“Will he get him now? YES HE DOES!”
By Scott Keith on 18 October 2021
Hi Scott, we're coming up on the 30th anniversary of Dustin Rhodes and Ricky Steamboat vs The Enforcers from Clash of Champions 17 I believe it was in 1991. And it's still probably the greatest “classic formula” tag team match I've ever seen. In terms of an angle payoff, I have it ranked right there with HTM-Warrior in terms of execution. And the match, it's perfect…Steamboat's selling, cutting the ring off and the switching by Arn and Larry (not to mention their awesome selling), and Dustin finding his groove as a hot tag guy, it's an awesome piece of business.
Where does it rank on your list of all time favorites?
Quite high. I’ve watched it a lot of times and it was really a moment that turned me around on Dustin. I mostly stopped hating him after that.
