Before Van Dam signed with Paul Heyman's ECW in 1996, he had a short run in WCW, before touring with All-Japan Pro Wrestling. This is before 4:20, before the 5-Star Frog Splash, before the trippy singlets, and before the fame, yet some call this match his best of his career.
Overview:
Kroffat works his usual heel angle well, and RVD does a terrific job, in a match that was VERY well put together, with very few mistakes. Early, Kroffat catches Van Dam's throat in a rough chop, nearly drops him in mid-crucifix/sunset flip, and obviously anticipates some of the moves. The only real mistake V.D. makes is when they're on the outside, and V.D. forgets Kroffat likes to reverse his suplex, and nearly breaks his own neck selling the wrong direction. Kroffat begins no-selling some hand strikes from exhaustion, but RVD picks up the slack, selling a DDT phenomenally, and hitting D.K. with some kicks you can't pretend didn't hurt.

Classy, dignified, but not meant to be taken lightly, Sky is ready to face the world¹s best – and look good while doing it! Carrying his "Montclair High School - Most Likely To Succeed" and "Best Athlete" plaques with him at all times, Sky appears to be influenced by Mohammed Ali (who, admits that his boxing persona was taken from pro wrestler Gorgeous George). Cocky to some, confident to others, he calls himself “The Greatest” and he is coming to WSX to prove it to everyone.
