David Flair vs. El Dandy (and other Dream Matches!)

Welcome back to more Dream Matches! This week, I have one of the infamous “Worst matches ever put on TV” as a botchy, untrained David Flair is given an inexplicable TV push, and poor El Dandy is the good worker expected to get something out of him! This is less than two minutes long yet is completely disastrous, which shows you how important even a modicum of training is. Next up, it’s a fascinating mismatch I found out about from Logan Sisco’s great “What The World Was Watching” column- Goldust vs. Hakushi from a 1996 WWF Superstars! Then 1995 WWF gives us a FAT MAN STAND-OFF, as King Kong Bundy faces Mabel in a “two-man Royal Rumble” with no rules and top-rope eliminations being the only ones counted!

Next up it’s a throwaway WCW Luchadore match with a newly unmasked Psychosis joining Juventud Guerrera & La Parka against Silver King & Los Villanos on a 1999 Nitro! Then more of “Cyanide” Sid Cooper in World of Sport as he faces Pete Ross in 1982 England! And finally, our “PWI 500” guy of the week is “Supreme” Lee Great as he faces first Johnny Stamboli in that semi-successful WWE-knockoff in Italy in 2005, and then Smooth Johnny Suede in some goofy indie show!

DAVID FLAIR (w/ Torrie Wilson, Ric Flair & Arn Anderson) vs. EL DANDY:
(WCW Nitro, May 24th 1999)
* So by mid-1999, WCW had been getting their asses handed to them by the WWF for more than a year, and things were only getting worse. The answer- random booking that never went anywhere! Hence David Flair being seduced by Torrie Wilson in an angle that lasted so long, WWF called Terri Power “Tori” on her debut before WCW could use their new star’s name. And now the flabby, weak-looking son of Ric Flair was going to be trained as a wrestler! Various problems abound: David is one of the all-time worst-looking wrestlers in history, making the Young Bucks look like Sid or the Warlord. He’s also uninterested in wrestling, and almost completely untrained. At least on paper, they have the best possible opponent for him: El Dandy is a very good worker, but A) is maybe the lowest-ranked wrestler in the entire company, and B) looks like total shit. A short, dumpy-looking guy, he’s jobbed up and down the card for AGES and has zero credibility. This combination of traits makes him way better than a Power Plant goober, who’d be on a similar level but would A) be jacked and roided, too much to have it not be weird that David could win, and B) be way too shitty a worker to carry a green rookie. And so poor Eld Dandy has to come out here and try to make DAVID FLAIR look like he knows what he’s doing.

Naturally, David comes out shirtless, revealing his nothin’-to-write-home-about, flabby physique with a muffin top poking out over his dark jeans, formless arms, and permanent rouge on his face. Possibly the all-time worst-looking wrestler ever. His only advantage here is that dumpy ol’ Dandy is almost a head shorter.

Running the ropes is the FIRST THING they teach you! WTF is David doing?!

The bell rings and David immediately shoves over Dandy, who goes ass over teakettle. David kicks him and they immediately do wrestling’s most basic move- the headlock into a shoot-off, and David clearly DOESN’T EVEN KNOW HOW TO RUN THE ROPES, going backwards into them with his arms clenched at his sides while he’s hunched over (you’re supposed to take it sideways and grab a rope). He stumbles doing a shoulderblock as he’s scampering all over the ring. A limp clothesline has El Dandy do another great full-back bump, then David just fuckin’ stands there so poor El Dandy has to literally run up and chase him down for a drop-toehold, David tipping over like a tree. El Dandy kicks him in the chest to send David reeling, but David leans back so far that El Dandy’s front dropkick misses, and David does a back body drop. A vertical suplex gets two (David is pausing after EVERY MOVE, as if trying to remember the next thing to do and forgetting to move at all), but a chop is ducked and El Dandy swats him down with a throat thrust. Sending danger, Ric jumps into the ring, distracting the ref so Arn can run in, kick El Dandy in the ass, then whip him off the ropes for a Spinebuster to the only reaction all match. And now David sets up the Figure-Four Leglock, and El Dandy has to give up at (1:26) with a move as poorly executed as THAT.

TERRIBLE. David’s loose Tommy Hilfigers snag El Dandy’s toe and make the Figure-Four look extra shitty.

