This was a squash but Tiger Jeet Singh is legit a scary dude. This dude whooped on Gannosuke with a chair then choked him out on a barbed wire board.
Tiger Jeet Singh advances via submission
2/5
Leatherface v. Terry Funk in a Barbed Wire Board and Chain Match
This match was insane. The match started with Terry Funk going through barbed wire. Leatherface used a chainsaw. These two climbed a baseball wall and fought at the top. And we had an I am the table spot. Considering this was 1995 this was way ahead of its time.
Terry Funk advances via pinfall
3.5/5
Cactus Jack v. Terry Gordy in a Barbed Wire Baseball Match and Thumbtacks Match
This match was great because it was one of the last great Terry Gordy matches. He was smacking around Cactus Jack the whole match. Cactus took an insane amount of punishment and could make a story out of it. Who else does this better? I mean that Powerbomb he took on that bed of tacks. Fuck!. That fucking fucker got him.
Cactus Jack advances via pinfall
3/5

This was okay. It was a slow technical match so it wasn't my thing but at least it was short.
Iceman wins via pinfall
1.5/5
Tiger Jeet Singh v. Terry Funk in a Barbed Wire Board and Glass match
This was crazy. From Tiger Jeet Singh chasing the crowd with a sword,to Tiger Jeet Singh beating up a young boy with the end of the sword, to Terry Funk bleeding buckets this was chaos in the best possible way. Plus Cactus Jackcoming out and attacking both men was great foreshadowing.
Terry Funk advances via pinfall
3/5

Dan Severn defends the NWA Championship against Tarzan Goto
This match was insane. Not a Death Match but this felt like a real fight and Tarzan Goto bled perfusely. Dan Severn was a badass who was grossly underutilized in WWE.
Dan Severn retains via submission
3/5
Terry Funk v. Cactus Jack in a Barbed Wire Board Timed Explosion Match.
I had not seen this match before and what the fuck was I waiting for? How the fuck have I been a death match fan for 2 years and a wrestling fan for 33 and not seen this? That bump Cactus took from the Ladder to the Barbed Wire rivals his Hell in a Cell bump and Cactus was a bloody mess. Terry is a fucking legend.
Cactus Jack wins the King of the Death Match via pinfall
5/5
Overall
The Tournament itself is amongst the best I have ever seen and lays the ground work for the modern style of Death Match Wrestling.
