The real match that punctuates the Netflix series. Definitely ahead of their time. I'm not sure it's even "ahead" of its time as this kind of heat has never really been replicated. Those teenage screams that went on for 30 straight minutes, coupled with the hysterical sobbing at the conclusion. This kind of match was a product of that moment in time and I don't think it could ever happen again. |

This kind of match was a product of that moment in time and I don't think it could ever happen again. The crowd reaction will never happen again, but the match itself is still ahead of its time. Dump's presentation is really tremendous, pre-dating the Road Warriors by a year and The Sandman by many years. A table is tossed in the ring in 1985. The brawling is excellent but then there's also some really smooth wrestling counters thrown in that would make 99% of female wrestlers today envious. The attention to detail and realism on the selling and cranking of the submission moves is really good too. I really enjoyed the match. It's much better than the exaggerated histrionics shown on Netflix. |
