Harvey Whippleman competing against Howard Finkel in a Tuxedo match
A Tuxedo match is similar to the Bra and Panties match, where the match is contested between 2 male competitors in tuxedos. In order to win you need to strip the opponent's tuxedo off of them. When special guest host ZZ Top scheduled a tuxedo match against Chavo Guerrero Jr. and Hornswoggle, they called it a Sharp Dressed Man Match, a reference to their hit song, Sharp Dressed Man.
