I’ve been chewing on this one for a bit and think that yes, this deserves a nomination and has a good shot at my list. Kamala is presented as a more dangerous and serious threat than is typical, going after Invader’s cut with relish. Invader 1’s selling is great, and his efforts to fight back are engaging, but futile. Kamala’s repeated overhand chops are presented as hard punishing blows that ultimately put Invader down for good.
After the finish, the ref is trying to get Kamala away from Invader and back to the dressing room and I thought that he could have used Gary Hart or someone there to act as the voice of reason after he had done his work in such vicious fashion. But then I realized thinking about this detail spoke to the effectiveness of the storytelling here overall.
It’s ten minutes of your time and it is awesome.

These are two guys that at no point in history I would’ve stopped to watch a match from but lately I’ve found so many great matches from either guy and 10 minutes it’s the perfect time. I’ll give this a shot.

I love this match but can't quite see myself ever voting for it unless I put it at 99 or 100 or something like that. It's awesome. Super awesome. Like 5 minutes of Kamala just relentlessly bashing Invader in the head over & over again & Invader bleeding a gusher & selling like crazy. And Invader is maybe the best seller in the history of wrestling. So this is a fucking blast. Would almost certainly make a top 100 favorites. Glad to see it nominated.
