tagged in Kawada. Kawada was great as the fired up partner, taking the fight to Jumbo and Taue. The finish stretch is fun, with Kobashi staying alive longer than anyone though he could have, I was surprised that he survived Jumbo's backdrop, but Taue finally kept him down.

Good lord I'm loving this stuff. I especially liked that the Moondogs had a chair that read RIP Jeff Jarrett, after Jarrett and Fuller had the RIP Richard Lee chair from the week before. Just when you think that maybe seeing these teams brawl and go nuts with weapons could start getting repetitive, Lawler shoots a fireball at Richard Lee and you're back to counting the minutes until next week.
