Some absolutely wonderful, technically proficient chain wrestling between these two, but Kevin Kelly and Tom Prichard would rather talk about the upcoming Royal Rumble as opposed to calling the match. Saturn gets the better of a shoulder tackle and slides over to Terri for a kiss. I never really got them as a pairing as they have no chemistry together whatsoever. He drops Collyer with a running elbow smash and is up on the turnbuckles flexing his guns. Drop toe hold by Collyer followed by a lariat. Now he’s giving it the double bicep pose, mocking Saturn. Should’ve concentrated on his opponent mind as he telegraphs the backdrop and Saturn with an up kick. Superkick and Terri is on the apron distracting the referee giving Saturn the opportunity to drop a knee to his opponent’s groin. Release overhead belly to belly. He picks Collyer up in an over the shoulder backbreaker and then runs him chest first, upside down, into the turnbuckles. Tiger bomb. Saturn whips his man into the corner, but is met by an elbow to the jaw after he charges in after him. Collyer with a flapjack, although loses his balance on the German suplex. A Northern Lights gets him a near fall though as Saturn is forced to punch him in the ribs to break the hold. Saturn reverses the Irish whip and after a bit of jockeying for position, one Death Valley Driver later this is all over.

 

Only two matches into this ‘C’ show stuff but I’m not regretting it in the slightest as it punctuates the longer matches nicely. The opening 30 seconds of this was some of the best pure wrestling I’ve watched so far in 2001. Collyer is very similar to Donovan Morgan in that he’s not that charismatic, although does try to engage the fans (well once he did!).
