Posted August 30, 200718 yr comment_5421301 This is the Houston scaffold match, and is every bit as good as the other scaffold match. You can't do much more then punch on a scaffold, but all four guys have great punches, and I loved crazy Bobby Eaton, constantly climbing around the scaffold to try to get an advantage, I am not sure we need both scaffold matches on a disc set, but I am nominating this
August 31, 200718 yr comment_5421370 I liked this match quite a bit too. The camera angles were basic but highlighted how crazy high the scaffolding was. I also liked Dennis Condrey overcoming his fear of the wobbly scaffolding at the beginning. Finally, the way Bobby Eaton was knocked off the scaffolding could not have been more perfect, including his selling of his hip.
November 6, 200717 yr comment_5423549 IF we have to pick between the two scaffold matches, the house show is a better pick. This one had a couple of things going against it. First, I understand there should be some hesitation before hooking up but Boesch called 5 minutes in right as the first contact was being made. Next, and maybe this was what Lee was alluding to, they set up the scaffold so that the hard camera does not get a panoramic view of the action and it was hard to tell what was going on when they switched to that shot. The Duggan/Sawyer promos in the middle also broke the flow. The finish camera shot was better since the close up camera was used but the other one had more action, blood and would be the lesser of two evils IMO.

Yes the Duggan/Sawyer promos in the middle were great but terrible timing.
