COVID Comp Tape #13

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

Ted DiBiase vs Magnum T.A. - July 6, 1984


I'm slowly making my way through the DVDVR Mid-South set, and a lot of it is good, but nothing so far has struck me as great. This isn't great, but it's the best thing I've seen thus far.

Stan Hansen vs Jerry Blackwell - June 28, 1986


Blackwell's a guy with a rep as an all-time great wrestler, which in my limited viewing I don't see, but Hansen rules, and he beats the shit out of Blackwell with a boot here. 

Stan Hansen and Genichiro Tenryu vs Giant Baba and Rusher Kimura - November 29, 1989


Hansen and Tenryu assault senior citizens. An all-timer.

Rey Mysterio Jr, Solar, and Volador vs Fuerza Guerrera, Juventud Guerrera, and La Parka - October 30, 1993


An all killer, no filler Lucha 6 man.

Masahito Kakihara vs Yoshinari Ogawa - January 15, 1999


Ogawa trying to beat a UWFi guy with eye pokes and cradles, great stuff.

Mariko Yoshida vs Megumi Fujii - May 24, 2003


One of the 3 best fighters in Women's MMA history in her first pro wrestling match against the premier female proponent of shootstyle. 

Guerrero Maya Jr. vs Virus - June 7, 2011


A Virus title match, the sort of thing you can set your watch to. They're always great.

[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
