And the Band Played Waltzing Matlida, and Finlay Stopped to Bury his Slain

Fit Finlay v. Mal Sanders LDN 2/23/12

Really enjoyable match which is very different then any other Finlay match on his comeback. Sanders looks older then Finlay and basically wrestles like a Leicester pensioner Gene Anderson. He looks like he reeks of cigarettes and he has a bunch of really tricky ways to tear up Finlay's arm. It is weird to see Finlay work as Ricky Steamboat, all selling and frustration. When he does get an advantage he does hit Sanders Finlay level hard, but most of the match he is being flummoxed. I loved the finish with Finlay finally putting one over Sanders and outsmarting the wily veteran, and you have to love a match where Fit Finlay has to outsmart a wily veteran.
