Dory Funk Jr. & Terry Funk vs. Jim Brunzell & Nick Bockwinkel

[6.0] "A solid tag team match. Wouldn't rank this as one of the greatest of the year, but a **3/4 is fine enough."

[8.0] "This has some really good moments without anything really standing out too much. It is smartly worked by Bock and Brunzell, who I guess were in the spot of "making up the numbers" during the tournament as AWA's representatives. They work de facto heel, and work a very solid gameplan cutting the ring in half, first with a headlock and later with the figure-four. Structurally, you can't fault it. This was left off the AJPW set, which suggests that the committee didn't like it. I can sort of see in the overall context of All Japan in the 1980s that a match like this wouldn't stand out, but it was better than quite a few matches that did make the set. More of a tactical war than an all-action match, but I thought it was quite compelling. I'd like to see Bock vs. Dory one on one (not Slamboree 93)."

[7.0] "Solid work from both teams, nice work on the limbs by the heels, the ending feels kind of sudden and is anti climactic though"

[6.0] "Lightly clipped. This is a good little match that aims to tell a story in 15 minutes and sinks that basket, with solid pacing and structure, but honestly if the schedule and all had allowed for it this really could? ve been a MOTYC. But I really like what we got. Nice finish, in which Dory grabs that beautiful Brunzell dropkick for a Boston crab, and then counters a sunset flip cutback into a sunset flip of his own for the pinfall. ***Œ"
