Posted September 24, 200817 yr comment_5434848 Kevin Von Erich vs. Terry “Bamm Bamm” Gordy (10/21/83) Mercer starts pimping Mike Von Erich on commentary here and that isn’t a good thing. Kevin works his bodyscissors magic early in the match looking really good trying to get pinfalls out of it and countering Gordy everytime he tries to counter including one great time when Gordy eventually got out and tried his best to hit Kevin with a diving elbow but Kevin kept moving on his back so Gordy would get off balanced and Kevin locked him up again with his legs. It would take Gordy a while before getting on offense and when he did he just took it to Kevin hitting a beautiful swinging neckbreaker for a nearfall. Gordy then worked Kevin over good before Kevin would counter a suplex into an O’Connor Roll that Gordy would cutback using the tights to win. Bronko Lubich shows up and tells David Manning what happened and they would reverse the decision. Gordy would then attack Kevin after the match trying to use the Oriental Spike but Kevin would move and then tried to break his thumb but Gordy ducked out. This was another damn good match between the big brothers and this is a nomination.
October 2, 200817 yr comment_5434970 We've already got a million matches between these two nominated, which shouldn't really come as a surprise, as they were probably the two best workers in World Class at the time, and they got paired up with each other a lot. For reference's sake, this one ends with Gordy pinning Kevin after reversing an O'Connor roll and grabbing the tights, but Bronko Lubich seeing this and telling David Manning, leading to Manning reversing the decision. Not the best match I've seen between the two, but still fantastic and worthy of a nomination.
October 3, 200817 yr comment_5434998 12. Kevin Von Erich vs Terry Gordy Watching Kevin ground Gordy was swank. The head clap was nasty. Awesome spot where Gordy falls back down into the scissors was tremendous. Gordy getting the advantage and grounding Kevin was fun. The Oriental Spike adds a new wrinkle to this feud. I dug the piece of business after the match where Kevin attempts to break Bam Bam's thumb. Solid stuff overall, and a nomination.
October 3, 200817 yr comment_5435002 D'oh! I started a separate thread for this. Didn't see it had been nominated already. We've already got a million matches between these two nominated, which shouldn't really come as a surprise, as they were probably the two best workers in World Class at the time, and they got paired up with each other a lot. For reference's sake, this one ends with Gordy pinning Kevin after reversing an O'Connor roll and grabbing the tights, but Bronko Lubich seeing this and telling David Manning, leading to Manning reversing the decision. Not the best match I've seen between the two, but still fantastic and worthy of a nomination. [WCCW Dallas/Ft. Worth 7/29 - 11/24/83 (Disc 3)]
