Pretty great match, Fantastics are really at there best and Tatum and Victory are the worlds best Rock and Roll RPM'S. I love Fultons little on the mat 619's, plus the Fantastics have amazing drop kicks. This also has the great Missy turns on Tatum angle at the end with Tatum blading nastily on the Gucchi purse shots.

This was pretty fun. Missy was really annoying working ringside. The Fantastic's offense in this was awesome. The dropkicks, monkey flips were awesome. Tatum and Victory bumped for all their offense. I love how Ross and Hayes put over the Fast break comparison. Fulton really threw some great looking punches. I've said that a lot about the Mid-South matches. Tommy Roger's is one of the great workers of the era. Both Tatum and Victory were good hands in the ring and really brought a believeable offense to the match. Both teams worked a nice tag match together. To top it off they climaxed the famous Eddie-Hyatt-Tatum love triangle angle. Overall, it was a really fum match with the Fantastics looking like a million bucks.

I'm going with Shoe over Phil here as match was more fun than great. Match was fine but it gets on the set more for the really well executed outisde distraction finish leading to Missy switching teams than for the actual match itself.

UWF Tag Titles: The Fantastics (Bobby Fulton & Tommy Rogers) © vs. John Tatum & Jack Victory (10/12/86)

 

Rogers’ dropkicks were tremendous here as the Fants dominated this early and Tatum was great at getting beaten up. We go to a break and come back as Fulton gets his shoulder injured on the railing and Rogers/Tatum having a helluva fight on the floor. They work on Fulton’s shoulder and he fights them off the best he can with one arm but for a while it isn’t enough. Fulton would hit a high kneelift and tagged Rogers in to a huge pop in Tulsa. The stereo monkey flip spot was great and Hot Stuff comes to ringside with flowers wooing Missy as her guys get their ass kicked. Tatum goes over to Gilbert & Missy and Rogers locks him in an O’Connor Roll to retain the titles. Missy decides to leave with Gilbert but Tatum stops them and it heads back to the ring with Tatum jackin Gilbert’s jaw. Tatum grabs the flowers and throws them but Hot Stuff International shows up and jumps Tatum. Tatum eats a Hot Shot then Missy nails him with the Gucci Bag and Tatum bladed on contact clear as day. The crowd goes nuts as Missy has left with Hot Stuff International. This was a solid match and the turn alone makes it a definite.
