Posted August 22, 200718 yr comment_5420967 Spectacular match, possibly a top ten contender. Starts out with some great complicated matwork and standing exchanges, really stuff comparable to the Negro Navarro v. Engendro match we watched earlier. Then the brawl breaks out which is great too, including Chavo taking a monster bump on the loaded dropkick. Slam dunk, and probably my top Chavo match on this disc
August 24, 200718 yr comment_5421116 I don't like it as much as Phil, but it's still really good. Guerrero's drop kicks right off the bat were phenomenal. Guerrero going to work on Olympia's back was well done. It was neat how Guerrero worked some neat Lucha submissions in there. I thought Olympia's chinlock was really painful looking. I loved the bit of Guerrero dragging Olympia by the mask. Mr. Olympia breaks out a nasty looking back breaker. Like Phil, I loved Guerrero's bump off the loaded drop kick. This was a good match that deserves a spot on a disk. My main complaint with the match, and it's a small one was some of the strikes seemed a liitle lite; and it might just have been the timing on them because for the most part things came across really crisp.
September 26, 200718 yr comment_5422231 Chavo Guerrero vs. Mr. Olympia (6/24/83) Chavo starts this out as a house of fire but Olympia would counter with some headbutts before taking it to the mat. Chavo would soon turn the tide after hitting a flying cross chop for a nearfall and then Chavo starts with some lucha style matwork which Olympia looks like he knows what to do. Chavo then goes to the punches and gets the advantage but misses a somersault senton and Olympia would take over with a reverse chinlock that he holds on to for quite awhile. Chavo would reverse it but Olympia jacked his jaw in response then continued his offensive barrage but Chavo would soon make his comeback with some great punches and started dragging Olympia around by the mask but Olympia would throw him into the corner to break that up. Olympia took control back but Chavo would hit a diving body block for a nearfall and then an inside cradle for another nearfall before throwing Olympia to the floor and hitting a pescado. The match would go back to the ring and Chavo kept pounding on Olympia in the corner until Jerry Usher broke it up, so Olympia would load up his boot and delivered a dropkick sending Chavo crashing and burning to the floor in an awesome bump. Olympia rolled Chavo back in the ring and tried to finish off Chavo with a sleeper but he fought his way back after Olympia missed a diving senton off the second rope. Chavo made a fiery comeback and used a nice German Suplex hold to win the match. Chavo went for the mask afterwards but Akbar stopped him then DiBiase ran in and Chavo cleaned house on everyone until DiBiase hit him in the back of the head with the loaded glove. Chavo would get his ass kicked some more until Wrestling II made the save. Great match with both men looking great especially Chavo and a definite nomination.
