The most notable thing about this show is that among all the tiny dumps the WWF taped television in from late '93-'95, this special has to be the absolute worst. It looks like it's coming from an industrial warehouse basement somewhere. That and maybe the surprise finish to Crush-Bret. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeteF3 Posted March 21, 2019 Report Share Posted March 21, 2019 My memories and cursory re-examination over the years indicate that this place (in Loch Sheldrake, New York, apparently at the Community College) made the Fernwood Resort look like Cowboys Stadium.

paul sosnowski Posted March 21, 2019 Report Share Posted March 21, 2019 They split the taping, some of the matches were from the Mid-Hudson Civic Center in Poughkeepsie and the rest from Loch Sheldrake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peachchaos Posted March 27, 2019 Report Share Posted March 27, 2019 That's more like it. 1996 Austin is pretty much my favorite worker and all we've ever seen between him and Michaels from that year are a short Raw match and a stinker from Kuwait. Highest hopes for this one delivering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 Magee is interesting because there are parts of him that are impressive. Good physique guy who was acrobatic, he’s out there doing junior heavyweight spots. But in between he’s as unnatural as any wrestler I’ve ever seen.

Johnny Sorrow Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 I'm sorry, but I don't get why so many people are going nuts about the Magee/ Hart match being found. I totally understand that it's cool that it turned up. But it's just a young Bret Hart bumping around for a stiff. It's a super cool find, but I'm the long run, who cares? I'm not sure I even buy the whole, " That's my next Champion " bit. I can't see Vince thinking "Tom Magee...That's a name that'll sell dolls!" If only Magee came in with a name like Dingo Warrior.

It's like finding definitive proof Bigfoot exists. Even if it ends up being a really tall homeless guy or some kind of defomed bear, you finally are able to get resolution of a long standing urban legend. No one was expecting it to be a five star classic, we already knew from what was available that Magee sucked. The appeal was all "Bret is so good he got an acceptable match out of THAT guy". 14 minutes ago, Ricky Jackson said: Megaman was the name he also went by and would've been his name as a star if he hadn't been too crappy to be seriously pushed Capcom would have had something to say about that.

I will say that I think two or three years from now we'll look back at the Austin vs Michaels match that just dropped last week as a more significant historical find than the Magee vs Bret match. Obvious i say that without seeing the Bret match, but I also say it as a bigger Bret fan than a Michaels fan. That match gave us an abnormal Michaels performance (and really an abnormal transitory Austin performance). I think we're all pretty sure what the Bret performance will be like and it won't tell us anything new. If anything, it likely won't live up to the hype and we'll think worse of it.

He was in World's Strongest Man from 1982-85 and watching replays of those is why I'd heard of him before I knew he had ever become a wrestler later, and I'm almost sure I knew him as Megaman from that.

Cornette's racket Posted April 4, 2019 Report Share Posted April 4, 2019 The hidden gems for April 4th 2019 according to WWE network news are the full press conferences of wrestlemania 2,3,and 4. Also the superstar taping where lex Luger had the belt presented to him by vince McMahon prior to WM X.Also, razor Ramon asking roddy piper to make a match between him and goldust at WM 12. I mean those last two are certainly what I'd call hidden gems from the vault. Also, the dark match before WM 9 with Tito Santana vs papa shango with Jim Ross on commentary.
