Savage vs. Steamboat

By Scott Keith on 7 October 2023

I'm not going to point out every detail of the technical masterpiece that their match was at WM 3, but how one thing I don't think gets enough credit is the commentary from Monsoon and Ventura. They're reacting to everything like a legitimate competition, with reasonable arguments about technique, the work of the referee, and of course the occasional bickering over who is and isn't cheating, without being insufferable or forced. This might be one of the best matches with the best calls of all time. Any other matches where the quality of the men (or women) calling a match is on par with a match of high quality?

I thought the commentary on the Danielson-Zack Sabre match was an underrated reason for it feeling even better. Nigel in particular.
