SirEdger Posted September 3, 2017 Report Share Posted September 3, 2017 Anyone who played Pro Wrestling on the NES definitely got a kick of seeing the name of Starman on your TV this week. I know I did! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowBlowPodcast Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 I love the Starman cameo for sure. I appreciate the condensed presentation of your show and what you've got going on. I love seeing Bam Bam over here and doing well before he heads back to Japan. Interested to see what happens with David long term and how he is built and then utilized.

But first we will take a look at some action from Beach Brawl in Miami, Florida: UWF Southern Heavyweight Championship Mr. Olympia Vs. Freddie Blassie's Mystery Challenger "Classy" Freddie Blassie's mystery challenger turned out to be the legendary former multiple time World Champion "Handsome" Harley Race! Race went on to pin Mr. Olympia after a piledriver to win the UWF Southern Heavyweight Championship =============================================================== Fritz Von Erich joins Marc to announce that not only is wrestling back in Dallas but it will soon be returning to Amarillo and Houston as well…..Big news coming next week!! But, speaking of big news….Fritz announces that the "American Dream" Dusty Rhodes will be teaming up with the one and only "MODERN DAY WARRIOR" KERRY VON ERICH to take on Bruno/David Sammartino at the David Von Erich Parade of Champions at Reunion Arena in Dallas on Sunday September 22nd! Fritz says we're going to take a look at Kerry in recent action, right now! (Footage courtesy of WWF Wrestling Challenge) Kerry Von Erich vs The Missing Link w/ Gary Hart (in a slick new suit) -Let the rumors run rampant as Gary Hart is dressed to the 9s. He has got a slick new outfit on and he has got his man, the Missing Link ready to go. We see Link give Kerry a good run for his money, but Link doesn’t have what it takes to go up against the Modern Day Warrior. We see Kerry get the crowd going before delivering a couple of HUGE shots including that flying “Warrior Punch” as he calls it now that puts Link down and then Kerry locks in the claw and gets the 3-count. =============================================================== Marc Lowrance says we're going to take a look at the match that led to the Main Event next week in Dallas, the match from Beach Brawl in Miami, Florida: SEMI-MAIN EVENT THE RECKONING STEEL CAGE FINAL SHOWDOWN Special Referee: Bruno Sammartino "The American Dream" Dusty Rhodes Vs. "The Living Legacy" David Sammartino As the match started David tried to climb out of the cage but Bruno pulled him back down and shouted at him "fight like a man!", Dusty controlled most of the match with some offense from David scattered here and there….both men were bloodied after being raked against the cage..Bruno mostly stayed out of the way and let them fight…but when it looked like Dusty was about to get the win, David reached in his trunks and pulled out the 'knux' that's been scoring him victories lately….Dusty grabbed his arm and pried the knux out of David's hand and then handed them to Bruno……Dusty then locked a sleeper on David in the center of the ring……Bruno lifted David's arm once and it dropped, he lifted it a 2nd time…and it dropped…..as he Bruno lifted David's arm a third time with his left arm….from out of nowhere he came around with a right with the knux on his fist and knocked Dusty out cold….David falls back on top of Dusty as he goes down….Bruno slowly counts…1---2--3!!! The Orlando crowd is IN SHOCK!! At first there's just stunned silence and then it turned into a near riot as fans threw things at the cage and some started trying to rush the cage and security and local police fought to escort the Sammartinos out of the cage and back to the locker room ================================================================= Marc Lowrance runs down the card for this Monday night in Birmingham, Alabama: CCW Fall Brawl Tour 1985 Boutwell Auditorium Birmingham, AL.
