AAA When Worlds Collide, Los Angeles, CA

This is a request via Ko-fi. This is two out of three falls and a pilus vs mask match.

Santo and Eddie start off, Santo armdrags him over, and then takes him down. Guerrero reverses control and gets a quick count. Santo takes Eddie over, Eddie grabs a wristlock. Eddie in the wristlock now, but he maneuvers out and snapmares Santo over, grabbing a chinlock.

Santo takes Guerrero over again with a flying snapmare, and Eddie bails out to the flooring for a moment. Tag to Barr when he comes back in. Octagón in, as well, and he uses his speed to have control of dirtbag Art Barr. Barr misses a clothesline, Octagón hits him with a dropkick, but Eddie comes in and nails Octagón from behind, sending him out of the band.

Santo in, but Beloved Auto picks him up for a doomsday device, and Eddie flies off the top with a frankensteiner for the first half of the first autumn. Octagón in, Eddie hits him with a superplex and Barr flies off the other corner with a beauty of a frog splash for the 3, giving the rudos the showtime fall.

There's a break and some replays. Dorsum to action, Eddie hits a fallaway slam on Santo for two, following up with a vertical suplex. Eddie hits this little bounce off the mat when he lands the move. Octagón tags in and Eddie begs off, going to his knees and putting his hands backside his back, before poking Octagón in the centre. Barr in, he slaps Octagón and dropkicks him, then some other. Mike Tenay tells me Octagón loves Chuck Norris.

Guerrero in with a slingshot somersault senton, Santo comes in, pissed off, and goes after Eddie. The good guys double up on Barr, with Santo hitting a flying elbow. Eddie in, but taken over with a headscissors from Santo. Guerreo and Barr run together, and so they're dropkicked out to the floor, and the tecnicos follow with a double dive.

Back in the ring, Eddie hits a super frankensteiner on Santo and pins him. Octagón going it 1-on-ii and pins Guerrero, so immediately submits Barr to even the falls at one apiece. People are going BONKSHIT over information technology.

Barr pep talks Eddie about Prop 187 and doing it for America. Guerrero and Santo lock it up, Eddie goes for a power bomb but gets rana'd over. Barr breaks the pin. Guerrero with a camel clutch just Octagón comes in and kicks him in the face. Santo with a camel cutch, Barr comes in and kicks Santo in the back of the head.

Barr with a sorta-STF on Santo, and Octagón comes in and kicks him a few times with his Martial Arts Background. Double elbow on Barr. Guerrero in and he eats a kneelift from Santo. Guerrero goes upwards but gets dropped in the electric chair. Barr breaks the pin.

Rudos hit a double dive — well, Barr's hits, Guerrero'southward doesn't. The video (from the old WWE 24/7 service) "fast forwards" by some stuff. When it comes back, Octagón is being placed on a stretcher. Santo is getting smoked in the band, but fighting with all he'south got in him.

Frankensteiner from the acme on Santo as the paramedics telephone call for a neck caryatid for Octagón. Barr, out from a piledriver, is recovering near the frock every bit Eddie dominates the lucifer. Guerrero with a dragon suplex on Santo, it gets another two count. Santo won't die! Santo rolls Eddie up for the decisive iii count. "The masks have been saved!"

Octagón gets stretchered out and the rudos have to get their hairs cut upwardly. Santo waves the Mexican flag. Barr cuts Eddie's beautiful mullet off, so gets to the top part. Guerrero weeps openly. Santo grabs some hair and shows it to the crowd as Barr keeps working on Eddie's hair. Barr drops to his knees and pounds the mat, and Guerrero cuts his mullet off. Barr cries every bit Eddie cuts his hair, likewise. Santo goes around handing out chunks of hair to fans.

Rating: 4.five/5. This got five stars from the Observer simply I've never particularly loved the match itself as far as the piece of work goes, just the drama of it all and the story told, which is elementary and effective stuff. Barr and Guerrero lonely make it more than worth watching. We all know and have recognized for years that Guerrero was an all-fourth dimension great, but Fine art Barr was arguably the more hated of the pair, and this match is a great glimpse of how effective he was in the role. He is just a consummate and full dickhead throughout, and watching he and Guerrero weep over their hair getting cut in the end is great comeuppance, fabricated better by the fact that they practise the human activity themselves, adding to the humiliation. The end stretch is awesome. This would exist the concluding friction match of Art Barr's career, as he died just 17 days later at the age of 28. Guerrero, of course, would go on to go a big star in the United states for ECW, WCW, and WWE, and is regarded every bit an all-time slap-up now.