Yes, the match is only 1:26 and it’s somehow legendarily bad. Maven reviewed this on his great YouTube channel and just the rope-running told him that “Talent is non-transferable” and David had clearly seen little ring-time. Like, scrunching up your body and sticking your neck out as you hit the ropes? That suggests total discomfort with the move and even the most basic of wrestling training STARTS with running the ropes. Almost all the moves done were things that are almost entirely reliant on the person taking them, allowing El Dandy to bump and swing himself around for the kid, but even then things looked bad because of David’s noticeable hesitation after every move. Total “deer in headlights/what do I do now?” stalling. Naturally, the ones at fault here the most are the BOOKERS, as anyone could see David couldn’t actually work, and he probably needed six months more seasoning and some gym time. El Dandy can only do so much- people talk about David’s dad wrestling “broomsticks”, but you can’t have a match with someone who couldn’t work AT ALL. The only way WCW was able to get anything out of David was to give him a “crazy guy” gimmick (so now his erratic movements felt “in-character”) and surround him with weirdos (Daffney, who had a character, and Crowbar, who could work a ** match).

Rating: DUD (one of the most embarrassing things WCW ever put on TV… at that point, anyways)

This is always interesting to me. Hakushi actually looks good-sized in Japanese stuff, but he’s completely dwarfed by Goldust here. I think Dustin’s a shoot 6’4″ or so.

GOLDUST (w/ Marlena) vs. HAKUSHI:
(WWF Superstars, 03/02/1996)
* WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BABY the very reason Dream Matches was thought of! I had no idea these two wrestled! Two totally diametrically-opposed dudes with entirely different histories and representative of two different eras, yet they actually overlapped by around eight months. Hakushi wasn’t around long and is mostly “New Generation” to me, but Goldust indeed was part of that era, lasting well into the Attitude Era.

Hakushi, who was actually decently-sized in Japan, is nearly a full head shorter than Goldust, and easily counters Hakushi’s kick with a dragon screw. He keeps fondling himself after each move, flustering Hakushi, who gets tripped out of a wristlock reversal, but he scores a throat thrust to put him down, then a dropkick into the elevated Vader Bomb, getting two (despite Vince declaring it OVER). Goldust takes a walk, but a pescado plasters him- back in, he counters a back body drop by hitting the mat and slap-uppercutting Hakushi from there and short-clotheslining to buy himself some time. He slithers around the ring all seductively and USES THE ASS to put Hakushi down. Back from break with Hakushi hanging on Goldust’s back for a sleeper, but Goldust just… drops to his knees and that’s a jawjacker counter (Vince is almost confused on camera- “And that was INTERESTING…”). But he goes up and gets caught with a dropkick, doing the bump to the apron and rolling to the floor (catching his toe on the top rope on the way). Hakushi rolls him back in for a spinkick, cartwheel handspring elbow and a leaping thing and hits the Praying Flying Shoulderblock for two. But he whips Goldust off the ropes and an awkward grab has Goldust go behind him and hit the Shattered Dreams (inverted ddt) with huge elevation for the win (5:16 shown).

A pretty clean match- Hakushi was long done as a pushed guy by this point and so he wasn’t over, as flashy as his offense looked for this era of the WWF. Goldust mostly hit a move then slithered around, then another move and another slither, playing up the weird character, then ate a ton of offense in a row until the outta-nowhere finish for the win.

Rating: ** (fine enough TV match)

The Walking Condominium had an amazing wrestling look. Just so ugly and weirdly-shaped but HUGE.

TWO-MAN ROYAL RUMBLE:
MABEL (w/ Oscar) vs. KING KONG BUNDY (w/ Ted DiBiase):
(WWF RAW, Jan. 30th 1995)
* Spectacular- a FAT MAN STAND-OFF on 1995 RAW, featuring a past-his-prime King Kong Bundy going against the legendary Mabel!

