Jerry Lawler vs. Bill Dundee (CWA 12/30/85)
I don't know that there's pro wrestling as conceptually interesting and beautifully executed as Bill Dundee working over Lawler's bad eye, staying on his blindside, and picking away with some of the most evil punches ever.
I'll be honest, sometimes more dumb than disgusting but also just disgusting enough to just out and out rock.

Bill Dundee vs. Jerry Lawler (CWA 12/21/85)
Look at this control work by Dundee here. Active while remaining deeply unlikable and vicious. Beautifully straddling the line of being malicious in nature and compulsively watchable. Some of the best heel control I've ever seen.

***3/4
Not in love with the finish of this, but 98% of this is an absolute masterclass in classic American pro wrestling with fantastic performances from both men. Great, great bout that everybody should check out.

The Black Warrior apuesta in 06 is a fascinating one in Mistico's development, especially compared to Mistico/MJF from last year. In the 06 match, Mistico has a worse bladejob and does a worse job incorporating it into his standard match. Night and day from the MJF match.

Watching some of the Jersey J-Cup highlights, looking like JCW might be doing some more Kozone/Priest moving forward. Something to keep an eye on.

Really great. Oiwa again does a lot with the early matwork, but it all very smoothly escalates into the bigger bombs where the kid finds himself outgunned by the veteran heavyweight.
