Remember how we said earlier that WrestleMania 2 never really gets mentioned since the shows either side of it are so big and essential? That’s all true, but what we didn’t mention is that WrestleMania 2 just is not that good. The truth is, I’d go so far as saying that if someone got here as much as me and said that the worst WrestleMania of all time is WrestleMania 2, I would not disagree with them to be honest.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But despite how bad this show is as a complete, there needed to be some kind of silver lining, and this was that silver lining. Full transparency, this match is nice at best. It isn’t going to make any “Biggest WrestleMania Matches”\u00a0lists or anything, but there are actually worse ways to spend quarter-hour.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Commencing with The British Bulldogs, it’s only while you return and watch a match like this right after watching something from the trendy day that you simply realize that they were truly ahead of their time. Dynamite and Davey have gotten such creative offense for the time, they utilize the fast tags, they cut off the ring, principally the entire fundamentals of tag team wrestling will be present in The British Bulldogs, but they’ve mastered the basics to the purpose where they’ll flesh out their offense to make it stand out on the time. Dynamite especially has an explosiveness that we’d go on to see from so many individuals who got their big breaks in Japan.<\/p>\n

Valentine also puts in an excellent performance here because the workhorse of the match, never really tagging in Beefcake and taking the majority of the punishment here. It isn’t his biggest performance or anything like that, but for being the heel and bumping far and wide to make challengers look much more credible was thoroughly done. Beefcake is the weakest within the match, but even then that is not saying he’s bad here, he just doesn’t get the highlight enough. Funnily enough, the little detail of him attempting to break up the pin that will win The British Bulldogs the titles, but getting his boot caught within the rope so he just falls over was a pleasant touch. It did appear like he tore his ACL attempting to execute that detail, but it surely worked like a charm.<\/p>\n

Davey and Dynamite get the win here with Valentine being thrown into Dynamite (who takes a nasty spill to the skin), which knocks Valentine out and Beefcake cannot make it in to save lots of the day. We have now recent champions at the tip of what was an excellent match. Nevertheless, what we did get was Ozzy Osbourne chewing his gun so hard that his jaw was in any respect three WrestleMania venues on tonight when celebrating with Dynamite and Davey. Ozzy holding the belt upside in celebration, and Cathy Lee on commentary saying things like “I’ve never watched wrestling, but my dad really did like that Gorgeous George,” because after all we did, it’s WrestleMania. Hunt down this match for those who want, just don’t watch the remainder of the show.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
