Posted December 10, 201014 yr comment_5460143 "You remember one thing, Custer surrendered, I didn't surrender nothing." Tremendous history lesson on North/South relations from Ice. Match is the same old from these teams, which is to say it was very good. These guys have a routine and you get the staples of that routine, including the double dive from the faces, the heels accidentally hitting each other over and over, the mid-match mic work, the JC can't slam Mikey spot, et. Some of the stuff in this was a little sloppier than in other matches early though it tightened up down the stretch. This one had the benefit of an especially nasty sounding Wolfie punch and a really good camera angle on the Wolfie rana of Spike into the turnbuckles. This also benefited from a heat section on Spike that was really well done and more varied then some of the others. I especially liked the tilt-a-whirl double team with J.C. refusing to cover Spike afterword and the spot with Spike getting bumped to the floor and Wolfie following up with a Macho Man style double axe to the floor. Wolfie hits a back body drop/elbow drop combo after a really good cut off clothesline that I've never seen before. J.C. grabbing the mic to shit talk leads to a nice teaser fall from Spike. Hot tag seemed a little uneventful and the finish was the same dropkick/schoolboy combo from most of their matches, but I think the meat of this one stacks up as well or better than all the others.

Once again, we are getting into touring match territory where there is little deviation from previous matches. However, some of the PG 13 double teams are looking swank. It also gets bonus points for JC stopping mid match to grab the mic and jaw with the fans. Before we include any of them, I am going to have to line them all up in a row and eliminate some after a back to back to back. Nice clean ending on this one as well and no dissention on the heels until after the match.

Some really good action from everyone early on before PG takes over using some really good double-teams on Spike and I really dug Wolfie here using some cool spots. Spike of course was the FIP and took his punishment like a man before making the hot tag to Mikey who ran wild leading to the sweet finish. This was another good match in their series and this moves forward fairly easily.