Sadly the match’s rules work against it right away as Mabel tries to push Bundy against the ropes, then Bundy throws some clubbing blows and pushes Mabel against them. This is, as always, the MOST BORING part of the Royal Rumble, to the point where I call it the “Lazy Lean”- guys just leaning against the ropes to save cardio because it’s not their turn to do stuff. TYPICALLY what’s supposed to happen is that other wrestlers are actively doing important stuff in the match and the others aren’t supposed to be drawing attention from them- this keeps fans from being lost with all the action going on. In a singles match, it’s just… lying against the ropes. Mabel lifts up one Bundy leg and grimaces, but an eye-gouge sees Bundy pushing at him. Mabel somehow seems to be blown up only a minute in as Bundy hits an avalanche. He still can’t get Mabel out, and the big guy fires some strikes and hits an enzuigiri of sorts… to the back fat. But Mabel’s running elbowdrop misses (there’s so little give to the ring that a FIVE HUNDRED POUND MAN hits it and it doesn’t budge). Bundy tries to push him over… and here’s I.R.S. and Tatanka to assist, since there’s no DQ in a Rumble. Mo finally waddles down to back up his partner but it’s way too late, as Mabel hits the floor at (3:13), Bundy winning. Lex Luger is also seen out there because he hates the Corporation.

An absolute travesty of agenting and ring work- who books a match between 900 lbs. of humanity and BOOKS ZERO NO-SOLD SHOULDERBLOCKS!? Fans weren’t even treated to a fat guy slugfest- it was right to the Lazy Lean, then a couple strikes and then more Lazy Lean. Bundy’s avalanche and Mabel’s elbow the only running done in the match. Both were somehow blown up in a 3 minute bout… and they EVEN BOOKED A SCREWJOB in it! Bundy was feuding with Undertaker at the time so I guess they had to keep him “strong”.

Rating: DUD (SO BAD! No no-sold shoulderblocks or fat guy spots at all! This is just taking the worst parts of the Royal Rumble and making a match out of it!)\

JUVENTUD GUERRERA, PSYCHOSIS & LA PARKA vs. SILVER KING & LOS VILLANOS (Villano IV & V):
(WCW Thunder, Sept. 30th 1999)
* From the dying days of WCW, they’re STILL filling long bouts of TV time with random lucha matches! Psychosis has JUST been unmasked, having lost his mask this week to Kidman in a Hair vs. Mask match. Villano IV is in one of his first matches back, having suffered a bad neck injury against Raven & Kanyon 11 months before this. Naturally WCW’s giving us the first glimpse of Maskless Psychosis and returned Villano IV in a trios match where they’re just faces in a crowd. The first team VASTLY outstrips the other in star power, too- it’s two former Cruiserweight Champions against jobbers. Man, Psychosis looks like an Easter Island statue. REALLY long, tall face. Killer eyebrows, though- Zbyszko is impressed (“Not a bad looking guy! I figured he’d be ugly!”).

La Parka starts off dancing, immediately getting a thrust kick from Silver King, who accidentally tags both his partners and begs off. Parka drops one Villano and hits a crossbody to the other, leading them to accidentally clothesline Silver King, too. The hard camera angle is weirdly high, here- I’m not using seeing a 3/4 angle isometric view of the ring like this. Psychosis flies in with a missile kick to Villano V, but ends up toeholded onto the bottom rope and legdropped on the back of the head. Juventud tags in with a springboard dropkick, but Villano IV is in. Juvi gets a sunset flip but is powerslammed for two. IV seems to have hurt his hip on that or something and tags out. Silver King backbreakers Psychosis and lures in the partners so the Villanos can tee off on him behind the ref, then Villano V hits Sliced Bread #2 (in 1999!) for two. Silver King gets a clothesline & spinning DDT and Juvi FLIES in from off-screen, springboarding onto both guys. The Villanos fling Juvi up into a double-gutbuster, IV still noticeably limping, but La Parka flies in with a missile dropkick to both and dumps them. Juvi is caught on his dive, but La Parka’s fatass corkscrew plancha puts them down! Psychosis hits a front sit-out suplex on SK but gets stopped up top, but ducks the Villanos’ chops so SK takes it, La Parka dives onto one and Juvi hits a Flying Rana to the other, setting up the Juvi Driver into Psychosis’s Flying Legdrop for the pin (7:51).

Rating: *3/4 (A somewhat disjointed, messy match largely featuring Villano V after his brother got hurt and Silver King just did a couple bits. Mostly Psychosis selling for an extended period before picking up the win, too)

BEST TO TWO FALLS:
“CYANIDE” SID COOPER vs. PETE ROSS:
(World of Sport, August 22nd, 1981)
* No relation to Superman’s childhood friend, Mr. Ross is a pale farmer’s son who looks like if Bob Backlund and John Denver had a baby. Cooper immediately plays up being some sort of low-class hooligan, as the referee pushes about his cheeks demanding he spit that gum out, so Cooper casually puts on on the top of the ringpost. SUCH DISRESPECT. Ross is in black trunks, Cooper a dark blue Andre singlet.

