Posted February 17, 201114 yr comment_5464739 JIP. The opening is fun as Scott Hall dominates with power moves and his size and Regal actually refuses to tag in at one point rather than deal with Hall. Hennig comes in and works a headlock on Regal but they end up doing a rope running exchange that ends up with Garvin distracting the ref and Hennig taking a huge bump over the top to the floor. The AWA staple of babyface selling and getting kept at bay on the floor can fall flat sometimes but Hennig sells it really well here and takes an awesome bump off of a running forearm once he gets back in the ring for a good nearfall. Regal's running elbow looked sick here and Hennig took the head cracker real well. They really do a wonderful job with the teases here as every hope spot ends with Hennig taking a dangerous looking bump. Hennig is great desperately trying to work his way to the tag and the spots with him getting pulled back and then pummeled by the heels worked well. Hennig takes his great double knockout bump and the crowd explodes for the hot tag to Hall. Regal takes some nice theatrical bumps for Hall who ends up steamrolling right through both guys. Regal ends up accidentally backslding Garvin for a fall? Regal holds Hall but Garvin misses and hits his own man and Hall/Hennig take the fall. Good match.

The faces shined early on and there was some fun moments with Regal refusing to tag in and some good selling by the heels period. Hennig would get thrown over the top rope by Regal as Garvin had Marty Miller occupied and that would start the heel control section which was done well as they took the punishment to Curt who was very good at selling everything. Curt's hope spots were fun as well and the fans were into it before he got the hot tag to Hall who was good here taking it to both men leaving them confused enough for Regal to backslide Garvin by mistake. Garvin would then hit Regal by mistake off the top rope and the faces got a big win. This was a fun match and I'll push it forward.
