KrisZ Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 Kris & David are joined by Rob Naylor (WWN Live) to discuss the week that was December 29, 1986 – January 4, 1987. We discuss the chances that Wrestlemania III gets cancelled because of Andre the Giant’s injury, Paul Orndorff’s shoulder issues, AJPW & NJPW gaijin wackiness, Jesse Ventura in Arnold movies, all sorts of territory goodness especially our love of Continental, & Rob’s love of Vladimir Petrov. This is a very fun show!!!!

PeteF3 Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 Add Winnipeg to the Jake/Hogan market list--there's a Jake promo for it out there. The strongest evidence in favor of the DDT Snake Pit existing (which I know isn't really that up for debate) is that in the Providence promo, Ken Resnick makes mention of Hogan taking powder to the eyes on the Pit and gaining revenge on Jake by doing the same to him in the clip shown. And we know they *did* do localized angles on occasion, though the only others I can think of are Killer Khan misting Hogan on another Snake Pit and Hillbilly Jim taking down Andre with the horseshoe on the interview podium. But those aired in Boston and NYC respectively, which is why those are in wider circulation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra Commander Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 I ended up on Weird YouTube to find footage of Mitch Snow's finishing move (which seems like the mix of a judo throw and a powerslam). If you're unsure about weird YouTube, it's the videos cited in the JCP segment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 That Ricky Steamboat "Sidekicks" appearance sounded so made-up, I'm shocked it actually happened. How is this not something that is constantly brought up when discussing wrestlers on non-wrestling TV shows? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bix Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 Ah yes, he was Primo, not Sambo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pantherwagner Posted January 5, 2016 Report Share Posted January 5, 2016 Without spoiling too much, the youtube lifestyle wrestling discussion at the end was the funniest thing you guys have ever done. I had to stop the podcast several times to avoid cracking up at work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBadMick Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 You sure Dean Malenko refereed Hogan/Funk at SNME in Jan 86? Looks awfully like Hebner to me..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to stop the podcast several times to avoid cracking up at work. That segment has to make the Best of BtS that Bix wants to put together either this past year or this current year.

Hegs Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 When you guys were talking about Hogan cage matches, he did have one with Muraco in the Garden that I'm pretty sure was pre WM2. I think I have it on tape somewhere but it was the classics 3 match Garden formula. It was the chain link type change. I'd have to search through my old recordings to see what the finish was exactly, but it wasn't over the top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbenn123 Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 You sure Dean Malenko refereed Hogan/Funk at SNME in Jan 86? Looks awfully like Hebner to me..... I think I remember seeing a Steele vs. Savage (not from SNME) match that had Malenko as ref. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Dog Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 You guys needed some sexy music in the background when you were reading the wrestling lifestyle stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrisZ Posted January 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 Malenko reffed the Savage/Steele match that's right!!!! Hebner did referee the Hogan/Funk match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to stop the podcast several times to avoid cracking up at work. I was going to complain about why there wasn't a Youtube playlist of this podcast but after the last hour I might be glad that we didn't get one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peachchaos Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 I love the Hogan-Funk matches, I think we have 3 on tape (MSG, MLG, SNME). They work some tags with Dory and JYD that are pretty decent too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have to search through my old recordings to see what the finish was exactly, but it wasn't over the top It was MSG 21st June '85. Finish was Hogan and Muraco struggling at the door, and Hogan walked out after punching Muraco back into the ring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrisZ Posted January 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 And the Hogan/Muraco match was a plotpoint for an episode of the NBC soap opera Another World Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuckScumm Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 Not sure if he was the Motor City Madman, but the name you guys were thinking of was Tombstone, not Doomsday. Was definitely CWF,not PWF though. Pretty sure Heyman was loosely affiliated with Humperdink as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted January 10, 2016 Report Share Posted January 10, 2016 Halfway through now. I love that even though Rob and I couldn't look at wrestling more differently a lot of the times, there are things we both love, like the Demolition vs Brainbusters SNME match or the god damn Jam Slam. It's a travesty he couldn't get Mojo Rawley to do it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blazer Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 Great episode. Rob's super funny. I just wished his connection was a bit better, as he faded out a bit at times and it was hard to here him. As a 12-yr old mark kid, I thought Funk was going to beat Hogan on that SNME. I thought he had him after the piledriver. As a former NWA champ, Funk made sense in getting the belt, but alas it was not to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eegah Posted January 11, 2016 Report Share Posted January 11, 2016 Great show as per usual, high points were the Memphis talk, Bam Bam's peak as a rookie and the gay youtube scene causing Kris to laugh like a school girl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
