Slash continues to be the big dog in Power Pro and beats the Bulldog here. Bulldog has a very meat and potatoes approach that is refreshing in some ways but certainly lacks polish in other areas and when a move is off for him, it is way off. Baxter helps run some interference for Slash. *1/4

Semi final match up in the ‘Ultimate Victory’ tournament. Slash jumps Raines the moment he steps through the ropes and starts to go to town on him. Bulldog reverses the Irish whip and a big back drop. Running lariat in the corner, but he misses the charge and goes crashing chest first into the turnbuckles. Cobra clutch submission by Slash. Bulldog escapes the neckbreaker finisher and takes Slash down with a shoulder tackle that gets him a two. Sidewalk slam and again Slash is able to kick out in time. ‘Blue Thunder Driver’ but this time Brandon Baxter is taking no chances and is in there to break up the pin himself. After a powerslam fails to put his man away Bulldog complains to the referee about the slow count, however while he does, Slash pulls a fork out from behind his shin guard. When Raines goes for a belly to back suplex, he jabs him in the head with it, neckbreaker and Slash moves on to the final where he will face Brickhouse Brown.

 

The big Bulldog actually isn’t that bad of a worker, and is certainly better than you would expect on first look. There’s nothing flashy about him, he’s very ‘meat and potatoes’ but with a simple power based offense that he uses to maximise his strengths.
