Real quick... meant to reply to this earlier... when I was going through earlier wrestlers, I was going on instincts. I thought there were tons of guys that would be on my list and I realized that I don't have nearly as many people on my personal list as I expected. I made a list of guys who are for consideration and I ended up with like 108 guys. Sarge is safe.

Good Will Wrestling: The Legend of Dick Murdoch
goodhelmet replied to soup23's topic in Publications and Podcasts
Great reading there. On the Mid South 8 mm footage that Bix converted there is a great interview showing Dick injured and Dusty cuts the "that's blood" promo as a result. When did Dusty and Dick reunite in Mid South against I think the Samoans.- 201 replies

Kris... we need to take all of this information and write a super long Murdoch Manifesto for next year if Dick comes up short this year.- 201 replies

Phil or Childs. .. which one is in the Futen headbutt tag? That one is the best.

You know i considered putting Goldberg on my list so i see where Marvin is coming from.

I think the Valentine feud saves him. It wasn't just a couple of title changes and gimmick matches. It was a legitimate weekly (at the very least monthly) year long feud that helped give credibility to the IC title. There are very few, if any, WWF feuds that were as good as Tito - Valentine in the history of the promotion.

I would comfortably rank Davey Richards above him.

The Usos don't have the best scaffold match ever on their resume or the bloody Fabs feud.

I don't see Loss taking a year long sabbatical to go post at the Figure 4 board. It would be closer to Hogan joining the NWO as crow Loss stalks us from the rafters.

Well, since Joe left the territory after throwing out the challenge, I had to turn on my tag team partner to keep things fresh. I imagine once Joe comes back and we start feuding over the legacy of this company, you and I will form an uneasy alliance to combat the vagabond Bruiser Brody-like no selling Joe before he runs out of the territory demanding a bigger payoff.

He would also tell me Masato Tanaka was a better wrestler than Jumbo Tsuruta, that UFC is just like wrestling in the old days and that ECW was the greatest place he ever worked. He would still probably punch me in the face though.

I think what it also tells us is that Murdoch was good enough to be put in world title positions but not going to hold the strap. However, would Murdoch holding the strap for a month, 6 months, a year in between Brisco, Funk or Race reigns look out of the ordinary? Not really.- 201 replies

I wonder if that Flair title match in 85 is the one that Joel Watts left in his car and melted under the hot sun. If not...maybe there are more Watts title matches to uncover in that time period.- 201 replies

I think it is one of the matches Terry Jr. Took off youtube. I have it preserved on my MOTY set for that year.

My favorite match is the Akiyama match from 2001 which is my MOTY for that year. What match are you talking about?

I know it has been awhile since the Memphis set but he really had some remarkable performances in Memphis and a great tag feud with the PYT's vs. New Fabs. He faded after that but he isa Memphis guy that i Don't want to leave out.

I really want to do the tag team podcast now because I think it is much more difficult to do a tag list than a singles list because of the complexities of keeping a team together long enough to be memorable.

Kris, when you get back to this, answer these questions that were posed in the thread. Take all the time you need. How many world title shots did he have in his career? Who were they against? In what towns/buildings? Give us a list of the top feuds/rivalries How often was Murdoch really a top gaijin? How does his run in Mid-South in 85 make for positive ammunition as a HOFer? How much of his drawing power was attributed to being put on top of a hot promotion? Elaborate on this statement... the normal towns were up, but big shows were down. Give us a breakdown of why he was so revered in Japan if you can or how important he was in Japan. Argue this point from shoe...- 201 replies

Terry totally carried this team but I will admit... I love watching Dory getting the piss beat out of him. It made that dumb expression on his face logical. It was like the opponents were beating that dumb look onto him.