ROUND ONE: They start slow, trading wristlocks, Sid howling (“AWK!”) as he’s tripped- he pushes his own foot against his leg to counter a submission, but boots Ross in the gut and has to be warned about attacking while he’s downed- commentary is quite clear that Cyanide usually resorts to rule-bending as the match goes on. Ross counters an ankle-twist by putting his foot against Sid’s head and slapping his knee to push it- that “use your own body to push another body part” this is so unique to WoS. Ross twists and stretches the ankles & hamstrings, and easily averts a headlock with a high wristlock, then again- this leaves Cyanide getting desperately, as he starts going for hair and pulling at Ross by the jaw. Ross keeps countering him until Sid finally gets a sleeper as time’s up (5:00).

ROUND TWO: Cyanide starts it off with a headbutt to the chest, then tries a single-leg- Ross scissoring his head with the other ankle and Sid going “AWK!” again to sell it. A spin has Sid doing one of those theatrical WoS cartwheel bumps. Sid leverages to avoid a second one, but Ross gets it eventually, provoking Sid to just beat the shit out of him with forearms, leaving the ref pulling him off like “WTF?!”. Sid gets the DISINGENUOUS HANDSHAKE~ to Ross and everyone’s waiting for the other shoe to drop, but he keeps fighting fair for a bit, but ends up in ANOTHER cross-scissors, and is flipped just before time’s up again (5:00), left seething. Another handshake- when’s he gonna cheat again?!

ROUND THREE: Immediately Cooper slugs him in the ribs, but is sure to point to his elbow to be like “Oh no, QUITE legal, good sir!” to the ref. He does it again (clearly an elbow, but I think we’re supposed to think it’s a punch), the fans booing, and he keeps doing simple grabs and firing off close strikes to the ribs and back, resorting to slugging it out instead of Queenly Scientific Wrestling like WoS is supposed to have! He knees Ross in the back while he’s down to bend the rules a bit more, and when Ross fires off a dropkick, he sells his back from the landing. This lets Cooper hit a bodyslam, and another when Ross is up at “9”- he barely gets up again and Cyanide immediately hits an abdominal stretch and WINS THE FALL at (1:40)! Gorilla Monsoon was wrong- it DID defeat someone! Cooper of course keeps it on extra long after Ross screams and gives up.

ROUND FOUR: Cyanide smashes Ross in the back to keep up the targetting, then whips him hard to the turnbuckle, leaving Ross on his knees in pain. He tries an ankle-pick but Cooper pulls him down into a Boston Crab, really cranking it on while Ross writhes in agony, but Sid eventually tires out and switches to a half-crab, allowing Ross to reach back and hook a leg to pull it out and trip Cooper up. The fans applaud as he goes behind Sid, whose legs are spread… and HEADBUTTS HIM IN THE TAINT! TWICE! Cooper makes the ropes to protect his gooch but cleverly punches Ross in the back, but the ref definitely figures it out, and Sid just ass-slams it and fully stomps Ross to earn a Public Warning for it. I love his “Aw, I’m done- don’t worry” acceptance of it, haha. Ross outwrestles Sid on the mat but gets punched in the back a couple times and gets a finger-wagging. Cooper sits on him with another crab and keeps leaning on the ropes until he’s forced to break. Cooper gets a near-abdominal stretch but headbutts him in the spine as time’s up at (5:00).

ROUND FIVE: Final round now. Cooper immediately snags Ross and pounds the back like it’s a grab in Street Fighter II, just hammering away at it. But it’s a BABYFACE COMEBACK- Ross headbutts him and the hit and it’s a hiptoss! Monkey flip! But he tries a snapmare and absolutely eats SHIT on it, bumping nearly upside-down in an amazing-looking yet fairly safe bump (he takes it mostly on the shoulder and rolls out). He’s barely up at “9” but counters Cyanide by flipping him over and sitting on him, but Sid kicks out, but Ross is able to grab him in a backslide for the pin at (1:19)! Tied match!

