A lot of you may only remember Barbarian from his WWF days when he wore antlers.
I mean sure, that was an all-time classic look and arguably my favorite for the guy, but I’m pretty sure he spent more time in Crockett’s NWA and WCW than he did working for Vince. And that’s what we’re here to witness today, as he’s taking on none other than…
…Jimmy Garvin. Now you may think that there’s zero chance this is a SQUASH as Jimmy Jam was a pretty big star, and was in fact, a tag team champion for the company just a few months before this match took place.
Well, you’d think that would be the case, but believe me, there’s zero doubt this is a Barbarian showcase. In fact, the only real offense Garvin gets is a quick series of arm wringers to kick things off…
…and then a few more a few seconds later. Not sure how many matches have been won via ARM WRINGER, but rest assured this ain’t one of them.
Barbie drops atop Garvin and them begins choking him out then unloading some boots into his nearly lifeless body as well. It’s all weird to see as Garvin was never presented as a jobber before.
Garvin throws some punches so pathetic even Randy Mulkey himself would be ashamed of. Gotta think Barbarian was like, “Dude, if you’re gonna be that lame I’m gonna kick your head off.” Which he does, then the match is over. At this point Garvin’s in-ring career was coming to an end, although according to Cagematch, he had a match in 1996 against…this cannot possible be…the ULTIMATE WARRIOR? Excuse me, y’all, I got another match to find!!!
