Posted January 17, 200817 yr comment_5427255 Barry Windham vs. Harley Race (13:36) - This is probably the earliest example of Windham showing what he can do. Both guys bring the offense and they both even blade for our sick pleasure. In the shocker of all shockers, Barry pins Race in the middle of the ring on a roll up off the ropes. Harley tries to take Windham out after the match but Dusty saves. For his troubles, Harley piledrives Dusty on the concrete. The whole thing was pretty damn awesome and a nomination.

May 16, 201312 yr comment_5544853 Barry Windham vs. Harley Race (8/17/83) This is the match that made Windham a major player in the area and sure he had held various titles over the years but this match on TV was the one because Harley was the champ. Dusty is on commentary here so he is pushing Barry hard on commentary as well. This had some damn good back and forth action that really got going once Windham got posted on the floor bringing out the juice. Windham then makes a spirited comeback and sends Race to the floor where he returned the favor by posting Race who also is now juicing. This has now turned into a war of atrition with both men going all out trying to get the win which Windham would get after getting an O'Connor Roll. Race tries to give Windham a brainbuster on the floor but Dusty stops it and eats a piledriver for doing that. Fantastic match and a slam dunk nomination.
