Tabe Posted August 25, 2015 Report Posted August 25, 2015 So yea today's new match is Ron Garvin vs. The Missing Link. I somehow missed that Garvin had some matches in Houston. Looking forward to checking that out. This one aired on Power Pro Wrestling on 8/2/86. It's basically a long squash for Link. Weirdly one-sided.
shoe Posted August 25, 2015 Report Posted August 25, 2015 Cool , I'll add it when I get home. You've been a lot of help with the dates .
Tabe Posted August 25, 2015 Report Posted August 25, 2015 Cool , I'll add it when I get home. You've been a lot of help with the dates . Glad to help in any way I can.
JerryvonKramer Posted August 26, 2015 Report Posted August 26, 2015 The Ronnie Garvin in this match bears virtually no relation to the one I know.
goc Posted August 26, 2015 Report Posted August 26, 2015 You guys sure know how to kill my enthusiasm for watching a match.
JerryvonKramer Posted August 26, 2015 Report Posted August 26, 2015 It really surprised me that this was 1983 and he just looked so different. He's stacked too, looks more like Paul Orndorff than Ron Garvin,
goc Posted August 27, 2015 Report Posted August 27, 2015 Where was the warning that Rip Rogers didn't have bleached blonde hair in that Johnny Rich match!? That really threw me off for a minute.
Matt D Posted August 27, 2015 Report Posted August 27, 2015 Taylor vs Volkoff is very cool for the crowd. It has a good start and a good end and a sort of frustrating middle with endless chinlocking. I wrote this back in 2011 (which is forever ago) about Taylor at right about that time from watching Mid South TV. http://russianflagburial.blogspot.com/2011/06/terry-taylot-mid-souths-wyatt-earp.html Don't judge me too harshly on it.
Matt D Posted August 28, 2015 Report Posted August 28, 2015 No match yesterday, which is okay. It happens sometimes. Tharpe and co. are busy. It's funny that he said on twitter, in response to someone "Everyday!" on when new matches would go up on the first day in a while that they didn't post one, but it happens. But then, today is Terry Taylor vs Tom Lintz. Like a kick to the gut.
goc Posted August 28, 2015 Report Posted August 28, 2015 Don't be hating on my Southwest roster member Tom "Bommer Lynch" Lintz like that. As far as I can recall yesterday was also the first day they didn't have a new match uploaded. I can't get too upset especially when there were 2-3 a day for a short while there. I'm more disappointed about 2 Terry Taylor (yuck) matches in a row more than a match with Tom Lintz.
shoe Posted August 28, 2015 Report Posted August 28, 2015 They made good and put up Chavo vs Jessie Barr for historic purposes is cool.
Matt D Posted August 29, 2015 Report Posted August 29, 2015 Chavo's jumping kick to the back of the head was awesome. Some great arm drags in that match too. It was basic (and had that Guerrero stuttering heat thing) but I liked it.*
goc Posted August 29, 2015 Report Posted August 29, 2015 I watched the Tom Lintz vs. Terry Taylor match. Super short squash but short matches & Terry Taylor are a good combination. Still surprised that a guy as big and expressive as Lintz never really got a push anywhere outside of Southeastern/Continental.

goc Posted August 29, 2015 Report Posted August 29, 2015 They just uploaded 3 matches today, the whole 3 match series between Butch Reed vs. Jim Neidhart from Houston that followed their breakup as a tag team.

W2BTD Posted August 30, 2015 Report Posted August 30, 2015 Jax Dane beat Tenzan for the NWA World Title tonight in San Antonio, and Tharpe says the match will be uploaded to NWA Classics.
shoe Posted August 30, 2015 Report Posted August 30, 2015 That's cool . I was thinking of going to the show because of that match, and the Red vs Andy Dalton match.
goc Posted August 30, 2015 Report Posted August 30, 2015 Ohhh man that Hector Guerrero vs. Jose Lothario Texas Death Match was so good. If you're reading this and haven't signed up for NWAClassics.com...what the hell are you doing with your life? It's only $8.99 a month!
goc Posted August 30, 2015 Report Posted August 30, 2015 The ring announcer couldn't have looked more confused while reading the rules for the Duggan/Akbar match. To be fair they were some pretty odd stipulations. This was a lot of fun for what it was. Duggan has one of the best "I've had enough of your shit, now eat my fist" punches ever in wrestling. Not saying ALL of his punches are the best but that one big haymaker that you know it when you see it. Who the heck ran in at the end with a cattle prod? Pretty crazy stuff.
Matt D Posted August 30, 2015 Report Posted August 30, 2015 I'd love to see that gimmick where the second turns heel on the babyface.
