Which was awful

 

[Santa Hoss]

Paul Heyman was just a young pup here

 

[Chris]

Really? I thought the gimmick was dumb but I still liked the match and thought the workers made the best of it

 

[Santa Hoss]

I think Imma make him my color commentator in AWA

 

[Santa Hoss]

I think I gave it 2 stars once. I guess it wasn't awful but it wasn't any good either. And the finish was dumb.

 

[Chris]

I can't rate matches but I'd probably say it was maybe 3-3 1/2 or so

 

[Chris]

Meltzer gave it 4 I also can't believe Bruno agreed to be the special ref for something that gimmicky

 

[Santa Hoss]

Jesus. Outrageous to me honestly lol.

 

[Santa Hoss]

Honestly there was just so much stupid stuff about it. The fact that they had to tag in and out, but rarely did. The fact that they were climbing on the cage, even though you really don't stand to gain anything from it and you run the risk of being shocked.

 

[Santa Hoss]

And the ending was bad

 

[Chris]

The climbing the cage for no reason is what took me out the most

 

[Santa Hoss]

Especially since the idea was it could only end by stoppage. So the promise was basically that there would be a decisive winner. But there wasn't.

 

[Santa Hoss]

In 2019 that match would be so much more exciting I feel

 

[Santa Hoss]

NXT needs to bring it back like War Games lol

 

[Chris]

The feud really should have ended after the I Quit match and not have involved Muta and Sting's own feud with Flair/Funk
