Posted September 24, 200817 yr comment_5434846 Gentleman Chris Adams vs. Terry “Bamm Bamm” Gordy (7/15/83) This is Adams’ first TV match against a Freebird. The match started out slow with Adams having Gordy in a headlock for a good amount of time on the mat before a good exchange ending with Adams hitting a senton right on Gordy’s ribs followed up by a slam that Gordy sold like death and the Superkick that Gordy did a complete flop for landing on his head with his feet on the ropes. Adams then covered Gordy but he got his feet on the ropes before hitting a thrust to the throat. Gordy then went on offense just pounding on him before hitting him with a kneedrop after lowering his kneepad right on the head but would try it again and missed. Adams then started kicking at Gordy’s legs before hitting with two flush Superkicks that the last one looked awesome. Gordy was laid out on the mat so Adams went up top for a senton bomb but Gordy rolled away leaving Adams to hit the mat. Gordy then tried to slam Adams but countered into a GERMAN SUPLEX HOLDAH to get the huge upset win. Gordy would get pissed and attacked Adams after the match hitting a Samoan Drop before slapping him in the face. This started out slow but goddamn what a finish and this is a solid nomination.
September 30, 200817 yr comment_5434949 Terry Gordy vs Chris Adams These are the 2 best workers in wccw so the pressure is on for a great match. Both wrestlers in the early going make good use of the mirror sequences. I fouund the headlock spots interesting and well worked. Both wrestlers were great at taking the crowd up and down throughout the match. I would have liked this to have gone longer, but I feel this is a solid nomination.
February 25, 200916 yr comment_5437698 This was a total blast, a little slow at the beginning, but Adams is one of the best guys in wrestling history at putting together awesome finishes. This was sort of high end version of the Adams v. Khan match I loved so much from Mid-South.
November 25, 200915 yr comment_5446005 I'd pass. This was good, but I wasn't really struck by it. For the two guys with the best reputations as workers going into this set, Gordy and Adams never seemed to match up that well for some reason.
