Posted July 28, 201114 yr comment_5478100 Jesus God can Hennig take offense here as he sells the fuck out of Greg's dropkick, runs smack dab into his forearms and punches and just generally looks great. Hennig fires back with some nice stuff too but Greg takes control with his awesome leglock thing. Madusa breaks it up allowing for another opening for Hennig, but Greg comes back with some kicks to Curt's injured leg and ties him up in the ropes to work it over even more. Hennig takes some big Hennigesque bumps while in the corner, but double legs Gagne down and takes over on him with a legdrop to his nuts and follows it up with a really brutal looking gutbuster. Hennig is still selling the shit out of his leg and goes to the second rope for a diving knee but Greg moves and ends up locking on the figure four. Curt makes the ropes and Greg tries to go back to it, but Hennig just kicks him right in the face. Cool spot as Curt goes for a piledriver, they do a great back body drop escape tease, and then Curt manages to wiggle back down and knee Greg in the face. He follows this up with an atomic drop, but Greg comes back shortly after this with a dropkick knocking Curt to the floor. This ends in a DCO with both guys exchanging big shots on the ground. I thought this was good shit, though not as good as the other match of theirs I've seen. Post-match brawl was awesome too.
May 23, 201213 yr comment_5503566 Curt Hennig v. Greg Gagne Solid Nomination - AWA Super Mix #25 - Match was pretty fun while it lasted. However, this is one of those matches that gave me flashbacks since I was watching AWA when it actually existed. I remember the empty chairs in the arena, Hennig the heel (my least favorite Hennig), #1 and the best babyface ace Greg Gagne. Gagne working the leg was good stuff and Hennig sold well enough. Lame finish though and I am feeling a low nomination more than solid.

June 2, 201213 yr comment_5505187 I watched this and wrote about it but I guess I never posted it which is weird. I thought the match was really good though and had it as a fairly solid nomination. khawk is correct on the date as well.
