Posted January 19, 201610 yr comment_5721524 Billy Jack Haynes vs. "The Crippler" Rip Oliver (2/22/86)Each man brought out their buddies to watch their backs here as the winner will represent the Northwest in Japan. Oliver tried to start slow but Billy came out blazing throwing all kinds of bombs as the crowd went nuts. Billy would drop Oliver with a piledriver but only got a nearfall then kept up the pressure until Oliver caught him with a shot to the throat. Oliver then took it to the floor where he bashed Haynes over the head with a steel chair and now he is in full control roughhousing Haynes in the ring. Oliver then totally wiffed on a piledriver which looked HORRIBLE as Billy bumped right on his head after Oliver lost him falling backwards. Oliver works over Billy's neck fiercely and then actually hit the piledriver this time but he couldn't put Billy away. Billy is juicing now but as Oliver tried to suplex him back in the ring , he got him in the Full-Nelson and then Sandy Barr got bumped. Jaggers hit Haynes in the back with something and Oliver got his own Full-Nelson but Cocoa jumped off the top on Oliver with Barr making the count to give Billy the win. Other than the whiffed piledriver this was a very strong aggressive match and moves forward fairly easily as a nomination.
