WCW Monday Nitro 8/4/1997 - Wrath vs The Barbarian

WCW Monday Nitro 8/4/1997 - Wrath vs The Barbarian

This match sounds like a cool kaiju or adventure movie.


















Wrath got the win here with a Death Sentence, which is kind oh like a Rock Bottom only if you hook your arms around the guy. He caught Barbarian off the top with it and it didn't look that great as with taller wrestlers, they have trouble bending down for stuff like that. The match wasn't a classic, but it was a perfectly fine big man throwaway match, though it could have been a lot more. I liked that they remembered the "don't headbutt a Samoan" trope and Wrath's flying clothesline from the top looked good. Meng came down after to stare down Wrath and keep him off Barb.
