Welcome to My (And Not Sly's) House
Supertape 4
Hosts: Sean Mooney, Lord Alfred Hayes
Commentators: Sean Mooney, Lord Alfred Hayes, Bobby Heenan
This is the final Supertape other than one called Supertape 92 which is Tuesday in Texas plus a few other matches so Im not going to review that one. After this I only have one more Coliseum Video at the moment so youll be free from them for awhile. Anyway, not much to say here as its early 91 so expect stuff from then and late 1990. Lets get to it.
The gimmick here is that Sean is being congratulated for doing a good job on Supertape 4 so he gets to give the master to someone. Theres a cooler for him and gets in the Coliseum Van with a special driver. Before we meet the driver though, BUY OUR ACTION FIGURES!!! The van is a van with a piece of paper on it saying Official Coliseum Video Van. The driver is Alfred Hayes and he says no food or beverages in the van.
Heenan and Perfect say theres no wind so there must not be any tornadoes, including a Texas Tornado, at the moment. Perfect recently got the title back from Tornado so this is match like #48 in their series.
Intercontinental Title: Mr. Perfect vs. Texas Tornado
As Tornado already lost the title his fall into mediocrity would begin very soon. Von Erich jumps him before he even takes his jacket off. And never mind as he takes it off and Perfect throws him to the floor. Tornado Punch on the floor and Perfects selling continues to be awesome. Things finally calm down a bit as Tornado keeps hammering away and throws on a Boston Crab. So the Texan put a Boston ..nah Ive used that too much lately.
Perfect is bumping so much that hes bumping before he even gets hit. Claw Hold goes on but only for a few seconds as Mr. goes to the eyes. Sleeper goes on by Perfect to waste some time. After it gets broken up, Tornados shoulder hits the post which winds up going nowhere as Perfect takes a Tornado punch in the corner. He tries it again on the floor but punches the post by mistake.
Into the post goes his head this time which somehow isnt a DQ but is a nice bit of continuity with their Summerslam match as Perfect hit the post there and said it cost him the match. Perfectplex gets two and a decent pop from the crowd. The Claw on the other hand, gets NOTHING. I was typing and didnt even notice that the hold went on. Perfect pulls the referee in the way which again isnt a DQ. Tornado Punch gets a long two and now its a DQ after he makes the count. No one ever accused 1990 of making a ton of sense.
Rating: D+. Match was kind of a mess here as Tornado was nothing of note at all from the second he lost the title on. The ending made no sense at all as the referee was totally biased if he wanted to count the pin before he was going to DQ Perfect anyway. Just a dark match at a Wrestling Challenge taping though so its not like it mattered.
Tito Santana vs. Koko B. Ware
.why? In MSG here I think in the ultra rare face vs. face match. Heenan apparently flipped Koko off which is another rare thing for this period. Crowd is dead but they make sure to boo a handshake. They hit the mat and Tito gets a SWEET escape from a hold by Koko. The fans are on them already and to be fair the lack of heat between them hurts this a lot.
Koko is the default heel here because Tito is .well hes Tito Santana. Koko wont shake the hand again and they start shoving. Now the crowd is into things a bit more as Ware hammers away a bit and sends him to the floor. Into the post goes Tito as this is far better all of a sudden. Back in and they slug it out with Tito taking over. The taco must have worn off.
Off to the nerve hold as I guess Koko is part Samoan. After some weak neck work, Tito Hulks Up so Koko slaps him a bit. Punches work a bit better as Heenan is far more interested now. Top rope punch misses though and Tito makes his big comeback. After really basic offense the forearm ends this perfectly clean.
Rating: C-. Not bad but the opening part here was really boring. The story wasnt horrible but at the end of the day, its Koko B. Ware trying to be aggressive and evil so how well do you think its going to do? Not horrible or anything but at the same time this didnt work incredibly well and got pretty boring at times.
Al and Sean have issues driving.
We get some clips of wrestlers that have become announcers, namely Monsoon spinning Ali. Hayes is probably a foot shorter than Monsoon.
Piper made the transition also.
We get a clip from a legendarily bad match with Gene/Hulk vs. Fuji/Steele. I never want to see Gene in trunks again.
Savage is the fourth mat to the mike (thats what they call it here) as this is going long. This is more or less a history of his career.
Sean and Hayes have engine trouble.
