The fire death match the year before is the most bizarre disaster that I can't stop rewatching.
This was some crazy shit to try and comprehend in the Apter mags when the only wrestling show I saw regularly had DOINK as a star.
As long as one worked heel I imagine it would work well. Backlund spent 1983 doing these mat exchange matches, and I would think Robinson would excel at that kind of work.
Curious if this was a major styles clash? Seems to me it would be so.
