If I'm not mistaken, this was the first match to get the 5 Star rating from Meltzer.
Reality TV is faker than "fake" wrestling!

I KNEW this had to be the one; I have Highspots' the Best of the Dynamite Kid in Japan DVD and those two totally paved the way for my absolute favorite style of wrestling. RVD & Lynn can say that they inspired the X Division; but Dynamite & Tiger Mask invented the Jr. style that inspired RVD & Lynns. GREAT stuff....