ROUND SIX: Ross starts hot on Cooper, who’s favoring his back- Cooper takes a bump to the corner and a snapmare, but ends up charging into the referee when Ross dodges! That’s a Public Warning, but he’s so angry he manhandles the ref and “In fact he IS out!” as the ref Disqualifies him at (0:48)! Good on you, ref! Take no guff from that hooligan! Ross wins (2-1) because Cooper couldn’t contain himself! The fans LOVE that, as back in the day it didn’t matter how the falls happened so long as the babyface won, as they bolt to their feet in a huge pop the second the ref holds up his finger to DQ Cyanide.

A good, very simple match, Ross mostly being carried by Cooper’s shenanigans. He was fine but didn’t have much character or any impressive moves- it’s funny seeing the “best grapplers” and then seeing these regular guys who do only the most basic stuff. Good selling, though- very realistic in the way he’s crumble and grimace when hurt, and his “bolt upright” selling really puts over the impact of Cooper. But this is ALL Cooper- a complete slimy ass-bag of a man, constantly sneering and showing his missing teeth as he fights for every little advantage. Pressing his work on the back was a good overall story, as so this starts picking up in Round Three as he takes some cheap-shots and Ross’s own moves have him selling.

Rating: **1/2 (A great display of Cooper’s selling, bumping, and aggravating tactics)

THIS WEEK’S PWI 500 GUY: SUPREME LEE GREAT (aka Jon Trotsky):
PWI 500 appearances: #498 in 2001, #463 in 2003, #481 in 2008

-A classic “never-was” type of guy, Supreme Lee Great was a squat, not-quite-built midget who hung around in World Xtreme Wrestling for most of his career, lasting from 2001-2014. Billed at 5’7″ 209 lbs., he’s clearly shorter than that from what I can see, and has that “tryhard bandana” look common to a lot of early 2000s dudes. But he can actually work from what I’ve seen- theatrical selling, whining to the ref, etc. He’s miles beyond most indie dudes.

And I’m ashamed to admit I didn’t recognize the stupid pun name until someone mentioned he had one, lol.

JOHNNY “THE BULL” STAMBOLI (w/ some floozy) vs. SUPREME LEE GREAT:
(NWE, Italy, 2005)
* It’s NWE! I forget if I’ve covered this before, but it was an Italian fed that eventually got bought out by Rikishi/Solafa Fatu, who turned it into a regular indie, using his American connections to bring in a ton of ex-WWE talent. This being 2005 or so, the spring cleaning of a bloated WWE had led to a LOT of out-of-work roid-monsters, though I mostly remember reading about this being where Orlando Jordan ended up. Lee Great is immediately recognized as positively puny just from walking down the aisle, as nearby fans make him look like a dwarf in his glittery red robe. And holy shit look at him next to the announcer and ref- this dude is MAYBE 5’3″. Crowd actually goes NUTS for Johnny, fresh from WWE & New Japan, as he waves around the Italian flag. He’s with some blonde I don’t recognize whose red skirt is more like a long shirt. Johnny is on ALL THE STEROIDS and has those baggy black pants on, while Great’s in a blue singlet with stitch markings.

“OOMPA LOOMPA DUMPITTY-DOO- I come from the US to job for you!”

Before the match, Stamboli takes off part of his gear and whips it at Lee’s head, so he charges in and gets flung back twice, selling the back theatrically and whining to the ref about it. haha okay so the midget can work. Well it’s cartoony but he bumps well and stuff. Johnny allows himself to be headlocked as a taunt, easily flinging SLG off the ropes and bulldozing him down by just standing there. Johnny gives him another shot and blasts him down again, then next time just trips him, chortling at Great’s sell. SLG finally takes the lead by throwing his leg back into Johnny’s nuts off a go-behind, the ref not seeing it. He beats Stamboli down with assorted forearms and overhands, choking, and cutting off comebacks with eye-gouging and a clothesline. A running elbow in the corner dazes Johnny, and a backsplash elbow from the middle rope puts him down- Lee keeps taking his time on covers, then they have a chat and he uses a front facelock w/ bodyscissors to set up the babyface comeback. Johnny powers up after keeping his hand up at “3” and rams him into two corners, but Great uses the momentum to hit a tornado DDT for two. Johnny finally dodges a charge and hits an insta-comeback- two clotheslines and a side suplex to counter a floatover, but SLG manages a clothesline to come back. But Johnny counters a whip to an overhead belly-to-belly & spear in the corner, then, huffing and puffing (lol he blown up) kicks him right in the balls while he’s stuffed in the corner with his legs spread out. Stamboli mocks his testicular pain, then press-slams him into a powerslam for the pin (8:34). But then ANOTHER SKANK comes out and wipes out Johnny’s valet while Umaga/Jamal hits the ring and blasts Johnny with the Samoan drop, and they drape the Italian flag over him while the valet slaps him until Chuck Palumbo comes out for the save.

