The Avenger that shows up at the ring is not the same guy as before and unmasked to be Brad. Landell takes an INSANE back body drop at the jump. Brad's offense looks really tight here and Landell is taking it well. Really loved Armstrong's elbow drop and his selling of Buddy's shot was excellent. Buddy went straight to the figure four and tried to go for it again but got caught in an inside cradle for a near fall. Love how they went into boxing stances with Brad winning out and hitting a sick knee lift only for Buddy to fight back with classic heel attacks of the eyes. Landell goes to a Fujiwara armbar takedown of all things. Brad makes a comeback and Corny tries to throw the racket to Budro but Brad slips in the Russian legsweep and gets the pin. Solid tv match.

Brad Armstrong vs. "Nature Boy" Buddy Landell (6/12/95)

 

Brad unmasks as Armstrong's Avenger and makes his SMW debut here blazing away on Buddy. Brad brought it here with some crisp offense with Landell being great at selling everything but Buddy got some offense in as well getting a figure-four on Brad. Buddy sells frustration as he wasn't prepared for this so he has no offensive gameplan and is winging it which takes some time so Brad has some time to recover. Corny tries to get involved but Brad knocks him off then hits the russian legsweep to win. This was a fun TV match and moves forward.
