[1983-09-09-Houston Wrestling] Andre the Giant & Jim Duggan vs Missing Link & Kamala

[shoe]

This really is a great match to upload for Thanksgiving. Andre teaming up with the local babyface always seems special. I've always been a mark for Devestation Inc. So this has the potential to be a barn burner.

 

We start out with a wild fight. Missing Link takes a bump like he was shot out of a cannon. It settles down and we have some fun with Kamala refusing to enter the ring if Andre is in . So it becomes Duggan and Link. Link is bumping big for Duggan and showing plenty of ass to make Duggan look great. Finally we get Andre and Kamala and the crowd erupts. Then these guys are fighting and Kamala is showing tons of agression or savagery. I really enjoyed the match up until this point. Once Andre went into FIP it was pretty lack luster.Then the match dragged a bit. You really need to be nasty and or incredibily smart to make it work. Once we went down the finishing run It got me back with the slamming of Kamala. Still the good outweighs the bad. 2 1/2*

Did Link and Kamala make a single legitimate tag during this? lol Haven't seen, but I imagine there's a team who don't understand what a tag is.

Yes they made legit tags.

Is There a guy who got more over based upon his look and (facials) expressions than Kamala....seems he just had a knack for it.

And a complete dedication to his character.
