La Gran Guerrera I: Carlos Colon, Invader I, Bruiser Brody, Dutch Mantell & TNT vs Abdullah the Butcher, Hercules Ayala, Chicky Starr, Kareem Muhammad & Grizzly Boone 12/12/87 WWC
So here are the rules of this match: There are two cages side by side like War Games. Everyone starts at once. The objective is to handcuff your opponents to the cage. First team to handcuff all of their opponents wins. The winning team then gets to attack their handcuffed opponents for 5 minutes.
So this is basically Puerto Rican War Games. Do I even need to say anything else? Violent bloody violence with thousands of fans going insane. This is awesome.

2nd
This is a match where the result is almost better than the match itself. The opening of this is a bit like a battle royal, guys lean against the ropes and punch eachother. Invader #1 is by far the most enthusiastic guy here, throwing hands and really punting Chicky in the balls with a vengeance, while Colon is the one who pops the crowd. The handcuffing stuff doesn't look great altough I dig that Abby has forearms too huge to be handcuffed easily. It comes down to Iron Sheikh vs. Colon and Sheikh is really hammering Colons forehead with his fist. The match feels almost tame for Puerto Rico standards but after the match Sheik tries mutilating Colon with the belt and all the heels beat on the handcuffed faces. I'll say that Rip Rogers is absolutely hilarious on commentary yelling about Domingo Robles.

Third! Jetlag touched one the major points, I was expecting more violence and I was also kind of surprised by the ending and how strong they put over the Iron Sheik. I also would endorse Rip Rogers on commentary, he is pretty great.
