David Mercury: “Well my Favorite match has to the Original Iron Man match between Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels. No has been ever to duplicate this match and I don't think anyone can ever do it again. My Favorite match would have to be the one I participated in at a show called UNITED. It was a Super show that show cased matches from different promotion from around the State of Florida. Dagon Briggs and Myself represented AAP (All Aggression Pro) and it was a solid match!! It had ever thing and the crowd was HOT for it!! I didn't pull the victory, but still left with my head high because of what we did in that ring. http://youtu.be/muxLRZz93X0
