Midget knee lifts look unusually vicious. This is due in part to the selling, but also these guys appear to really be laying it in. You expect comedy with midget matches so I was fairly shocked by the stiffness of the shots. Little Coco getting the hot tag and destroying people with headbutts and leaping butt bumps was pretty great. Amusing spot with Little Coco headbutting Littlebrooks knee that Tokyo was trying to whip him into which of course resulted in Littlebrook's knee being hurt since Coco is a black midget. Tokyo rope humps both Lange and Coco and then accidentally does it to his own partner when the faces turn the tables. Lange's delayed vertical on Tokyo was pretty swank and I liked there leapfrog, into arm smash spot. Cowboy Lange with an awesome running sit down splash and then Tokyo sells the fuck out of an atomic drop leaping about five feet in the air off of it. They do a bizarre running battery ram spot with the ref getting squashed in the process. The teased dissension spots with Littlebrook and Tokyo are all lots of fun and really made great by Littlebrooks bombs away selling of strikes. Coco with an airplane spin for a nearfall and then a second with the faces pinning both heels for the finish. This was a sweet combination of schtick, comedy, spots, stiffness and racial stereotypes.

Cowboy Lang & Little Coco vs. Little Tokyo & Lord Littlebrook (7/18/85)

 

This was as good of a midgets match in North America as you were going to see at this time as not only did you have the normal midgets schtick and comedy but these guys were laying in the shots and the selling of said shots was really solid. I'm not a fan of the midgets normally but this was really good and should move forward.
