Marty Jannetty vs Johnny Polo
Here’s tonight’s big match, and it’s the opener featuring a
manager as a competitor. This really isn’t very good, and you suspect Polo has
been told not to look too competent, as this is way worse than his Scotty
Flamingo stuff. I liked the opening comedy, where Polo tried to attack
Jannetty, who was holding a mic, only to end up getting tied up by Marty in the
cable. Jannetty is one step ahead, even landing on his feet when thrown to the
floor and rushing back to hit a crossbody for two. Polo takes control going
into the break, and keeps holding Marty down with chinlocks, as well as hitting
a spectacularly blown back bodydrop, where Marty kind of skids over his back.
Control transitions back to Marty via my least favourite reversal – the heel
tries a double axehandle to lying-down opponent but gets a boot to the face
instead – and he finishes with a Rocker Dropper for 3. Polo really was no fun
in control, and he controlled too much of it.
Bam Bam Bigelow vs Miguel Rosado
Half-hearted squash of the pot-bellied Rosado here, who
tries a really shitty dropkick early on. I liked Bam Bam just hurling him
across the ring, but this is very by the numbers. A diving headbutt, not even
from the top, gives Bigelow the win.
Kwang vs Rich Myers
Myers has offence so weak he makes Dolph Ziggler look like
Super Dragon. Kwang actually looked ok here, dug his big over-the-top-rope
corner spin kick, and he had a few nice kick combos. Kwang hits a few throat
thrusts whilst holding Myers by the hair, stopping him falling down, and a
superkick gets three. Perfectly fine
Decent squash for the returning Quake. Nice belly-to-belly,
big running clothesline and a running corner splash all looked great, before he
hit the seated splash for the win. Enjoyed this.
