There are plenty of 70s Bruno blow off matches on tape. Vs Arion, Waldo Von Erich, Volkoff, Patera, Koloff, Hansen. Not from the 60s of course. Plenty of non-blow off MSG footage of Bruno as well. And he didn't really wrestle on Saturday TV much
"I think you guys are doing the best job you possibly can with the material, spoofing it while still covering the historical elements where needed. Will give it a listen if you want your work picked apart, but honestly this was a blast to listen to from beginning to end and I really enjoyed it.
I'd like a Hulkamania era house show or two covered."
Thanks man. These are a blast to do and we want them to be entertaining to listen to.
I'm sure we'll do some Hogan era shows, since there are a ton of them with a ton of God awful wrestling. We have a few ideas for future shows that we think will be fun
Something new and exciting for 2016---Mystery Titans Theatre*!!! Available only on YouTube. Watch along as Parv, Kelly and Johnny subject themselves to unimaginable wrestling horrors as they watch cards from yesteryear. You thought Heroes of Wrestling was bad? Ha!
*Two out of three non-American hosts, so majority rules for spelling
Pilot episode for those who missed it:
Look out for the 2nd episode in a few hours. This time Parv, Kelly and Johnny look at the 12/19/77 MSG card. Is it worse than the 4/23/83 Cap Centre card? Watch along and you be the judge!
The blood stoppage was a go-to Vince Sr finish, used as a way to get out of a match without having to give a disivive outcome and to prolong the series. Watching these matches years later, I agree it's one of the worst finishes, and I groan almost every time one happens. I'm sure even the fans of the time hated it. Basically it was a loophole that exploited the whole "the title can only change hands by pinfall or submission" rule
Yeah, 10/19 at MSG ends with the title held up. 11/23 is the rematch. Definitely watch the two together. They also have two in Philly, with the first bout being really good, and a rematch in a cage
The Broadway is divisive. I liked it a lot, but I've only seen it the once, about 6 or so years ago. I know Parv, one of my partners on the Titans of Wrestling podcast (mostly about Backlund era WWF) hated it. I really didn't like the finish to the March 79 match. Valentine returns to NYC in 1981 and the two of them have several classic matches during that run. 11/23/81 at MSG is my all-time favorite Backlund match

Just copy and paste the url from the youtube video into the "Insert video link" bar and select mp4 from the drop down menu. Then click convert. Hopefully it makes sense from there. Or just ask your kids
Haha... I'll hook you up with a link to the site I use to "rip" videos from YouTube. Rip means to convert the video to an MP4 file, which you can save to your computer. Don't worry, it's easy
