Eddie Kingston at the Hot Stove, Jelly Jar, Baking Soda, Hot Water, Mask, Gloves Can't Stand the Odor

Eddie Kingston vs. Hotstuff Hernandez IWA-MS 5/12/07 - GREAT

PAS: This was peak swoll Hotstuff, he looks like a Mexican Mafia enforcer who has been in Pelican Bay for 18 months lifting weights. He manhandles Eddie for most of the early part of the match, and Eddie is great as a guy being manhandled. He sells every shot like it is breaking him down,  and really conveys the frustration of chopping away a granite block. Eddie is able to find some cracks in the second half of the match, landing some big backfists and getting some near falls. I really liked the spot where Hotstuff skinned the cat to the top rope only to get jump kicked in the temple. Eddie's rally fell short when Hotstuff hit him with a heavy border toss for the win. Hotstuff was a bit unyielding for this to be a true epic, but it was a hell of fight and Eddie fighting against the odds only to succumb is a great story line for him.


COMPLETE AND ACCURATE EDDIE KINGSTON
