Well I agree with both of you. The match from Iraq was really bad. However, I thought their US title tourny finals match at Vengeance 2003 was really good.
In all fairness to both guys, it's gotta be close to impossible to put on a true ****+ match in 90-100 degree heat on a mat that must have been scorching in Iraq. Granted, I don't remember the match very well but I'm sure it was better than Rikishi/Rhyno or whatever else was on the show.
