[Geotexify]

7:08 Cattle Mutalation!

[mdhotstuff]

wow 8 bucks.. you got a hell of a bargain

[mdhotstuff]

I flagged the insulting spam..... this is a great match.. After years of the Horsemen being the gang... this was a nice change of events.... 

[DefLeppardVanHalen]

The match aired on January 12, 1990.

[nwojunkie]

Arn Anderson should be in the HOF and in the next DLC for WWE All Stars.

[Jasonmcintyre2007]

Two of my favorite wrestlers (NOT entertainers!) in the same ring. 

[jamesgville]

pause at 1:29 that red headed kid in the second row with the green sweater is me ;) That ticket at the Ga Mountain Center was 8 bucks. WOW

[dkennedy31326]

@jamesgville i saw this same main event at the savannah civic center

[dkennedy31326]

@jamesgville how old are you now cuz i saw it at about the same age. i'm 29 now.

[danyonly]

Haha, "The Oriental Man" JR you cad!!

[michaelisajerk]

@danyonly I'm Asian, and I'll give JR a bye on that one. He's from the south, and it was the 80s. Today, he knows better.

[danyonly]

@michaelisajerk Yeah, I can understand that. Sometimes it is too much though. Calling a foreign object an "international Object" because you don't want to hurt people's feelings. Come on. Again, I agree with you though, "Oriental" is not proper.

[michaelisajerk]

@danyonly I'm sure Turner fined him for it.

[jackiedegracia]

@danyonly

These days it's always too much. I want All in the Family back. I miss Archie Bunker. I miss the little racist kid from Bad News Bears. Lighten up people. If it's too much for you to handle, go some place like Libya or China and tell them to have respect for other ethnicities and watch as they laugh in your face & beat the shit out of you while calling you "honky lips". Only in America is where this hypersensitive retardation is embraced, and what's the result? Still hate each other.

[jackiedegracia]

@michaelisajerk

"Today he knows better"...

God I hate all of you PC pieces of shit. You have made everything lame.

What's wrong with Oriental? And I've been to Japan, they don't show us fucking GAIJIN ANY respect. And that's alright! I'd rather deal with racism than American hypersensitivity. Fuck, I might move there, I can't stand this shit anymore. Asians aren't too bad about it, but everyone else can fucking die. PC whites, hypocritical blacks and whoever else. Keel the fuck over already

[michaelisajerk]

@jackiedegracia Shut up cracker

[michaelisajerk]

@jackiedegracia Why should anyone give your stupid ass respect?

[dasteelers75]

Arn was good, but he can't hold Muta's jock. The Great Muta was over with the fans but unfortunately not with the b.s backstage.

[danyonly]

@dasteelers75 Wow, how wrong. 1st, I am a HUGE Muta fan, and happen to be a great Steelers fan as well, but I have to disagree. Arn was one of the best wrestlers ever. Muta was tremendous, but to say Arn "can't hold Muta's jock" is a little much.

[eslubin]

muta moves like an animal, man. a lizard or rat

[eslubin]

awesome match so far

[mark79]

Whoever gave the dislike must like WWE "wrestling".

[Edgehead10075]

WWE wrestling won. WCW lost and doesn't exist anymore. Bwahahahahahahaha!

[RealbillyTV]

It's great hearing Jim Ross knock the WWE back then. Too bad he had to go there.

[Edgehead10075]

WWE kicked WCW's sorry ass. Get over it.

[RealbillyTV]

@Edgehead10075 No main event at Wrestlemania could even begin to rival a mid card match of NWA during this time period. John Cena, Edge, Randy Orton, are you kidding me ?? They have no personality and their matches have no storytelling whatsoever. They are Dorrito salesmen not wrestlers. Corporate America destroyed the NWA.

[Edgehead10075]

Cena and Edge have no personality? I'm sorry, but I have to disagree with that.

Also, the main event of WrestleMania in 1990 between the Ultimate Warrior and Hulk Hogan was damn good.

[RealbillyTV]

@Edgehead10075 I'm sorry but I was never a fan of WWF/WWE. It was just too cartoonish for me and still is.

[grate4life]

@RealbillyTV no wwe is not cartoonish. well actually it is if you watch only the matches who involve hornswoggle, but great talents like alberto del rio, daniel bryan, and cm punk are no where near what you described, dont single out all of those great talents you just did.

[Edgehead10075]

He didn't "have" to go there. He chose to be there.

[booniedigful]

Cornette is too funny

[dan1701]

Nwa, Jim Cornette, and TBS... good times.....

[cub35guy]

Tryin to find the vid of Arn getting sprayed with mist and then PILEDRIVED! he rolls out of the ring in a heap. His hairy chest x-posed. Anyone know if that's on youtube? can't seem to find it.

[cbpointblank]

Holy shit... Muta busted out Cattle Mutilation at 7:00.

[cbpointblank]

LOL @ JR calling Muta "the Oriental man".

[eddiechicago]

Muta also used Cattle Mutilation v. Sting @ Starcade 89

[gtz1975]

20 years ago!

[kingkongpingpongdong]

AA is a rather fit man!

[BigHippiePat]

Cattle Mutilation by the Great Muta at 7:08. I wonder if that's where Bryan Danielson got the move from.

[Superplex1001]

Wow, can't believe he used that Move.

[BigHippiePat]

Yeah thay was awesome.

[silverbeast75]

why are they being so damn condisending towrds muta???

[toodarkmark]

His last match of his tour in NWA.

[giantrobot9000]

Two of my favorites right here. Great execution, and intensity. Muta was ahead of his time, also.

[miggy25]

classic encounter....i miss the days when the World TV title meant something....Muta was so underused by the NWA/WCW in '89-'90

[toodarkmark]

He was super utilized in 89-90 by the NWA. He had programs with Sting, Ric Flair, main evented PPVs, was on TV every week getting put over. Sooooo... dont know what you mean.

[miggy25]

the feud with Sting was cut far too short...it should've continued for MUCH longer than it did--those two just had great in-ring chemistry.....Muta also should've done more than just win the TV title for a few months....he shoulda been getting US title matches at least....NWA made good use out of Muta for about 6-8 months (until the first half of '90) when he should've been a big player in that company for much longer...that's what I meant

[JuliusC1973]

@miggy25 I think you would have to blame that on NWA Booking. Yes, the NWA could have done more with Muta in the United States. An NWU United States Champoionship reign and an NWA World Heavyweight Title reign should have been in the cards. As great as the NWA was already drawing in Japan, how well would they have drawn with the Great Muta as the NWA Wold Heavyweight TChampion>

[Germany1111]

@JuliusC1973 He did win the WHC, in1993.

[eggheadvogue]

Hehe, cattle mutilation in the last minute. . .

[nykayfabe]

Everything Muta did looked...great. Notice when he gets suplexed how he keeps kicking his legs to fight it. All the workers today make it obvious that they're cooperating.

[RawwestHide]

which is abosultely why Muta is one of the only Japanese guys to become successful in America. Too bad he's a lot lazier in his Japanese matches, IMO.

[silverbeast75]

well you got to expect that im mean hes pretty old these days

[MantonioBanderas]

Nice racist comment about all Oriental men being ugly, JR...

[EmpireWF]

thanks, great match

[Lionheart218]

Awesome comment from Cornette:

"He looks like his face was set on fire and put out with an axe."

[Hawkee316]

Again thank you for posting this match I reall really appericate this.
