Posted May 9, 201213 yr comment_5502137 NWA World Heavyweight Title: "Nature Boy" Ric Flair © vs. The Invader (9/21/86) God I hope this is in full. Flair shakes Invader's hand before the match as the darkness is rising in San Juan in a cool visual. There is a feeling out process to start with Flair trying to stall Invader a bit but Invader isn't having that and hits some rapid fire offense to get Flair begging off. Invader keeps beating on Flair here with Flair taking a nice bump over the top rope on the wooden plank for a floor. Yeah we go to a break and come back with Invader having Flair in a figure-four with the crowd going nuts.....SHIT I hate these clips. The rest of the match was really fun and looking on Youtube I don't see a full version of this on there which fucking sucks. This would've been a nomination in full. Hugo cuts a promo with Al Perez as he is working out talking about his feud with Invader. Al Perez vs. "Mr. USA" Tony Atlas (September 1986) This is basically a battle of who is stronger than the other which is funny considering that it's Al Perez against Tony Atlas. This is clipped up but I'm not complaining about it in this case as this match just wasn't doing it for me. Then we get a video of Perez working out. Next we get some WWC from 1983 which I've already seen. "Ragin Bull" Manny Fernandez vs. Random Guy (May 1988) Total squash. Kendo Nagasaki vs. Carlos Ocasio (May 1988) Squash. Mr. Pogo vs. Armando Salgado (May 1988) Squash. The Renegade Warriors (Chris & Mark Youngblood) vs. Mike Olivido & El Rebelde (May 1988) Squash. The Invaders (I y III) vs. Jack Dyer & Charlie Fulton (May 1988) Squash.
June 30, 201312 yr comment_5549522 I don't know if there is a full version of Flair vs. Invader around. Is that last tag match with Invader 3 before the Fernandez match?
November 17, 201311 yr comment_5573012 Ric Flair © vs. The Invader I didn't think the clipping hurt this that much though there is no telling how long it actually was. We got about eleven minutes, almost all of which was Invader on offense. Seriously I think Flair had maybe two or three offensive moves in the entire eleven minutes and they are all used to set up a spot for Invader. It was all well done, had good heat and to that end was effective, but this is your Flair stereotype match, and it also did not play to Invader's strengths at all. I did enjoy this, and would actually argue for it on the set but for two things - 1. I don't know how much we are missing and 2. The VQ is really bad for the last minute or so. If there is a better version of this out there and Boricua can tell us how much of this we are missing maybe. For now I will hold off on a nomination.

REst is repeats or squashes
November 17, 201311 yr comment_5573044 The only Youtube clip of this match is this one: This clip starts with Flair having Invader 1 in the figure four. At 2:18 of the clip, Eliud Gonzalez makes the 10 minutes have elapsed time call. After the match ends, there are some indignant fans yelling at the ref that Flair used a foreign object.
