Wasnt at the match, but, upon hearing from a "reliable source": 1) The match lasted about 5 - 7 minutes , mostly of the other wrestler ("bad guy") stalling and acting scared. 2) Snuka jumps off the second rope, not the top one like he used to....And the other wrestler basically catches him and lets himself be pinned. 3) God Bless Jimmy, but there comes a time to hang it up. Some wrestlers were still able to put on a respectable showing into their late 50's (Ric Flair, Terry Funk). Unfortunately, others keep going because they need the $. "Legacy" means nothing in pro wrestling. 4) How'd he get hooked up for the Gladiators? For about $350 and travel + "expenses", you too can have Jimmy wrestle at your fundraiser....
