[2000-03-22-WCW-Thunder] 3 Count vs Jung Dragons


Loss

Recommended Posts

One of the bright spots of 2000 WCW has finally arrived. The triple somersault plancha was awesome just as a visual. If this was the WWF, that would have been in highlight packages for the rest of the year. WCW will never so much as acknowledge it after five seconds. I loved all 3:30 of the match, but WCW being hellbent on not giving their good workers ring time is starting to get old.

Really excellent 3 minutes of action. This match even got Bobby to shut up about whatever and take notice. The backdrop combo moves of 3 Count were especially impressive. Jung Dragons stealing their dance mats at the end at least shows a glimmer of storyline development. Fun stuff. **1/2

Noble with a real nice headscissors on Helms who rolls to the floor. He goes for a dive out on to him but is cut off with a leg lariat from Moore. Yang with a dropkick to the back, Karagias with a springboard crossbody on Yang, and finally Kaz with a missile dropkick to Evan resulting in all three members of 3 Count ending up on the outside. Triple flip dive over the top rope onto them by the Dragons. Helms with a superkick but Moore misses the twisting moonsault. Shannon then takes a great bump off a Kaz back heel kick. Moore and Helms with a combination suplex/backbreaker where they drop Hayashi over Shane’s knee. Noble takes a swing at Karagias who ducks, picks him up and drops him with a leg drop onto his own partner. Evan with a press slam and Hayashi goes face first to the canvas. Irish whip reversal and an awesome wheelbarrow release German from Kaz. Yang goes all Bruce Lee on 3 Count and hurls Karagias over the top rope to the outside. A drop toe hold from Shannon gets Hayashi out of there and Evan with a powerslam to Noble on the arena floor. Yang with a one footed dropkick to Moore but Helms nails him from behind. Shannon sits him on the turnbuckle, top rope Frankensteiner, Shane with the frog splash and 3 Count come out on top. They’re about to perform post-match, triple dropkick from the Dragons sends them flying out the ring and they run off with their dance mats.

 

This only went four minutes but was fantastic. An innovative non-stop sprint from start to finish. Loved the opening sequence that led to the triple flip dive. Great bumping throughout and the suplex, backbreaker, leg drop was tremendous. Everyone bought it and even Evan Karagias looked good here and didn’t come across as the weak link in his trio. A joy to watch!
