American Heavyweight Champion Chris Adams vs Gorgeous Jimmy Garvin - WCCW 4/2/84

 

The women are out with their men for this straight up championship bout. Garvin likes showing off scientific abilities early on in matches. He also loves yelling "He is going down, tonight, BABY!". Garvin loves using this to set up one-upmanship later on in the match. I think it works on the level that Garvin is the challenger so he starting right into the heat. He is really good at working the arm with a variety of strong arm holds, but he allows Adams to keep the crowd involved into it with cool spots like his bridge out of the armstretcher and his general energy. So it works almost as a shine because the crowd is still able to invest in Adams who can show off his athleticism. Again, just to reiterate, Garvin really worked the arm like a champ. As expected, Adams ended up putting Garvin into double wristlock. Just when it looked Adams would go on a fast break Garvin takes a powder. Garvin yanks the hair to get out of a chinlock, but that was only to set up Adams using his speed to get back into the chinlock. Again, Garvin setting up the face to one-up him and end up back where they started. Garvin has been really strong in these matches as a ring general and a selfless heel. He does get chinlock-y in the match. Garvin misses a kneedrop and this leads to Adams kicking Garvin's knee. I really liked kicking his knee out from under him when he was running the ropes.The finish run was one would expects involves the ladies. Adams is bridging out from under a pin and Precious hooks the leg, but the ref does not count to three. Garvin takes advantage of the distraction for another pinning combination, but Sunshine yanks him off by the hair. More chaos and Adams goes for O'Connor Roll, but Precious blinds him with the spray. Garvin steals the American championship!!! SUNSHINE IS PISSED! Sunshine attacks Precious again.Good match to set up some rematches. Garvin has a strong grasp on heel psychology even if he can be kinda boring sometimes. Adams is a fun good-looking, athletic babyface. I look forward to see what he can do against someone else besides Garvin. ***
