World Of Sport - Fit Finlay vs Danny Collins

86-02-01

A mismatch in Finlays favor, but not as one sided as you'd think.

PS. Thanks to paulypud for the date.

Finlay looks like an 80's Irish street pimp in that hat, 5 stars!

any more of Danny or Greg Valentine or Ian Macgregor?

Nice mismatch. Danny takes a good beating through most of the match -- and suffers nicely for us. That brutal traps claw after 7:40 leaves the kid writhing in pain, with his pecs wide open and vulnerable.

That hat is stylin!

The first ever wrestling match i saw was Fit Finlay vs Danny Collins on a Mick Mcmanus world of wrestling VHS tape.

Finlay says fresh meat...

[AlexDCl]

I don't think he appreciated catchweight contests much.

@japanpro1 Your comment strikes a chord with me: I too watched this 20 or so years ago, and remember it well. Danny Collins was always good to watch, from his earliest days as a teenage pro wrestler. Finlay brought a particular blend of showmanship (mean heel with real wrestling ability) to the ring which I always enjoyed, again from his very early days.

Finlay looks like eddie guererro.

i watched this match nearly 20 years ago. danny was still growing but both his physique and performnce show he would become one of the most exciting most popular wrestlers. vintage finlay. danny sells the relentless punishment beautifully. quintessential classic storyline.
