Dolfan in NYC Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 If that Doink showed up at the Rumble, I would die a happy man. 1
Gonzalez Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Hey, kids. it's the world's second best Doink. Jarrett?
Matt D Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 Yeah, skip to 2:30 or so. FWIW, that Kwang/Razor match is pretty good actually save for the problems at the end. It was a pretty good way to start a feud, actually. This was right around the same time that Albano came out with the Headshrinkers to challenge the Quebecers and IRS destroyed the headdress and beat up Tanaka and Strongbow to start that feud and Michaels help Diesel win the IC belt from Razor and Earthquake came out to challenge Yoko. If the Perfect/Luger feud hadn't fallen through it would have been a really strong month or two for WWF angles. Apparently it bore out as that was the first year they did a Wrestlemania Revenge tour and according to Meltzer it did great numbers touring in a usually very slow time of year. (They had Bret vs Owen on top and Luger vs Crush after Perfect dropped out).

Curt McGirt Posted January 17, 2014 Posted January 17, 2014 GODDAMMIT ALL THE FOOTAGE WE DON'T HAVE ON THE LUCHA SET BLOWS. Hey, at least Brazos/Bucaneros take up a good chunk of the last disc with one being a hair match and one being a Super Libre, so we've probably got our share of one half of that match bleeding.
Graham Crackers Posted January 17, 2014 Posted January 17, 2014 GODDAMMIT ALL THE FOOTAGE WE DON'T HAVE ON THE LUCHA SET BLOWS. Hey, at least Brazos/Bucaneros take up a good chunk of the last disc with one being a hair match and one being a Super Libre, so we've probably got our share of one half of that match bleeding. Not the easiest fancam footage to watch and that's probably why it didn't make the set. And the Brazos vs Bucaneros stuff is fucking awesome.
Graham Crackers Posted January 17, 2014 Posted January 17, 2014 I've never seen a picture of Pepe from before he became a referee. It's crazy how much Felino looks like him unmasked.
Tromatagon Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 What the fuck dude Kevin is wearing boots 1
DouglasC Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 The joy of checking old file folders, and seeing insanity from SPWC. I wonder what an autographed poster of the Lantern Ghost would go for on ebay.
Peck Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Three years before the Lawler feud: Guarantee Andy fucked with the toupee.

sydneybrown Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Is there a video of this? Interview starts at 51:42. My mind was blown that there is an Andy Kaufman WWF appearance, and that he cuts a heel promo pretty similar to his Memphis stuff. 3
MADCAP Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Boy, if only there could have been a Andy Kaufman/Rhonda Rousey match...
