Flyin' Brian Posted May 28, 2016 Report Posted May 28, 2016 Was messing around with Booking Revolution (fun little game by the way) and a matchup that happened for me was Barry Windham vs Kerry Von Erich. That got me thinking that would be a great match I think, but it doesn't look like it ever happened. According to WrestlingData.com, they faced each other in tags in Championship Wrestling from Florida in May 1982. Does anyone know if any of those made tape?

goc Posted May 28, 2016 Report Posted May 28, 2016 That looks like it's during David's heel run in Florida, which is awesome and should be watched by everyone. I've seen most (but not all) of what is on youtube from that run and don't remember seeing anything with David vs. Barry. That match with Barry, Gran Apollo & Kerry Von Erich probably had a very large contingent of screaming female fans with those 3.
Cross Face Chicken Wing Posted May 28, 2016 Report Posted May 28, 2016 Booking Revolution has real wrestlers?
Flyin' Brian Posted May 29, 2016 Author Report Posted May 29, 2016 It does if you edit the names lol. Eric Kennedy = Kerry Von Erich and Bobby Widowmaker = Barry Windham

I noticed those when I was searching last night and have them saved to watch on vacation this week. Thanks. Hopefully whatever WWE has in the CWF library sees the light of day sometime.
Flyin' Brian Posted May 29, 2016 Author Report Posted May 29, 2016 Headed to Florida this week heard they have some awesome yard sales and flea markets around where we are staying, maybe I'll get lucky and find a wrestling fan with old vhs tapes. Lol
khawk20 Posted May 30, 2016 Report Posted May 30, 2016 Always good to look. Lots of people taped stuff, then lost interest. You never know.
flyonthewall2983 Posted May 30, 2016 Report Posted May 30, 2016 Were the Von Erich sons good heels? I just can't imagine Kerry delivering that type of promo.
goc Posted May 30, 2016 Report Posted May 30, 2016 I like David better as a heel than I do as a face. Kerry didn't really have a full run as a heel he just came in for a few weeks to support David but there is a heel promo or two from him in those youtube videos. Kevin never worked heel as far as I know.
