WCW Monday Nitro 2/24/1997 - Ultimo Dragon vs Dean Malenko

WCW Monday Nitro 2/24/1997 - Ultimo Dragon vs Dean Malenko












The finish


Ultimo Dragon won via DQ when Dean Malenko was DQ'd for choking him past the 5 count. Odd finish, but they were pushing that Dean had snapped and was angry about events from the previous night as Dean was wrestling like a heel all match. Good match as you would expect. They progressed from technical wrestling early on with counters to bigger moves in the middle and then nearfalls at the end before Dean got DQ'd. I really liked the Ultimo hurricanrana out of the powerbomb, Dean's german off of Ultimo's handspring and the last nearfall.
