Posted November 22, 201311 yr comment_5573650 Thoughts from the PR thread. Macho's pre-match promo is great. Especially the weird sex line. Savage comes to the ring and is getting pelted by shit so he chases after ringside fans waiving his title belt over his head like a weapon and they scatter. Great shit. This was worked kind of like Candido v. Great Khali, with Savage as Candido and Ayala as Khali. Just all bumps, stooging, stalling, crazy mannerisms, et as he works around the obvious limitations of Ayala. I especially loved the way he airballed up against the ropes and on the big elbow. He takes over briefly with hide the chain spots, but the conclusion of this sees Ayala rip the chain from the Macho's nuts and pin him after a big shot. Maybe that's what the sex comment was about? Post-match little kids swarm the ring and this is the sort of match that makes you love Savage and PR wrestling all that much more. I rewatched it because I hadn't already nominated it and watching it again I think it's a fun stuff, easily better than some stuff that has been nominated already and it would be cool to get a Savage match on the set.
November 22, 201311 yr comment_5573655 WWC North American Heavyweight Title: "Macho Man" Randy Savage © vs. Hercules Ayala (3/2/85) We get a great promo from Savage before the match and great seeing the fans throwing trash at Savage as he walks to the ring. The story early is that Savage tries to outpower Ayala and fails hugely. Savage gets beaten from pillar to post while playing total chickenshit stalling whenver he could then caught Ayala with a low blow to finally get on the offensive but as he came off the top rope he got caught in a bearhug although another cheapshot gave Savage the chance he needed. Ayala to his credit though fought back quickly and again had Savage reeling but Savage would sneak a chain out of his tights to put Ayala down but not for the count as Ayala got his foot on the rope. Ayala pops right back up and comes back fighting but Savage knees him in the face then goes for the elbow but missed. Savage then got out his chain fast again and clocked Ayala but still couldn't beat him. Ayala is juicing but gets up and goes for Savage's chain which he gets and he nailed Savage pinning him to win the title. God I wanted more from this match considering Savage was involved but there just isn't enough here for a nomination.
