JerryvonKramer Posted June 22, 2015 Report Posted June 22, 2015 My other reason for taking him is that I figured he could work some west coast shows. Maybe some hideous matches against The Sheik. Quote
goc Posted June 22, 2015 Report Posted June 22, 2015 I think you should run Dean Ho vs. Billy Robinson. Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted June 22, 2015 Report Posted June 22, 2015 Robinson will be working my 70s AJPW Tribute tour with The Destroyer, Brisco and Dory Jr. Quote
goc Posted June 22, 2015 Report Posted June 22, 2015 Death of the territories by WWF takeover has never been more sure. Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted June 22, 2015 Report Posted June 22, 2015 Maybe now is the time for the long-awaited Baron Scicluna re-push, get him back up into the main event at MSG where he was in 1965. Quote
Flyin' Brian Posted June 22, 2015 Report Posted June 22, 2015 Well there goes Madril Be prepared for lots of Elvis Presley playing in the locker room. He was on my list and so was weingroff. Good picks at this stage I think. Quote
goc Posted June 22, 2015 Report Posted June 22, 2015 Madril is one of the most unlikeable babyfaces I have ever seen. I don't know what it is but it's just a thing. Quote
Matt D Posted June 22, 2015 Report Posted June 22, 2015 Right, but I have Steamboat and Ho could be like his uncle or something. Plus, some older fans might remember him. Steamboat's Uncle Ho is the worst gimmick I've heard in a while. It's even worse than my Ben Bass-Arab, American turncoat Sheik vs Bobby Bass, American Hero idea. Quote

Also consider it if you are after Boon. This is to your advantage. If I want your guy I won't take him simply because I will find someone else for myself to keep it moving. Quote
Grimmas Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 Is my pick gone because of the marcus brothers? Quote
goc Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 I would also like to admit that I tried to draft AROUND guys who would be going to Japan. That Eddie Gilbert tour snuck up on me but I know he isn't going to be going on a whole lot of them. Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 Kris, any idea where Tor Kamata was outside of that AJ tour? Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 Seem to recall that he was another guy like Toru Tanaka that did some acting work at some point. He was probably chilling in Hawaii and not wrestling when not on the AJ tours I reckon. Quote
goc Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 How's my average age doing now goc? 42.61 Without Steamboat or Backlund? 43.93 Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 Or maybe he was running a restuarant! During Kamaka's time in Calgary he opened an eatery called Tor's Teriyaki. After he left wrestling in 1987, he moved to Saskatoon where he opened a restaurant and a traditional Japanese hands-on-therapy business known as Shiatsu. Quote
KrisZ Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 Actually I just found a result with him working in Hawaii so yes Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 Speaking of Hawaii, I'm kind of interested in Lars Anderson. What happened to him? What was his deal? Why did he disappear off to Hawaii? Kind of a weirdly lost guy. When I said he could still go before, I actually got him confused with Keith Larson (and his appearance on Starrcade 84). He looked good in that silent match I watched from 72 vs. Pat Patterson. And I enjoyed the Ole turn involving him around 79-80, but I don't think I've seen a whole lot of Lars. Quote
KrisZ Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 He was booking for Lia Maivia and was extorting money from her at the same time. Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 Just found this: Lars is doing the interview. What promotion is that? Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 Seems like there's a bunch of him working for IWA in the mid-70s on youtube. Just watched him do quite a nice suplex. On the topic of the Andersons, has anyone ever seen Gene look anything but old, slow and not very good? He doesn't even look good on the Garbage Tapes footage. Quote
JerryvonKramer Posted June 23, 2015 Report Posted June 23, 2015 Peachchaos - here is Lars kicking the living shit out of your boy Gama Singh: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkipnF3LIPk Lars looks like he was a proper ass kicker. Can't believe I had him confused with Keith Larson. Quote
