Odd squash of the day: Lanny Poffo vs Rick Zarda

Not terrible.  Nothing botched.  Nothing funny.  Just a very, very odd two minute match...

Nothing that odd about it to me, aside from Zarda not really selling anything.

    This match appears to have been a hugely influential on the career Ezekiel Jackson.

    Actually, something did seem off to me. That spot where they were just kind of looking at each other before Zarda hit the dropkick was kinda WTF, as was those fucked up looking body slams.


    Gee, I wonder if the 'Miser' got his match against Apache Lou?
    smh

    Did they have enough time for that Miser/Apache Joe match?

    This match was body slam-tastic.

    I love how The Miser said he was "depriving (him) myself of the luxuries of life" to train for the match. He's a fuckin' miser! He would be doing that anyway!

    And what kind of a miser would be dressed like a luchadore, anyway?

    That bingo hall they are in makes the impact zone look like msg!

    That'd be an insult to bingo halls -- I've never seen a bingo hall with less than a few hundred people in it.

    Still though, I kinda miss these wrestling studio shows.

    These ICW matches look like actual sporting contests. If fed a steady diet of this kind of wrestling, I could see myself believing that professional wrestling was legitimate.

    It does seem like an overly gaudy outfit. Any true miser would be in much more economical gear.

    Maybe it was second hand. Stolen out of Mil Mascaras' trash.
