in Early August, 1989

Event: NWA World Championship Wrestling
Location: Unknown
Announced Attendance: Unknown

Tie-up, side headlock takedown by Muta, Emory gets back to his feet and Irish whips out of it but Muta shoulderblocks him down. Muta goes off the ropes, Emory goes for a monkey flip but Muta cartwheels to the side and delivers a dropkick. Emory is tossed out of the ring but returns after a moment, but Muta throws him back out again. Back in the ring, Irish whip by Muta to the corner and he hits the space rolling elbow. Irish whip by Muta, leapfrog by Emory, Muta rolls under it but Emory clotheslines Muta out of the ring. Muta flips his way back in the ring however and hits a spinning back kick. Rib breaker by Muta, he goes up top and delivers the moonsault! Cover, and he picks up the three count. Your winner: Great Muta

Match Thoughts: Oddly I can't find a record of this match date-wise, but they mention Muta's match at Sting at the GAB on commentary as if it recently happened so I am assuming the match took place in early August. I hate to judge Emory based off of one match but he appears to be a muscle head with no actual wrestling ability - I don't think the botch was his fault with the roll-under per se but it was a noticeable awkward moment in such a short match. Not the best squash match, although it is always nice to see the moonsault. Score: 4.0