Undertaker vs. Tugboat
This is the requested match. Really? This is WAY early in Takers career in WWF as Brother Love is his manager still. Battle of the big men here which means they stand around a lot. Taker tries a leap frog but they botch it completely as Tugboat stops running so Taker lands on him. He had the height for it so thats on Tugboat. Tugger takes over and takes the taller man down a few times.
Taker onto offense now as things slow WAY down. Hes slower than he is now with all the injuries and barely ever wrestling. Hard to believe this is only eleven years ago. New School is blocked and a powerslam puts Taker down for no cover. The Sailing Superstar (yes really) misses a corner splash and Taker goes up, walks the rope (no hands) and drops a fist for the pin.
Rating: D+. Another weak match here as there wasnt anything of note here. Taker did what he could but Tugboat was just worthless at this point and no one cared in the slightest about him. Rather boring match all around but some of Takers stuff looked cool, especially with him so young.
Shawn Michaels vs. Crush
Dying days of Demolition here and the Rockers had about a year to go. Power vs. speed here as were in Savannah, Georgia apparently. Shawn is finally like screw this and flips over Crush and hits the basic move that we would know as Sweet Chin Music which doesnt even put Crush down. Today that would make him a main event heel but here it gets no reaction.
Nothing of note here so far as Crush hammers on him with power stuff and Shawn tries to hang on. Torture Rack by Crush and he drops down ala Abyss with Shock Treatment. Bearhug goes on which doesnt last long at all. Body Vice by Crush. Id prefer Fuji Vice but whatever. That eats up plenty of time as were just waiting on Shawn to crank things up.
And here he comes as I guess even he was getting bored just laying there like that. Backbreaker by Crush and he goes up and misses a knee drop. Chop block takes Crush down and the Rockers, ever the nice guys, double team Crush to get the pin as Hayes sounds completely disgusted and rightfully so at that. At least its over.
Rating: C-. WWF was very good at getting guys like Bret and Shawn in these tapes so that we were ready to see them take over. Crush was painfully boring at this point and thankfully was changed almost completely soon after this. Weak match but its always cool to see Shawn as a young guy.
The bumbling idiots cant fix the van.
Mr. Fuji/Orient Express vs. Legion of Doom
We play hide the foreign object for a bit with Fuji and then its off to Kato vs. Animal. Guess who does better in this case. Kato runs away a lot as the crowd is mostly silent here. The LOD throw Tanaka as high as anyone Ive ever seen. This is one of those matches where stuff is kind of happening but nothing is going on if that makes sense. In short, its rather boring indeed.
All LOD so far as the Express hasnt been able to get anything going at all. Hawk sends Kato to the floor and just stands there as he gets back in. Double teaming FINALLY slows down Animal a bit, including some salt into the eyes. Heres Fuji who shoves Animal and leaves. The heel offense ends in about 20 seconds via a double clothesline and its off to Hawk. Crowd is pretty dead here. Doomsday Device ends this dominance quickly.
Rating: D-. Total and complete squash here as I think everyone expected. No point at all in having Fuji out there but they were trying to up the drama from zero to about .00001 or so and it didnt work at all. The Express hardly ever won anything but they would get a bit better, especially against the Rockers. Bad match.
Time for cooking tips with the Bushwhackers. We start with the salad which appears to be nothing but lettuce and goes everywhere. Bad puns follow and its off to mashed potatoes. After nothing happens there its time for vegetables, namely broccoli. Gas jokes ensue. Its as stupid as it sounds. Finally its time for dessert which is walnut surprise cake and of course it winds up on their faces. Apparently were not done yet as we had dessert before the main course: Bushwhacker Buzzard just like from the first Supertape. Cannibalism is implied to FINALLY end this. Total waste of seven minutes.
More Sean and Hayes as its time for a profile on Big Bossman.
Boss Man says well see him against Earthquake, Barbarian and Heenan. I hope its the ball and chain match.
Earthquake vs. Big Bossman
This is just after Summerslam where Bossman was the second for Hogan and became very popular as a result. TON of stalling to start as I think were in Canada here, making Quake the hometown favorite. Well homecountry favorite but you get the point. Yep its the Molson Center, which is where the Montreal Screwjob would occur about 7 years later.
Another battle of the big men here with nothing of note happening in the slightest. Literally were two or three minutes in here and weve had about as many moves. Quake takes over but misses an elbow drop. Boss Man chases Hart around the ring in the most exciting part of the entire match so far. School boy gets two. Quake works on the ribs and we get what we would call a Stinkface.
