Lightning round

By Scott Keith on 3 October 2014

Having seen the previous lightning round for under-rated workers etc, can you find any half-decent matches around this collection of early 90's WWF dross?

Skip
Mantaur (hint: no)
Ahmed Johnson
Yokozuna
Marty Jannetty
The Smokin' Gunns
Adam Bomb (one of my fave wacky characters)
Tatanka
"Barmy" Bob Backlund

Skip: Barry Horowitz at Summerslam 95.

Mantaur: Fuck no.

Ahmed: Goldust at King of the Ring 96, and he had a legendary match with a pre-Bradshaw John Hawk in Texas that flirted with ****.

Yokozuna: Randy Savage's last WWF title shot on RAW. Great drama.

Marty Jannetty: Aside from the **** classic with Shawn on RAW? And the **** tag title switch with the Quebecers in early 94? And a bunch of other great matches he had?

Smokin' Gunns: They had a bunch of decent matches on RAW. The tag title match against Kid & Holly was pretty good in particular.

Adam Bomb: He had a good one with (surprise surprise) Shawn Michaels in early 95 on Superstars.

Tatanka: The match against Luger at Summerslam was OK.

Backlund: His initial heel turn match against Bret was a near-classic **** affair.
