NWA Main Event 5/1/88

Arn Anderson vs Lex Luger

Coming off the angle you thought it would be more hate filled. Luger working the arm is solid stuff. Nothing fancy, but effective. Arn though is effective in helping Lex work the arm. Arn is tremendous selling the arm. Luger is a surgeon just focusing on the arm. Arn is solid here. I'll go low-end nomination

 

"Total Package" Lex Luger vs. "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson (4/28/88)

 

Luger works over Arn's left arm early on and I agree for such a hate filled feud this sure is being worked like a normal match with not a lot of hatred. Dillon would get involved allowing Arn to get the advantage and he just drops Lex with the DDT. Arn was effective on offense using dirty tactics to keep Luger grounded and Luger did fine selling everything. Arn would hit a 2nd DDT basically to stop Luger from trying to fight back but it didn't stop him and as Luger was about to come back he jumps Barry Windham on the floor for a brawl. Tommy Young calls for the bell as Luger is beaten down until Sting & Doc run out to make the save. I think the match was good for what it was but with the finish I'm going to pass on this as a nomination.
