Match of the Day - "The Nasty Boys are Cactus's toys"

The Nasty Boys vs. Cactus Jack (w/missing ear) & Maxx Payne - Chicago Street Fight for the WCW Tag Team Championship - Spring Stampede (1994)


Another one of those Nasty Boy street fights that goes out into the merchandise stand. According to WWE.com it's one of the best WCW matches of all time. What makes it better than the other street fights like this one in 1994? Was it Cactus & Payne? Was it the sheer brutality for '94? Was it the stiffness? Was it the table spot?

Maybe it was the Cactus Jack bump in perfect Mick Foley fashion (that has been well documented on this site) at that end there -  from the ramp to the floor - before getting whacked in the head with the shovel against his missing ear (Cactus lost it a month prier in German in his infamous match with Big Van Vader).

I didn't know the Nasty Boys were from Maine... It's spring time and they're still using snow shovels.
