They Might Sag, But They Sure As Hell Don't Lag

LDN LONDON EYE 48 - Finlay vs Mal Sanders

This is just nearly 30 minutes of 2 legends of UK wrestling taking cheap shots at each other in good spirits.  You can tell they're both having a blast out there.  You can't exactly call Finlay a babyface, but the crowd are 100% behind him here (at the start of the match he even hugs some old ladies, has warm exchanges with fans and even gives a little cuddle to a beer swilling goon).

The match itself is very entertaining.  It isn't pretty and that's what makes it so good.  Both of these guys are very gifted wrestlers, but even the old school holds have a dirty edge to them.  Sanders bashing Finlay's arm into the mat after every arm hold at the start of the match is amazing.  It pisses everyone off but he keeps doing it and gets some great heel heat.  Enjoy this one.  One for those who like their wrestling old, cheap and nasty.
