Total shoot novice here. I have no context for this match, so it proved to be a strange watch,as it was total 180 from what I'm used to Both guys were really going for it and some of the strikes and submissions were brutal. I'll give this a re watch once I've got a better handle on the style.

Fantastic match. Echoing what both Kevin and Loss said it seems the WWF left a whole bunch of potentially good matches off PPV and in this specfic instance, why did The Bushwackers/Rougeaus get the nod for the Rumble tag spot instead of this?

Grumpy old man Tenryu is tremendous. Like Eddy and Dragon its fun to see Misawa as the junior guy of his team knowing whats to come in the future. He takes a beating here. I enjoyed the finish which i've never seen before, but is so logical that you wonder why it wasn't done more. Cool match.

WCW was shown in the middle of the night on ITV in the UK, and our VCR was broken the week this aired so I had to stay up till god knows what time and sneak down stairs in the middle of the night to watch this with the sound down low and my face almost pressed up against the screen. The match holds up for me, quarter of a century later. Sad to see Muta on the way out as there was much more that could have been done with him. Which is sadly something that can be said about so many guys that WCW had over the years. Still he looks good here, although you can see why his knees are shot from how he lands on the moonsault. Hot closing stretch with Arn looking like a world beater and being a crazy over babyface. Which as so many have pointed out shows how much mileage there was in keeping the Horsemen face.

"Bumping" Bobby Eaton. People taking bumps from the apron to the guard rail always make me cringe and Eaton's was no exception. Bobby really showed what he could do here and I liked the story of him going after Flair's neck as it's still fresh in the audiences mind what Funk did to it less than a year ago. Flair showed that there was still mileage to be got out him as a babyface. Using the racket to win felt more like "turnabouts fair play" as opposed to "cheat to win". Lance Russel was excellent in calling all this
