Buddy Rose, Butch Miller & Luke Williams vs. Dutch Savage, Rick Martel & Roddy Piper

[6.0] "It's almost bottom-floor great levels from everything in Portland at this time, something like this feels a little lower stakes and less effort coming off the back of some fantastic title matches and yet it feels effortless how they work up the crowd. Some great heel stooging before the match and between the falls, Rose swinging the New Zealand flag and it flying off the pole was so good. Dutch Savage gets his arm posted for a countout in the first which leads into the heels working his arm in the second, Piper gets the big hot tag and puts on a sleeper for the second, finish to the third was super clever as Piper tries to take the mask off Rose but with Sandy Barr distracted by everyone at ringside brawling Butch nails Piper with the flag pole and Rose gets the fall. Think this is the last Dutch Savage match on Portland tape too, will miss seeing him even if he wasn't as electrifying as the rest of Portland's babyfaces."

[7.0] "This one was a step down from the previous matches in the feud for me. The action in the ring was still good, though! But it might not have been up to the standards of the previous ones, and Dutch Savage didn't really end up inspiring me, here. The nationalism storyline of the match was also pretty eyeroll-worthy, with it being framed as America vs New Zealand for some reason, despite each team having the same number of Americans (one). The finish is pretty fun, though, with Piper getting hit with the flag (and the ref missing it), leading to a tainted win for the heels and setting up a continuation of the feud, with the only hitch being a short promo from Savage that starts to cross the line over into xenophobia."

[8.0] "This is so great - Team USA with two Canadians vs Team New Zealand - great antics from the heel to antagonize the crowd - Martel is so over ! They didn't need to work hard, the crowd is wild for the babyfaces !"
