Slim J Bit Off More Than He Can Chew Like A Face Full of Swedish Fish or Lorena with Two Penises

Slim J vs. Iceberg NWA Anarchy 4/26/14 - GREAT 

PAS: This was more of an angle than a match, but it is a heck of an angle. Iceberg and Slim J had been a tag team (with the amazing name of Iceberg Slim), but Berg had gone back to his heel ways and rejoined up with Jeff G. Bailey. Slim gets on the mic and demands an explanation, Berg cheap shots him with a nasty right hand, then smashes him all around the arena, throwing him into the post and the ring barrier. Slim gets a slight comeback, only to continue to get destroyed until Berg gets DQ'ed for driving the implement of destruction into his head. Ace Rockwell comes out for the save, only to get jumped by Shaun Tempers. This sets up Rockwell/Slim vs. Berg/Tempers which I am sure is great. Cool big man vs. little match if a bit one sided. 

Slim J vs. Griff Garrison Anarchy Wrestling 1/13/18 - FUN

PAS: This was a fun TV juniors match with future AEWer Garrison early in his career. So many of the Slim matches we have been reviewing lately have been brawls, but he is also really good at this kind of AEW Dark juniors match. He hit a really great looking headscissors off the ropes, a flipping springboard dive in the ring and a rubix cube finish. Garrison got a moment or two to shine, but this was mostly a showcase of Slim J's offense, which is always worth watching
