Match Thoughts: So someone here didn't know much about wrestling, and I don't know which one. White was still really early in his career but the other matches I have seen from this period were not as basic as this match. So I am going to blame The Alaskans since I don't even know who they are and will probably never see another match with them. But 80% of this match was tie-ups and headlocks and was just really opener level action. Which it might have been. The last 30 seconds or so were fine as they got the hot tag and the fun ending that the crowd enjoyed it, but beyond that it is only notable as an early match of Vader. Score: 3.5
