Comments: we
have what I will call manager watch, we have these squares on screen of these
competitors managers watching individually and the commentary team talking
about it, followed by good quality wrestling and the commentary team treating
it as a real sport, instead of predetermined kayfabe [to be fair the commentary
team do this from the very start of this match/match slot anyway.] Beefcake
performs this back body drop on David Sammartino;
David seems to not go off straight and not get enough left off Beefcake ongoing
up and over so consequently this looks sloppy as he goes over with a bump [in
the interest of fairness and balance Beefcake to get out of a wrestling move
uses his ring attire to get out of this wrestling hold, so as it relates to
here and now Monsoon goes with the narrative of this is just an excerpt;
"Sammartino gets thrown in and back body drop for his troubles still blinded I'm sure"
[Monsoon a little later makes another reference to David's vision.] Beefcake
sends David into the top right from the bottom left corner of the ring and I
know I am not an expert on things in an outside of the ring as it relates to
wrestling as I have already made reference to or the actual ring itself, but I
still have my hearing and based on my hearing this top right section doesn't
sound right as in after this match someone might want to run some repairs on it
and no I am not being too picky here, when or if you come to watch this match
you can clearly hear something; someone might want to take a look at.
Now as I was saying ; this match
is/was shaping up to be another solidly good match I do stress was, but as you
can see from the marking something happened which can be seen as one in the
same as it relates to positive and a negative; generally speaking we have this
rumble involving these two participants and their managers which on a positive
the crowd participation goes nuts [but as it relates to the match/match slot
it gets 8/10,] but on a negative it affects the Basic Result of this match
which you will soon find out, but I would have preferred to have a better outcome, even if it was a dusty finish would have been more satisfying [Beefcake picks up the win,] but more speculation I don't know if they had something downlines later on, but a dusty finish would have still justified the potential for something down the line anyway or they just wanted to protect these two competitors as the commentary team Nearer to the beginning of this match basically talking about a loss here loser here and the potential ramifications of that.
Basic Result: I know I have indicated this result in some way, but I still have to do the admin; Draw
Background information: after this match; Monsoon and Venture take a look at
the recap of elements of this match and then we go back to live footage of this
father and son leaving and then we see a picture of a crowd and the wrestling
ring with voice over from both commentators talking about what has just taken
place and previous event on this pay-per-view as it relates to Bundy and then
back onto this previous match/match slot.
If this was a live event on TV it feels like they took a break here and then came back with Monsoon sending us to Hayes [where even before Monsoon has finished handing it over to him; you can clearly hear him starting this segment; but speculation someone must have told him not yet, because he starts again.] Can someone please stop hanging Hayes out to dry here, I am not even getting on his back but clearly see he is really uncomfortable with all of this as he is still reading this off autocue or cue cards or something to that effect where previously; "Luscious" Johnny Valiant with Beefcake walking across into the shot and telling Hayes "Hey wake up will you." this time we have "Mouth of The South" Jimmy Hart with the Intercontinental Champion Valentine doing basically the same thing but with one difference as he walks across into the shot he laughs fairly close to Hayes's face [on the right-hand side] as they walk down and to the ring [but this could be all speculation again as Hart is being in kayfabe and he does clap as to build up his guy Valentine] but then again with Hayes having this look on his face or more specifically in his eyes to go " I wish they would stop doing that." As he carries on but gets cut off by these pre-recorded comments he is trying to introduce with Okerlund, Hart, Valentine and Dog involved in the next match/match slot.
We go back to Monsoon with World Wrestling Federation insert
name vs insert name with Inter-Continental heavyweight Championship Monsoon hands things over to
Finkle so he can do his thing; Dog's entrance music hits with coming out with Dog meeting up with police escort/security role and I don't know about the other personal he could be police or security or other, he just isn't in uniform of what I can see Dog is being treated like a rock star as he is walking down to the ring as the crowd goes wild. .
