  1. I've had an idea for an all-Canadian show in the back of my mind for a while and it would definitely include a look at the Maritimes
  2. I would love to hear you "do Parv", because even the man of a thousand voices hasn't been able to master that one.
  3. Look for the first 1981 show this coming week, a review of a Valentine's Day card from the Spectrum with some Good, Bad and just plain Ugly (aka "Pete's Protest")

    That's how Jericho's career making heel run in WCW started
  5. I listened and I agree, Grande would be a welcome guest. (just as long as he watches the footage and takes a spot after me in the speaking order )

    I've never seen something that screams "GIF" more than Dave's Queen of England wave to the crowd
  8. 2014 RVD = 1979 Chief Jay Strongbow, without the Valentine feud I thought the Bryan-Steph-Brie segment was great
  9. My guess is that, during a period when they were losing the promotional war, they scheduled their PPV's so that they would take place before WCW's in a desperate attempt to sway the buyer who only purchased one show a month
  10. Still doing 1981. #27 will be the first 1975 show, #28 will be the first 1981. The plan right now is to do a 1975-1981-Special-1981-repeat rotation for the future Here's a preview of #28. May be a two-part show if we look at all the matches WWF (Spectrum, Philadelphia, 2/14/81) 1) Bulldog Brower vs Angelo Gomez 2) Larry Sharpe vs Steve King 3) The Great Yatsu vs Frank Savage 4) Hulk Hogan vs Dominic Denucci 5) Pedro Morales vs Stan Hansen 6) Killer Khan vs Rick McGraw 7) Sgt. Slaughter vs Bob Backlund 8) The Hangman vs Johnny Rodz 9) SD Jones vs Baron Mikel Scicluna 10) Tony Garea & Rick Martel vs Moondogs (Texas Death match)
  11. Could only find these three instances for All Japan in 1972 where he teamed with Terry and Dory: Bruno Sammartino and Terry Funk defeated Giant Baba and Thunder Sugiyama by countout (29:47 minutes) by 2 falls to 1 Bruno Sammartino and Terry Funk defeated Giant Baba and Masio Koma (25:08 minutes) by 2 falls to 1 Giant Baba and Motoshi Okuma defeated Bruno Sammartino and Dory Funk by disqualification (15:12 minutes) by 2 falls to 1
  12. Had a blast too. Here's a playlist to complement the show: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLV6RCTo_Cd0DkwSC0tABPr2_PnP_04deW&feature=mh_lolz
  13. Poster to attract potential investors...
  14. I'm starting a doc fund. $18 so far.
  15. Titans summer preview...
  16. Excellent piece. Wrestling writing at its finest
  17. And DeNucci/Rivera vs the Blackjacks from 6/4/75 is a fucking awesome brawl involving chairs, the wooden steps and Albano dishing out ball shots.
  18. Just watched Greg Valentine vs Jay Strongbow in a Strap Match from Philly 8/18/79 and it is a nice little bloody brawl.
  19. Great minds think alike (special sneak preview)
