Has this match been well circulated before? Is it from the garbage tapes? Never knew it was out there until recently. https://youtu.be/gsd3Xml25Qo

Hogan vs Andre from the early 80s also applies, other than the Philly match from March 81 Edit: never mind, that wasn't a great feud

Come on Parv, the cage blow-off at Shea may have been nothing special, but the initial matches between Bruno and Larry at MSG and Philly were pretty good

That's hilarious. I especially love the part where Meltzer responds to Russo comparing himself and Chyna to Jesus and Mary Magdalene. The "I mean"'s and "you know"'s are pure Meltz verbal ticks.

I thought Sid was cool...until I saw him wrestle. Zzzzzzzzzzz Warrior from 88-91 was fun with plenty of memorable matches and angles.

Don't listen to Parv, Strongbow vs Fuji is fantastic pro wrestling

Great show guys -"The Canadian"

I agree. She's one of the best wrestlers around today

Fitting that Joe debuts on a day when people are talking about TNA being in a death spiral

Party like it's 2005

Fucking awesome match

Between this and Looney Toons wrestler comparisons you truly have done it all

A one off SNME match between the two could've worked

May as well take the impersonation angle to the nth degree and eventually have everyone on the main roster doing an impression of a 1988 WWF wrestler, with no rhyme or reason to who plays who. You know, Reigns as Hacksaw Jim Duggan, Cena as Ted DiBiase, Orton as Andre etc. Probably would be a lot more entertaining than the status quo

Cool. I don't remember the angle but do recall Patera and Billy Jack teaming. We'll have to check that out when we get to 1987

The panel will be the focus like on American Idol and other shows, so of course you want Hogan on it. And Bryan and Paige get the rub by association
