Comments: well simply put; this goes as well as I expected it to go, just to make sure I had the right wrestler I went and looked up Abdullah the Butcher, I mean I knew I had the right guy, but just to make sure. All I am going to say in this version is yes I don't know much or very little about this wrestler and I will use that term very loosely, but by his reputation and legacy he is either one of the most violent or just the most violent ever in wrestling that at one point or another wrestling content creators will bring him up now and again.

Well straight off the bat we have Solie pointing out when these two were in Porto Rico this match was banned and for good reason. So obviously I had to go and find this match, but after a little research I couldn't find it, but however I could find these two battling at Capitol Sports Promotions Aniversario 1987 the Butcher has JJ Dillon with him. If you go in watch this match I have to give you a flashing effects/colourful effects/ blood warning also I would recommend fast forwarding the first five minutes, because they are just entering stuff and if you're wondering yes this match is messy.

But back to this pay-per-view; so we have a weapon being used at some points of this match they tried to do it when the referee [Stu Schwartz] may have a blocked vision in kafabe, but having said that he should have clearly disqualified Colon, because at this point the referee/we can see a weapon being used. But I do feel sorry for him even though he is in on this spot later on; he takes Colon lands on him when the Butcher kicks out a pin and then takes an elbow drop [from standing] which was intended for Colon but he moves out of the way so this referee takes it instead. I really, really wouldn't have booked the Butcher on this pay-per-view, for two reasons the first being this is the first pay-per-view of Starrcade he didn't deserve the honour and privilege to be on the card and my second point is; this individual is on now my viewing experience of two matches he is nowhere near a wrestler in fact he puts hardcore wrestling and the legendary wrestlers to shame, because they can/could wrestle granted to varying degrees but they could still do it.But in the interest of fairness and balance over these two matches, they don't make Colon look much better either and yes this would be the first times I have seen him wrestle as well.

Basic Result:  Abdullah the Butcher [with Hugo Savinvoich] picks up the win.
