Re: Your 5 Star Match Lists
AJPW 8/31/1983
The Funks vs Stan Hansen & Terry Gordy
When you are getting drowned in streamers and getting cheered on by the often silent Japanese crowds, you know you are over. This is Terry Funk's original retirement match. They tease his involvement in the match, by building up a hot tag between Dory and Terry. When Terry gets tagged in the crowd erupts. Terry gets beat down pretty bad and he sells his leg perfectly. Another hot tag to Dory and carnage breaks out. Terry ninja's his way back into the match and hits a top rope sunset flip on Gordy for the win. Hansen and Gordy aren't finished yet. They beat down The Funks until the locker room comes out and stops Hansen and Gordy. A bloody Funk then cuts his infamous 'Forever' promo. The atmosphere, ring action and post match stuff gives this match the 5 star treatment.
