Sean Waltman Names Match Featuring The Kliq In WWE As One Of His Favorites

Sean Waltman has named a 1994 tag match featuring The Kliq on WWE Action Zone as one of his all-time favorites. The WWE Hall of Famer spoke with Fightful for a new interview and talked about the October 30, 1994 match, which featured Shawn Michaels and Diesel facing Razor Ramon and Waltman in his 1-2-3 Kid gimmick. You can see some highlights below:

On the match: “Top three matches in my career. That was one of the best tag team matches you’ll see. I’m not just saying that because it’s myself and my three best friends. Paul (Triple H) wasn’t there, obviously. Looking back on that, I wrestled three times that night. That was my third match. It was at the end of the night and the people were dead. They were dead. We got out there and as soon as we started in, the place came alive. We were going there every two or three weeks for TV shows. So these people were [dead], but we got them.”

On how they laid out the bout: “Yeah, we did a lot of unconventional things. Like Scott hit Shawn with his finish, the Razor’s Edge like right in the beginning of the match. Things that normally, when you’re laying a match out, you wouldn’t put those things in those spots, but we did it and it worked perfectly. So yeah, Scott took the big heat. It’s great getting heat on Scott Hall ‘cause he’d sell for everybody. Thank you for bringing that match up, ‘cause it’s one of my favorites.”

On Todd Pettengill’s commentary work: “I was a Todd Pettengill fan. I thought he did a really good job. He wasn’t the guy that had all the insider terms for the names of the moves. He was no Mike Tenay or anything like that. But he had a nice energy he brought to it. All I’m saying is I see why they brought him in.”
