Most of Us loved to Watch Tag Wrestling and we were lucky to have some Great Tag
Combos-apart from the ROYALS-Yawn Yawn!!
We were even Treated to TAG TEAM K.O.Tournaments in the same Nite which could
certainly spice up a Bill!
But instead of sticking with this Winning Formula and NOT withstanding the fact that an
Official Tag Team Championship wasn't inaugurated-LINCOLN DID do this-and Yes I know
they would have only given it to the ROYALS- Yawn Yawn-ANOTHER Pair of Prime
Candidates for being Over-rated!-the Promoters had been watching too much American
Wrestling!-In their Wisdom-NOT-They decide to introduce HANDICAP TAG MATCHES!!
These usually consisted of ONE Big Guy against TWO Smaller Guys!!
So how about WAYNE BRIDGES vs.MICK MCMANUS AND!! BRIAN MAXINE???
Incidentally 2 more Arch Rivals for TAGGING WITH THE ENEMY!!
On paper 2 Thuggish Wrestlers like these Guys should have been able to beat up BRIDGES
and Tire him out while they could take a rest?? Or was WAYNE'S 17 Stone 5 Pounds too much Weight for these 2 'mere' Middleweights??
And Who Won?-Programme to Follow!
Did Anyone see one of these HANDICAP TAG MATCHES? Who were the Wrestlers?
MAIN MASK
Totally devalued the pair in my opinion. Another example was Kick Kik Lee v Finlay and Sid Cooper. Totally disrepectful to Finlay and a waste of Sid's talent.
Another on youtube is Haystacks v the Wilson Brothers. I guess this made a bit more sense, but in the end it was a let down with Jonny making inroads before his less experienced borther is quashed.
