It's not exactly a match that jumps off of SummerSlam 1993's match list, and feels like it was just thrown together to secure a payday for six midcard wrestlers.

Shoehorned in between a lousy Undertaker-Giant Gonzalez snoozer and the Yokozuna-Lex Luger World Title bout, it seemed to have filler written all over it. But if you watch the match, you'd agree it's anything but.

It's eleven minutes of fast-paced work, crazy bumps, and innovative spots that would satiate today's demanding fans, and was positively wild for 1993. Near the end, Bigelow and both Headshrinkers miss a triple diving headbutt, covering a lot of ground with their respective misses.

If you enjoy helter skelter six-man battles, this is your cup of tea.
