Chain Chain Chain
I typically don't like chain matches. And I'm not sure what I think about the rules of this particular contest (winner is the guy who tags all four corners of the ring). But I do like blond-on-blond wrestling, especially if we're talking long hair. I like Jeff Jarrett here in 1989 at his blondest and prettiest. (It's a WCCW match against Buddy Roberts, thanks to the inexhaustible Ray D.) Especially I like Jeff's tights, which look like he melted a dozen red Wham-O superballs all over his butt and legs. Tights can be very sexy. Sure, they hide the legs, but they rub against the legs too, and they stretch and cling. (Face it. Robin Hood, Hamlet, Superman, and Rudolf Nureyev were on to something.) And I got a chuckle out of the silly twist at the end of the match.
I don't understand why, but I never got into Jarrett as I would've expected to. I strongly suspect it may have had to do with the opponents he faced. This match is a perfect example. For me, Buddy Roberts was uninspirational, to put it politely.
