JerryvonKramer Posted November 20, 2012 Report Posted November 20, 2012 Legit contender for worst NWA supercard of the 80s ... Where the Big Boys Play #21 - Bunkhouse Stampede 88 Chad and Parv talk about Bunkhouse Stampede 88. In this show: Chad talks about how he's basically "the mini Big Boss Man", some discussion of how tv ratings and PPV buyrates worked in the late 80s, evaluation of the roster at this time and how signing Ted DiBiase and Curt Hennig might have helped Crockett, Larry Zbyszko's ultimate ambition in life: to win the Western States Heritage title!, young Jim Ross's intense hyperbole, Chad rants about why Road Warrior Hawk is an idiot and Parv explains why he hates the Road Warriors in general, the mythical book of wrestling records, arguably the worst 10 minutes in wrestling broadcast history, why can't the Warlord's arms bend?, after 20 shows Chad finally lays into Dusty's massive ego, comparison with Royal Rumble 88, and end of show awards.

Jason Mann Posted November 30, 2012 Report Posted November 30, 2012 I was trying to figure that out before the podcast. Here's a key angle with Sullivan and Rotunda joining forces: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FF5qAsc4Pk4 I couldn't find the moment in which they start emphasizing the amateur backgrounds or add Rick Steiner to the group. Show on Clash 1 coming later today, but does anyone know how the Varsity Club formed? Quote
Loss Posted November 30, 2012 Report Posted November 30, 2012 Kevin Sullivan recruiting a bunch of meatheads to join a cult is a pretty awesome idea, I must say. Quote

It might have been even cooler if the jocks had eventually changed their looks/personalities and evolved into freaks. Well, one was Rick Steiner and the other became a wrestling accountant. Quote
