Jack grabs the 2nd fall with a figure four at 10 mins into the 2nd |
This went to an hour draw when time ran out. The first 40 minutes were all mat wrestling. And a lot of it could be missed because they were clearly doing a lot of rest holds and never looked like they were trying to finish the match. After the first fall, they picked things up and looked like they were going for it, but it was a bit too late. There wasn't a ton of great story here and a lot of it was just killing time. It wasn't that bad though despite that and for the most part, they worked a pretty safe match. It could have been better, but it could have been a lot worse and I think this match is a good example just of how much times have changed and how the purpose of matches have really changed. There's worse 60 minutes out there, but I wouldn't watch this one again.
