February 25, 200817 yr comment_5428610 Mid-America Heavyweight Title Tournament – Semifinals: “Beautiful” Bobby Eaton vs. “Superstar” Bill Dundee (2/14/83) Dundee working on Eaton’s left leg early was fun as he was slapping him in the face as he was applying the pain. Eaton used a chain to change the pace and he worked over Dundee using eyerakes and the like. Dundee would counter that though with bootlace rakes across the face and some great punches but Eaton used his chain again to stop the charge. Eaton would continue with his dirty tactics and Hart would help out too by tripping up Dundee as he was running the ropes. Dundee though would make his comeback using some great punches with Eaton countering with his own but Dundee would clock Jerry Calhoun by accident and got DQed for it. Shitty finish but still a damn good match and I’ll cosign Bix’s nomination.
March 7, 200817 yr comment_5429116 Bobby Eaton vs Bill Dundee (2/14/83) - Damn, Dundee's backhanded strikes to Eaton's face looked pretty stiff. The story here is that Dundee is in control except that Hart and Eaton work together to use hidden objects to gain control whenevr the ref isn't looking. As Kris said, the finish sucked. However, I would like to compare this to the other Eaton-Dundee match that was nominated. Mild recommendation.
July 31, 200817 yr comment_5433421 Good punches, nasty eye rakes and some good bumping by Eaton. You kind of want this match up to be better, but this was fun stuff
July 31, 200817 yr comment_5433442 Phil, do you get the sense that we can include the 7/14/82 matchup and leave this one off?
July 31, 200817 yr comment_5433456 That seems about right, I wouldn't mind keeping it around for the final discussion, but this doesn't seem like a must have
