This starts slow, but DWB takes down Pritchard and the Thugz really go to work on Pritchard's injured foot. Cool dynamic really with Smothers hitting flashier shit and DWB grinding it out and just throwing punches to Pritchards foot. Smothers gets kicked off and nailed in the back of the head coming off the ropes going FIP in the process. Great sunset flip teaser that led to Smothers eating a superkick from Del Ray. Smothers hits a DDT and gets a hot tag. REally lame ref bump and Anthony hits the Bucksnort Blaster right after. Thugz hit the assisted jawjacker on Pritchard but the ref is still out. DWB gets distracted and Pritchard loads up the boot leading to Smothers getting kicked and the finish. Borderline.

I thought this was a real solid match. The ref bump was pretty lame. The work on Pritchard's leg,ankle was awesome. The reverse hot tag that the ref didn't for the Bodies was a nice touch. They need to do that spot more often since the ref will miss a tag for the faces much much more. Smother's FIP was well done. This feels more like a solid nomination on the work on the boot. Plus the boot plays into the finish was cool. Ref bump was blah though.

SMW Tag Titles: The Heavenly Bodies ("Gigolo" Jimmy del Ray & Dr. Tom Prichard) © vs. The Thugz ("Dirty White Boy" Tony Anthony & "Wild Eyed Southern Boy" Tracy Smothers) (9/5/95)

 

Thugz dominate early and they key on Prichard's loaded boot wanting to injure him more and this was effective. Tracy would get caught though by a Prichard boot shot and the Bodies would take over punishing Tracy until he gets a desperation DDT leading to the hot tag to the DWB who runs wild. The 4-way brawl is on leading to a Curtis ref bump with DWB hitting the Bucksnort Blaster on Gigolo. Thugz then hit the Double Impact Jawjacker but still no referee so Doc would eventually load up his boot and he nailed Tracy for the win. This had some good action and moves forward.