THIS DIDN’T SUCK!! My PWI watch-through usually presents entertainingly awful crap but Great actually impressed me despite all the shade I threw at him, haha. I’m glad my preconceived notions don’t hamper my ratings! He actually did pretty well as a whiny heel, and since he had to control most of the offense, he shook it up a bit and always made it look like he was in a fight, doing real counters to moves and not just weirdly flashy stuff to pop the fans or obviously cooperated stuff. I mean it wasn’t PHENOMENAL but it was the exact kind of card-filler you’d see on SmackDown!, just extended to nearly 9 minutes of action. Just enough to blow Johnny up and require poor Great to have to do everything.

Rating: **1/4 (perfectly good wannabe WWE flavor)

“SUPREME” LEE GREAT (w/ Little Jeannie) vs. SMOOTH JOHNNY SUEDE (w/ Ariel):
(World Xtreme Wrestling, Yokozuna Memorial Show, 2001)
* WXW holding a Yokozuna Memorial Show in a ridiculously tiny building? Okay! Lee Great has his hair all oily and over his face and is still very “1999” in fashion, and is actually announced with his PWI 500 number (498… why would you advertise that someone is worse than 497 other guys?). Suede looks like Buff Bagwell but skinnier. As in he’s deliberately evoking him. Never thought I’d live to see a Buff Bagwell cosplayer. Theme music appears to be superimposed over the video, so “I Touch Myself” by the Divynyls for Suede sounds weird. Metal Maniac, the heel commentator for this match also sounds exactly like Dr. Teeth from the Muppets, so that’s funny.

Things already look horrible as Suede is acrobatic but they’re obviously cooperating on do-si-do whips and throwing the other guy just so they can flip- Suede does the “kick then backflip out of the corner” thing and even squat Great gets monkey-flipped and lands on his feet. They do a ton of rollups as the ref is counting WAY too fast and I think it’s fucking everyone up. I mean he’s doing the first count as he’s falling to the mat, then doing the second IMMEDIATELY after and I think both guys are panicking and flashing out of pins too quickly, outside the normal cadence of wrestling, which is “let the bump sink in, first slap, second slap, kickout”. Instead it’s like “bump, cover, immediate kickout” so nothing is lasting. Maniac says “Little Jeannie’s got more curves than the Indy 500” and car racing sounds are played- who let their friends do A/V for this show? Their clunky but quick pinfall sequence earns the “pause for applause” as commentary mostly ignores the in-ring- SLG hits a backdrop, chops and a back elbow out of the corner. Suede gets a headscissors and that’s all it takes to set up the 450 Splash, but Little Jeannie attacks him to break up the pin, sending in Ariel for an ECW-style catfight spot. SLG uses the distract to hit a German & Dragon Suplex for two, then a flying elbowdrop. Ariel hits the apron, provoking a lot of distractions and another catfight, Suede scores a head kick, but then Ariel hits a 450 TO THE FLOOR, smashing into SLG, who of course has to stand there like an idiot for ages while she gets in position. Back in, Suede immediately hits the Air Raid Crash for the pin at (5:56). You know it’s early ’90s indie wrestling when Mariko Yoshida’s finisher turns up.

That fun kind of “Indie Terrible”- both guys are clearly trained and aren’t botch machines, being somewhat agile, but are unable to “work” the progression of a match, nor their moves, so are clearly helping each other flip around and are way too clunky with their reversals, being quick yet getting in each other’s way, while neither bothers to play heel or babyface- it felt like both were sorta bad guys. The kickouts come too quickly because of the ref’s counts, so no move sinks in with the crowd, and it descends into “make them pop for moves”. Funny to see the VALET score the biggest move of the match, too, and Suede immediately uses it for the pin.

Rating: 1/2* (basic indie flippy/”pause for applause” match, but short)
