Mortis & Wrath vs. Glacier & Ernest "The Cat" Miller



I'll just say it, Ernest Miller was kinda awesome. Before he learned he could get by on schtick. When he was karate fighter Ernest Miller, he had some fun as hell offense.

Glacier is not really a bad work guy, he had a good look. But he never figured out how to integrate the karate into pro wrestling, like Jerry Flynn or Miller or even Steve Blackman.

Anyway Glacier and Miller are facing Mortis and Wrath in the opener to Bash At The Beach 97.

Miller and Glacier bust out fun double teams on Mortis and Wrath. Miller has about a million good looking kick variations.

Wrath gets in and I really don't know if he actually knows any actual martial arts. But he does a great job bullshitting it. Love him overpowering Miller and Glacier, flinging them into each other. They respond with a double dropkick.

Wrath does this odd looking Boston Crab variation. He does not go full pendulum on him, which is a shame.


Love the finishing sequence. Vandenberg (Mortis and Wrath's manager) puts a chain on Mortis's foot. He takes one for the team, eating the Cryonic kick from Glacier. But he turns around and takes the chain assisted super kick.
