Final show for AWA. Some time this week, we'll do the first lucha viewing party. The final matches to be ranked are as follows...

 

Nick Bockwinkel vs. Jim Brunzell (6/11/81)

Adrian Adonis vs. Jim Brunzell (6/28/81)

Jerry Blackwell vs. Billy Robinson (12/3/81)

Nick Bockwinkel vs. Billy Robinson (12/25/81)

Hulk Hogan, Buck Zumhoffe & Baron Von Raschke vs. Bobby Heenan, Ken Patera & Bobby Duncum (2/28/82)

Nick Bockwinkel vs. Hulk Hogan (4/18/82)

Jerry Blackwell & Sheik Adnan Al-Kaissie vs. High Flyers (Cage Match) (4/18/82)

Tito Santana & Rick Martel vs. High Flyers (8/29/82)

 

 

We were all in consensus that all of the matches were well worth watching. Nobody had the 8 matches ranked in the same order. Hell, in some cases, not even close. Still what a fun way to end the set because this disc smoked those 1989 matches.

I listened to this entire podcast just to listen to your reaction to the Mother of All Dropkicks. You guys did not disappoint. I can't wait to follow along with the Lucha set.

Fuck, who has a better drop kick than Jim Brunzell?

[Smack2k]

I dont know if anyone has a better one...but one that wasnt mentioned was Bob Holly's....he had a really really nice one.