Big elbow gets two with a foot on the chest. Quake pulls off though and hits an atomic drop. That was such a solid one that it made Boss Man want a tag. Thats either really stupid or great selling. Hayes says were in Toronto but the Molson sign implies otherwise. Enziguri takes Quake down and a set of clotheslines (called chops for some reason by Mooney) gets him tied in the ropes. And never mind as Bravo comes out for the distraction and an elbow gives Quake the win. Tugboat comes out for the save.
Rating: D+. Why in the world would you have Bossman lose on a segment about him? Doesnt that kind of defeat the purpose? Either way, this was just a battle of the big men but you had Boss Man being fast enough to make things work a bit better. Weak match, but for a house show it wasnt horrible.
Bobby Heenan vs. Big Bossman
This was when they were feuding over Heenan running his mouth about Bossmans mother. He says hes sent mom a dozen roses and he has a Hogan wrestling buddy for Bossman. Heenan begs for forgiveness and gets hit in the head with the wrestling buddy. Heenan tries to hit him with the microphone. Bossman hits him with the nightstick a few times and is pinned in seconds.
Haku runs down and that gets him nowhere as Bossman handcuffs them together. Perfect comes down and that fails also.
Big Bossman vs. Barbarian
Toronto again as I guess the Molson thing isnt just in Montreal. Apparently Molson is a beer. Good to know. Bossman sends him to the floor with ease and then does it again as I have a feeling thats going to be a story in this match. After total dominance for about five minutes by Bossman he misses a splash/cross body in the corner and Barbarian puts him on the floor.
Terribly slow paced and flat out dull match here Barbarian somehow moving slower than he usually does if thats possible. And of course we get a bearhug because we havent had one of those yet this match. Big boot puts Bossman down as somehow this has been going on over 8 minutes. Does this sound like something thats gone on that long? Middle rope elbow misses and were both down again.
They slug it out a bit and Bossman of course wins it. He goes for the leg and down goes the Barbarian that is barbaric enough to be a formally trained wrestler in regular gear that hes managed to have designed to look like fur pelts. Top rope cross body by Bossman is rolled through for two. Mooney seems to be like 4 seconds behind for some reason. Sunset flip by Bossman and Barbarian drops down and poses, allowing Bossman to pull him down for the pin. Barbarian lost the same way to Bret in MSG once.
Rating: F+. Weak match to say the least here as it ran 13 minutes and somehow felt longer. NOTHING happened here as the whole match could have been covered in about half the time they had. Terrible match overall and definitely the world one on this tape. At least the guy in the profile didnt lose 2/3.
Post match Haku comes out for the double beatdown. Think theyre burying this guy enough in his profile?
Sean is in a creek somewhere as Hayes finds a bridge.
WWF World Title: Ultimate Warrior vs. Sgt. Slaughter
Warrior is champion here but Slaughter would take it from him in less than three weeks if my dates are right here. The fans chant USA for a guy from Parts Unknown. White belt at the moment for Warrior. Slaughter takes over early on but the power of jingoism takes over as Warrior sends him to the floor with relative ease. Were in Huntsville, Alabama if youre curious.
Back in as Adnan is freaking out. A charge in the corner misses and its Warrior that winds up on the floor now. Another very slow match here but Warrior picks things up by botching a back drop and making it more like a flapjack. It might have been Slaughter but this is against the Warrior. Do you really think I should give him the benefit of the doubt? Slingshot puts Slaughter into the corner and Warrior is in control.
And never mind as we get a double clothesline to put both guys down. Slaughter takes ove with his incredibly basic offense and hooks on the camel clutch even though Warriors feet have been in the ropes the entire time. Naturally we get a false finish as Slaughter thinks he won when the hold is broken for the ropes. He Warriors Up and were done.
Rating: C-. Standard house show main event here which is fine. Not much of a match but then again this was kind of a clash of styles. Slaughter was a great heel but he was far better with his promos than he was in the ring at this point which is understandable. Still though, passable stuff I suppose but nothing of note at all.
The two are lost in the forest now and Hayes leaves as Mooneys jacket is ripped up. And thats it.
Overall Rating: F. This sucked. Early 1991 was a weak time for the company and this is no exception. No Hogan or Savage, no Bret, barely any Shawn. This was just weak all around as they had no idea what they were doing at this point and it was very obvious. Flair coming in would help things tremendously but that wasnt for about 8 months, which were all painful to watch. Terribly boring tape.
