JHawk 0 Report post Posted February 25, 2007 Bret Hart vs. Ted Dibiase - 12/91 - Criminally underrated I'm glad somebody else remembers that one. I'm surprised the two Hogan-Flair matches are getting so much love, as they really aren't that special aside from the novelty at the time (particularly when one of them was at the same show as the Hart-DiBiase match mentioned here).

Coffin Surfer 0 Report post Posted February 25, 2007 Bret Hart vs. Ted Dibiase - 12/91 - Criminally underrated I'm glad somebody else remembers that one. I'm surprised the two Hogan-Flair matches are getting so much love, as they really aren't that special aside from the novelty at the time (particularly when one of them was at the same show as the Hart-DiBiase match mentioned here). Well I'm surprised the Ted/Bret match is getting any love. As I recall, Hart doesn't play a very good foil to Ted's opening stooge act. Ted doesn't do anything interesting with Bret's control offense, but the peril that follows is pretty decent though as Bret gets to bump around a little and Sherri gets to have fun. The finishing run is just Bret leading Ted through an extended run of his spots, the momentum, intentisty, and crowd heat dying about half way through the sequence. The Plancha is cool, but the match is boring and disappointing as hell in my book. Both Hogan/Flair matches are tons of fun with great, urgent performances from both guys, with a few clever mix ups from their formulas. Far more than novelty matches. I'm not sure how anybody can't enjoy a scared Flair struggling to survive and find an answer to a pissed off, raging Hogan but hey, to each their own. Much better than their god awful Bash 94 mess at the very least. EDIT- Oh I forgot Savage/Adonis vs. Tino/Bruno Cage from 85 or 86 I believe. Clipped but what's here is gold. Tino bleeding buckets, Adonis being a dick, with Savage bumping his ass off for Bruno. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Plancha is cool, but the match is boring and disappointing as hell in my book. Can't believe I missed this, my apologies for the late reply. Harts young lion style he adopted after going singles meshes really well with Teds veteran heel tactics. The first exchange is relatively slow but for a reason. Hart gets frustrated with Dibiase stalling and going to the outside to consult Sherri. Thinking he's safe, Hart comes from the blindside and starts attacking him furiously and when back in the ring hits a huge atomic drop (excellently sold by Ted) and waves him goodbye. Hart then wears him down and the build up to Dibiase's big counters that turn the matches strides are excellent, such as the big guillotine drop on the ropes. After Brets next comeback when he smashes Ted into the turnbuckle but endes up doing a HUGE front turnbuckle and Sherri rings the bell, the pace is relentless. I can't see much wrong with it at all besides the ending. I understand there may be a bit too much ground work and slower action for some tastes but Hart works great against Dibiase and I'd rate this match better than the one on Brets DVD to be honest.

Coffin Surfer 0 Report post Posted April 1, 2007 "Can't believe I missed this, my apologies for the late reply. Harts young lion style he adopted after going singles meshes really well with Teds veteran heel tactics. " Hart playing a young lion? Eh.... I disagree, they came off as terrible opponents for each other. Ted needs someone that can beat the crap out of him and let him bump and stooge to be effective (see Duggan or Warrior/Hogan types), Bret plays to his style for the one sequence you described(though not very convincingly) before grounding one of the fed's best bumpers and personalities with his match. Bret needs someone that can work out of his holds and stooge to keep his holds interesting(see Henning, Owen, and even Piper), Ted just lays around until it's time to hit the ropes. They just don't compliment each other as workers here, nor do they look interested in doing so; just two workers taking turns doing their thing. "Hart then wears him down and the build up to Dibiase's big counters that turn the matches strides are excellent, such as the big guillotine drop on the ropes. After Brets next comeback when he smashes Ted into the turnbuckle but endes up doing a HUGE front turnbuckle and Sherri rings the bell, the pace is relentless." Like I said things are pretty decent when Bret works in a few of his bumps. Relentless pace? Eh.....not sure how to respond to that one. Oddly enough, Sherri is the MVP of the match. The most effective worker by far. "I can't see much wrong with it at all besides the ending. " The Huge Plancha countout!? That's about the only thing worthwhile to come from the match. "I understand there may be a bit too much ground work and slower action for some tastes" Change to lazy ground work and you'll have a point. Baba/Race (far slower and less capable workers) have made very slow ground sequences beyond interesting by you know....actually doing something aside from laying around until it's rope running time.
