Kevin von Erich vs King Kong Bundy
This is for Kevin’s North American title. Kevin is all
fight, in the face of Bundy early doors, to the extent that he actually gets
Bundy over on a side headlock. Even more unlikely, they work some mat
reversals, including Bundy countering to a headscissors. Didn’t expect that.
Lovely spot where Bundy won’t let Kevin back into the ring, so Kevin does laps
of the ring, using his speed to sneak an opening. Von Erich get the claw, but
Bundy is in the ropes. Bundy moves the referee in the way as Kevin comes off
the top, taking him out, and throws von Erich over the top rope, but it seems
that the ref spots it, as he pulls Kevin out of the way of an avalanche attempt
to declare him the winner. Really neat match.
Brian Adias vs Terry Gordy
Adias is accompanied by Kerry von Erich, so Gordy has his
focus on Kerry most of the match. It affects his concentration, as Adias breaks
a headlock to get an overhead wristlock instead. Sadly, a lot of this match is
Gordy holding a headlock, which isn’t very interesting. Michael Hayes comes out
to lure Kerry away, and the distraction lets Gordy hit a piledriver to win.
King Kong Bundy vs The Samoan
Pretty pedestrian squash for Bundy. He just wears the Samoan
down methodically, though his big kneedrop to the back looks great. An
avalanche is followed by a backbreaker and a splash for the win.
