Stan Hansen vs. Terry Funk, 4/14/1983

This is an awesome ten minute set up to an awesome angle. Match is fantastic while it lasts. Terry sells ear damage early on and it’s that classic kind of Terry Funk wobbling and uncomfortably realistic selling. He tries to work the knee to come back with the toe holds but Hansen busts him open. Brutal BRUTAL blade work by Terry here and then there’s a ref bump. They brawl out on the floor and Hansen grabs a big cable or rope or something AND TIES IT AROUND TERRY’S NECK AND DRAGS HIM AROUND BY THE THROAT. HE DRAGS HIM IN WITH IT AND HANGS HIM OVER THE ROPES UNTIL HE STOPS MOVING AND THE REF CALLS IT.
