HANSEN, GORDY vs. BRODY, SNUKA (3)

Stan Hansen, Terry Gordy vs. Bruiser Brody, Jimmy Snuka

ALL JAPAN, The World Tag League '87
Nov 22, 1987 Korakuen Hall (Tokyo)




Hansen and Brody, the two superstars fought in Japan for the first time.
Korakuen was a small hall comparatively, but spectators were very exciting, and all wrestling fan in Japan were watching this match on TV breathlessly.


Perhaps Hansen and Brody were oversensitive.
Their attacks and defenses did not directly meet.
But the confrontation of them had tremendous impact, that was true.
The TV announcer Kuramochi said "Yet I cannot see which is stronger !"

The smallest sized of the four, Snuka was attacked hard, and this match ended in a draw on double ring-out.
Baba planned a single match between Hansen and Brody.
But in the next year Brody met a sudden death, this tag match was the first, and the last fight for the super monsters.
