9-27-1996 Silver King vs. Emilio Charles Jr. Pretty good match with both guys playing their roles very well. From the beginning, they work a fast pace with plenty of intensity that never lets up.

 

They'd had an ideal build up with the 9/6 trios. Three weeks down the line was the payoff, and nobody could feel short changed. It would've been a tragedy if Charles' awesome hair hadn't been saved. It was Mima Shimoda '93 type of volume. The primera was over in 30 seconds. The pacing had to be tight, yet they found enough time to fit everything in. Both men bled and there were plenty of near falls. King was as good as I've seen him here. Aside from a couple of ill advised move choices he was working well above his midcard level. Emilio was hugely fun with his larger than life character.
