Andre The Giant vs. The Ultimate Warrior

[5.0] "Have I gone insane? Yeah this isn't a great match but it was fine. Obviously Andre can't do much here and neither can warrior but they did fine they filled it with submission spots and overall they got the job done. I will say a bear hug on Andre is extremely stupid"

[2.0] "Oof, yeah this was rough. Obviously at this point Andre couldn't do much, and Warrior was hardly the adversary to drag something decent out of him. Seriously, wtf was Warrior thinking in attempting a bear hug on Andre? And the fact that they also worked that spot for a good 30 seconds to a minute. To his credit, Andre did take one bump to the floor but it sure took a way for him to get back up to his feet and into the ring. This was just a mess and the cheap finish didn't really do anything for anyone. *"

[3.0] "There's a decent level of spectacle to this match which makes it at the very least visually interesting. This however does little to compensate for how poor this match is, slow tempo, plenty of rest holds and just a general sluggishness throughout."

[5.0] "I enjoyed most of the match but the end left me disappointed but then again it makes sense since Andre didnt like Warrior from what i have heard. Overall it was ok"

[6.0] "I think this is the most I've ever disagreed with a Cagematch rating. Sure this match wasn't filled with exciting manoeuvres but it was a perfectly good match between two great characters of the era. Andre is really a wrestling genius in my book. He could really make the most out of his own physical limitations and his opponent."

[4.0] "This was no where near as bad as its reputation suggests it will be. I despise Warrior and don't have an awful lot of time for Andre and his weird looking teeth so was looking forward to hating on this but it was ok. Some of it was shit but its Warrior and Andre so of course it is. No idea why Andre got DQ'd though, it was Warrior using the foreign object (Heenan) to attack Andre."

[1.0] "Rough night at the office, going poorly enough that even the live crowd seemingly loses interest. Poor Andre is immobile by this point, and Warrior proves himself entirely unable to work around that, creating a clunky, ugly match that's miles too long. This matchmaking is terribly ill-advised to begin with, but let alone with almost eight minutes at their disposal. 1/4*"

[1.0] "This match sucked. I felt bad for Andre getting Warrior thrown at him here. It's crazy to think that within like half a year the Ultimate Warrior is the World champion, because in 1989 when he isn't working with like Rick Rude he has fucking sucked. Tough watch here."

[3.0] "The battel of the bear hugs! Ever since the release of the "Self-Destruction of the Ultimate Warrior" DVD release, it's become popular to bash The Ultimate Warrior. But the WWE's rewriting of history will not take away my childhood thoughts about how much I loved the guy back then. That said, this match wasn't very good. Andre was a few months away from leaving WWF after WrestleMania 6 and could barely fall to the ground, much less perform anything resembling wrestling moves. But these comments below all hate on the Warrior like Andre was hitting tope suicidas in this match or something. It wasn't good, but it was the lack of chemistry between both guys that brought it down."

[2.0] "If I'm being honest, this match isn't as horrible as it's reputation says. Although, if I'm again being honest, it's not exactly a good match either. The match is pretty slow (with long bearhug and choke spots taking up most of the match's runtime), there's some botches (Warrior going for a splash in the corner, only to slip off of Andre), it ends in a bizzare DQ finish, and you can count the variety of moves being performed in the whole match on one hand (choke, punch, bearhug, kick, blabla). However, there's some hard hitting strikes, some okay spots (Warrior shoving Andre against ropes), and there's good commentary by Ventura and McMahon. Again, not really a good match, but considering the competitors involved, I expected worse"

[1.0] "I don't know what they were thinking with this match. Andre could hardly go anymore, and Warrior was way too limited to ring general something good out of him. They ended up having to fill the entire thing with chokes, because at least that way Warrior could hold Andre up."

[0.0] "A broken down and obviously hurting Andre the Giant takes on Ultimate Warrior, who makes Andre look like '90s Shawn Michaels. This was just depressing to watch. I've seen matches that were far worse but seeing a great like Andre in such a sorry state was just sad."

[4.0] "31/10/89 WWF. I think I'm the only person who half enjoyed this match. Andre is obviously hurting, but he used is limitations very well in this match, even with Warrior botching a few spots, they still managed to keep it high tempo and run out a half decent match. Defo not as cringey as most Warrior matches or Andre's of this time period. 4*"

[2.0] "This was about as good as you could expect from these two guys. Andre is too broken down at this point to do much else than a bear hug where he can basically lean on somebody to keep himself standing. I get giving Andre the tag belts as a thank you moment, but seriously, they could have picked somebody who could still move reasonably well in the ring!"

[0.0] "What in the living hell did I just witness? This was piss poor as piss poor can piss. The worst SNME match ever and one of the worst professional wrestling matches ever. A complete embarrassment. Get outta here. [DUD]"

[1.0] "It was last years of Andre's career, he was no longer able to show decent matches, especially with such mediocre opponents. Many of matches between Andre and the Ultimate Warrior were squashes that lasted no more than a minute. And it would be much better if this one was short too, because it was bad from start to DQ finish, which was perhaps even worse"

[0.0] "Choking, choking, and more choking. There, I just described this match. It's absolutely awful, André could barely stand up without having to use the ropes for assistance, and Warrior was far from being the best wrestler in the world to carry him to something good, or even watchable for that matter. Whoever thought having this go eight minutes clearly forgot to take his meds that day. And to make things even better, it ended in a DQ. Absolutely terrible. [DUD]"

[2.0] "Warrior stank enough as it was without having to try and have a match with the immobile Andre. Basically the entire match consisted of bear hugs then a bizarre DQ. Garbage stuff, really can't see what Vince saw in Warrior besides a few muscles."

[1.0] "This match was absolutely awful all along. Andre's selling was atrocious, there are a few good moves unfortunately, and Ultimate Warrior is just one of the worst wrestlers of this era. The finish is overbooked and atrocious. Everything was very bad in this contest. 0. 5 stars."

[1.0] "Yup, this one sucked, but I don't think you'd be expecting a classic here. Andre wasn't really capable of doing much anymore and Warrior wasn't the sort of opponent to pull something decent out in this situation. I guess I'll give it a point due to the sort of freak show appeal this has, but there was nothing you need to see here."

[2.0] "Not so much a fan of this one. Warrior was the last person who should have been tasked with having a singles match with Andre around this time. Because he's not a good wrestler. Just can't get into this one."
