youtu.be/VaVYqTi1yb0Please discuss. The Segunda Caida fellas already said anything I could think to say. This is simply a match that makes me feel as if it’s still possible to Walk the line of “is this a real fight? I know that wwf stuff is fake but this is real right?” And I like that feeling and if it takes putting a ring inside of a junkyard and two sextagenarians mauling and maiming each other to get there then so be it.

This is something everyone should see, two nasty people going after each other with hate in their eyes. It is an intense brawl that never lets up, but with some genuinely shocking moments sprinkled in. The finish is inconclusive, but it is a hell of a journey. I am not sure what to do with a match like this, but it is unlike anything I have seen before, that's for sure.

This is very much in my wheelhouse. From my top 25 of 2021...
"To quote my younger, hipper students, “it’s a vibe”. It’s a match that can only be described as a vibe, the vibe of two old men who are sworn to kill each other, yet neither can remember why… the vibe of wrestling’s carnivalesque absurdity stripped down and quite literally thrown in a junkyard. I watched two Black Terry matches this year and they both made my list because brawling old man Black Terry is the truth. This isn’t going to be for everyone, just us ghouls. This one is a little heavy on the walking around and waiting around to get punched even for me (otherwise it would be much higher), but what it might lack polish it more than makes up for in old man violence."
I went high on this, but not top 5-10 on the year and I've had lingering doubts about my decision every since. You have to be able to tolerate a little bit of walking around and waiting around to get punched really hard to enjoy this kinda thing and I'm generally quite ok with that, but this was a little heavy on it even for me. That said, some of the moments and face offs and shots were up there with the best crazy brawling you will ever seen. The ending was not the punctuation mark on this I was hoping for. They really should have gone with the "two guys fighting until they are too tired to fight" finish of something like Terry v Wotan. It is all very nit-picky, but it is the kinda thing that takes something like this that I am SUPER into and makes it "just" an amazing match that everyone should check out and not a lock for my top 100
