Rib breaker by Muta, he goes up to the top turnbuckle again and nails the moonsault. Your winner: Great Muta

Match Thoughts: Still enjoy the crowd chanting "Muta!" at the end of the match, while I don't think that is what WCW had in mind they did nothing to discourage it like you see in current wrestling sometimes. Over two months in and Muta was still squashing two wrestlers at the same time, but he would start getting some tougher competition in the summer. Poor Cougar Jay took the misting like a champ, but Knight did too so I guess he couldn't really complain. A fun little squash. Score: 6.0
