Posted March 2, 200817 yr comment_5428921 Jerry Lawler & Dutch Mantel vs. Bill Dundee & Buddy Landel - This is the prelude to the TX Death match and just an awesome match with everyone at the top of their game. Dundee takes the chain and accidentally busts Landel open with the chain and both guys eventually end up covered in blood. I swear, Lawler just punches Landel for about 5 minutes after the cut and Dutch even joins in. As far as I can tell, this is complete and probably the best VQ version of the match. After the match, both Landel and Dundee are treated to a table at ringside. The match is stopped due to Landel's severe blood loss. Absolute nomination. I can't believe this hasn't been nominated. if someone has seen this and not nominated it, why not????
March 5, 200817 yr comment_5429041 Mantell/Lawler vs. Landell/Dundee It's a brawl to start. This is hate filled. Memphis was tremendous at getting hate filled over. Landell and Dundee do some fun stooging here. Landell takes a big bump into the corner. Lawler and Mantell contol at the beginning. Fuck I'm torn on who throws the best punches here. Dundee kicks Lawler right in the balls. This allows Dundee to gain control. Not to make Mantell feel left out Dundee kicks him the nads as well. Dundee 4 Faces 0. Lawler is busted open from the table on the floor he was rammed into. This is some awesome brawling. Landell is a bloody mess and the match is stopped via Landell's blood loss. This was a kick ass all action match and a slam dunk nomination.
April 17, 200817 yr comment_5430729 Yeah this was totally spectacular, I wish we had all of the matches in this feud. Dundee's jabs were so great here, as was everything everyone else did. Boy do you buy the finish too, as Landell is getting murdered.
April 18, 200817 yr comment_5430737 So normally I'm not a big fan of ref stoppage finishes in pro wrestling, but I was actually sitting there going "C'mon Landell can no longer defend himself!!!" Like i was complaining about a boxing match. The way this was being worked really demanded a ref stoppage. And right as i started to complain the ref stopped it perfectly.
August 2, 200817 yr comment_5433518 Jerry "The King" Lawler & Dirty Dutch Mantell vs. "Superstar" Bill Dundee & "Nature Boy" Buddy Landell (3/9/86) This was fucking awesome as there was so much hate going around in the ring and outside the ring especially the stuff with Dundee & Lance. Lawler & Dutch just annihilated the heels here with some of the best punches thrown in the whole set while Dundee's kick to the balls on both Lawler & Dutch was great. Dundee bled from his bad eye injury from the previous week and was juicing away then Landell would follow suit after being hit by the chain. Landell then just got demolished by Lawler & Dutch until Jerry Calhoun actually felt sorry for him and stopped the match. The heels then got their ass kicked after the match even more to satisfy the fans. This is as slam dunk as it gets.
