Posted June 5Jun 5 comment_6030774 BOB BACKLUND vs STAN HANSEN-CAGE (04/06/1981; WWF MSG; New York, NY; 00:15:08) - Holy shit, Bob is vicious in the cage. Throwing Stan into the steel multiple times; raking his head across the entire cage; Stiff punch to the gut while Hansen is climbing the ropes. Bob thanks he has done enough but as he goes up, Stan gives him a nasty nut shot. The crowd felt that one. Bob will not stop ramming and raking Hansen against the cage. That’s why we have these matches. Hansen is bleeding and Bob is punching the cut. Hansen fights back but Bob catches his leg… and kicks him in the nuts. Fuck. Bob is just pounding him down. Stan and Bob fight trying to leave the cage. They are battling on the top rope. Bob hits a headbutt to send Stan tumbling. Stan climbs one more time but Bob pulls him down as he hits the turnbuckle on the way down. Bob walks out right after. This seemed anti-climactic until I saw Stan fall and actually hit his head on the last time he was pulled down. Hansen is pissed off after the match when he realizes he lost. This was awesome. EASY NOMINATION.
