Posted September 17, 201114 yr comment_5482962 US Heavyweight Title: Michael "PS" Hayes © vs. "The Total Package" Lex Luger (5/22/89) This starts at a fast pace as Luger gets a nearfall on a cross body block sending Hayes to the floor to regroup as the fans are apeshit for Luger. Luger would then take it to the mat working an armbar but Hayes would bring it upright and after Luger missed a running smash into the corner he ate a big DDT sending him to the floor. Hayes posts Luger and begins working on his head like a rabid dog with punches and other strikes. The fans are on their feet for Luger as he fires up giving Hayes some fast paced offense leading to the powerslam and calling for the Torture Rack but Hayes breaks free trying for the DDT but Lex countered that. Lex then hits a big press slam on Hayes before hitting the big 10 punches in the corner but ate a big left hook by Hayes as he went for an inverted atomic drop. These guys are really moving here and Hayes would get an O'Connor Roll but Luger cut it back and used the tights to get the win as Bluefield, West Virginia loses their shit. This was a damn fun sprint and although it was short these guys were busting their ass and I think it deserves a look.

Hayes just ooozes charisma. Even in just 5 minutes Hayes is great at antagonizing the crowd. The left hook by Hayes was nasty looking.
