He's had dozens that could qualify. Funk v Lawler in '81 was the first ever 5 star match so that's probably a good place to start.

>>11285721
Also a good candidate.

Not as many as I'd like to have but yeah; from everything I've seen I'd put that as the first 5 star match. The next one was a few months later, Patterson v Slaughter at MSG.

the empty arena match vs. lawler is based. not because it's a stunningly put-together high workrate bangerino, but because it actually looks, feels and sounds exactly like a fat psychotic retard getting the fuck beaten out of him after trying to start shit with someone stronger than him. it's like a fight video you would see on liveleak or something. it's perfectly executed as something that feels "real".
