THE TOURNAMENT TO END ALL TOURNAMENTS: Brackets XXI-XXIV, Third Round (Matches 581-588)
BRACKET XXI, Third Round (Matches 581 & 582):
Wow. Tough month for Hernandez. Loses his gig with TNA, now he loses in the Third Round of this tournament. At least he's going out to a guy who main evented Wrestlemania.
This might've been fun. Andre still gets the win, though. Bulldozin' a bulldozer.
In a completely surreal turn of events, Pat O'Connor throws The Berzerker out of the ring to get counted out! (Which is what The Berzerker did to his opponents. Dude, it's not as cool when you have to explain it.)
Whoever loses, a legend will fall. And this time, it's Mr. Perfect. Kiniski was one of the greatest heel champions of all time; even Mr. Perfect wouldn't be able to stand up to the man who came within an eyelash of winning all three major world titles in the 1960's (against the men who had a stranglehold on them, no less).
Ice Train need to prepare for a Haas-tyle takeover, son. Ain't no Steven Segal to save your bitch ass this time.
This. Is. A tough one. Two of the most legendary wrestlers of all time going head to head. This hurts me all the way down to my very childhood, but Verne Gagne's got to fucking win this match. He WAS the AWA, and the AWA was a leg in the wrestling tripod for thirty years. But Jake would give ol' Verne a run for his money. Have no doubt. He would get within an inch of beating the legend, but one last uncanny burst of mat skills gets Roberts pinned in a roll-up. A sweat-drenched, knock-down, drag out in 33:35.
BRACKET XXIV, Third Round (Matches 587 & 588):
Knowing Haku, does it SURPRISE you he cannot be stopped by a wall?
