PetrolCB Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Bunkhouse match from the Nassau Coliseum in '87, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colonial Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 IIRC, it was from a bunkhouse battle royal at Nassau Coliseum in 1988. WWF Magazine had pics from that battle royal, and I'm pretty sure Don Muraco is wearing the Jets jersey (it was a Mark Gastineau #99 jersey, but it said "The Rock" on the back). The Rougeaus are wearing the NY Islanders jerseys (they just started their "we love the USA" gimmick around the time of this match and were still faces). Not seen but from what I remember in the magazine - Lanny Poffo in a suit of armor. JD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 I was quietly told by a friend in sixth grade that that was the right way to do it, and that my more relaxed and round-knuckled version was embarrassing everyone. I didn't buy it, but I went with the crowd. Zeidler, you've made me realize I've been conflicted about this for years. It's caused me to be really withholding with my emotions. Hold on, I think I may be on the verge of a real breakthrough here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clintthecrippler Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Anyone know what match this is from? And who is the guy in the Jets helmet? I love that in the "bunkhouse battle royal/come in your street clothes" match that Dangerous Danny Davis wrestled in his old bowtie/dress shirt referee getup. That is a pretty spectacular kayfabe gimmick right there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 That match was on the "most unusual WWF matches" (or whatever) tape they put out back in the day. I rented it when I was a kid, it had that, a female wrestlers match with a powerbomb finish that they treated as unusual (ha!), and two Race/Hogan Texas death matches that blew goats. DVDVR actually reviewed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DVDVR actually reviewed it. I remember that tape. The Hogan/Race death match was from MSG and The Fink did this whole thing before the introductions about how people in the first couple of rows should get up and stand in the back because they could not guarantee their safety during the match. I seem to remember the Hogan/Race match from Boston being a little better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piranesi Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 This is a warning poster they put up in schools, right? Like Mr. Yuk? "Hey kids, what do you do when you see Jumpsuit Man? "RUN!" "That's right! And what do you do when you see Carpeted-Van Man?" "RUN!" "That's Right! And what do you do when the two are combined?" "WHAT? THAT HAPPENS???? I CAN'T....I DON'T...." 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGFanJay Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Moments later, Les turned into a giant hot dog. The state of the front-butts. Wow. Superstar Bill Dundee wants YOU, to, uh, check out the interior of his slick, soundproof shaggin' wagon. To be fair to Bill, given Jerry's payoff, he may have been living in it and just wanted to be comfortable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
