Covid Comp Tape #10

The whole playlist is here, for your continuous viewing pleasure.

Carlos Colon vs Stan Hansen - October 12, 1986


There is a comp video of this entire feud on YouTube, I just started watching it. This is the first match on that comp, I really liked it.

Atsushi Onita, Tarzan Goto, and Hijo del Santo vs Horace Boulder, Tim Patterson, and Negro Casas - May 16, 1992


Negro Casas and Hijo del Santo, maybe the two best wrestlers in the history of lucha, have a great lucha match, while the other 4 FMW guys brawl around the arena.

Kensuke Sasaki vs Masahito Kakihara - October 9, 1995


This is from the first UWFi vs NJPW show. The entire show is fun, but kind of a dud. Takada/Mutoh stinks, Liger/Sano is good not great, and this match isn't great either, but they hit each other hard and the finish is cool. 

Sheamus vs Daniel Bryan - April 29, 2012


Sheamus rules. Daniel Bryan might be the greatest wrestler ever. This is one of the best 2 out of 3 falls matches in modern history. 

Roman Reigns vs AJ Styles - May 22, 2016


The WWE YouTube was on fire this week between this match and the Bryan/Sheamus match. There are a lot of babies who refuse to believe that Roman Reigns is a good wrestler. I assume they haven't seen this match or are pretending it doesn't exist, because this is a top 10 match in WWE history. 

Masaaki Mochizuki & Mayu Iwatani vs Kenoh & Syuri - August 7, 2016


This is an odd combination of wrestlers in an intergender match. Mostly they just kick each other a lot. Which, as you know, is peak pro wrestling. 

Katsuhiko Nakajima vs Shotaro Ashino - February 12, 2020


So, I don't watch a ton of Wrestle-1. I'll dip in every once in a while to watch Ashino, because he's great. But, I'm generally oblivious to the goings on in the promotion. So, I was late finding out that Nakajima had a brief run here earlier this year. He shows up and is a giant dick and tries to fight the entire promotion.

[04-30-2006] John Cena vs Triple H vs Edge

-

John Cena beat Triple H at Wrestlemania, but only because Triple H underestimated him, at least according to Triple H. He wants a rematch, but Edge won at WrestleMania, so he wants a shot at Cena. So, they both get a match with the champion at Backlash. Edge dips out early to let Triple H and Cena fight it out, and they are happy to oblige. Cena gets the advantage early, covers HHH, but Edge slips in the ring to break it up, and then pops right back out. The same thing happens when Triple H goes for a cover. Triple H and Cena are slugging it out, with Edge cheering them on from the apron. Eventually, they grow tired of Edge's shtick and team up to go after the Rated R Superstar. From here, we get a series of the guys coupling off, first Triple H and Edge, then Cena and Edge, and then Triple H and Edge. typical triple threat fair, with nothing much of note except for Cena hitting a top rope splash on Edge. Edge grabs Triple H is a sleeper and Cena slides in the rings, picks both up

[08-20-2006] John Cena vs Edge

  We've chronicled most of this feud up to this point. Edge cashed in the Money in the Bank in January, and Cena reclaimed the title at Royal Rumble. We didn't see Edge winning the title on Raw in a triple threat with Cena and RVD in July, but Cena had RVD beat until Edge stole the pin. After that, our last installment, Edge got Disqualified at Saturday Night's Main Event. Since then, Edge had sex on TV and slapped Cena's dad, bringing us here, Cena challenging Edge in Boston and if Edge gets DQ'ed, he loses the title.  Cena comes out ultra-confident and Edge is not, he knows Cena has his number and that, in some ways, the deck is stacked against him due to the stipulation, on top of this match being in Cena's backyard. All Cena early until Edge throws him into the ring post and takes over. Edge seems to think his best chance of winning is to have Cena counted out, and he attempts that feat twice to no avail. On the second 9 count, the Anti-Cena crowd really sho

[01-01-2022] Big E vs Bobby Lashley vs Seth Rollins vs Kevin Owens vs Brock Lesnar - WWE: Day 1

  Roman got COVID, so WWE threw Brock Lesnar in a Fatal 4-Way, and proceeded to have a 5-way hoss sprint. It ruled. Just non-stop big moves, all gas no brakes. Brock starts spamming suplexes, especially throwing some brutal ones on Kevin Owens. Big E dumps Brock out of the ring. Lashley brains E on the ring post then spears Brock through the barricade. Owens and Rollins, non-hosses, team up to try and match meat with Lashley and the Brock. That brings us to the plunder portion, Ring steps, the top of the announce table, all leading to Big E hitting a uranage on Lashley through the table. Seth and KO take over again on Brock and then E. Big E gets the knees up on Owens' Moonsault but Rollins follows right up with a Frog splash. Seth goes to Stomp Brock, but no. Brock F-5s him, then E, then KO, Brocks primal, and then he eats a Lashley spear. Hurt Lock on Brock, Big breaks it up, Big Ending on Lashley, F-5 on Big E and Brock is the new champ.  I don't know what Roman-Brock was su
