odessasteps Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 This is worth watching to see the two doughy white guys “The Boogie Woogie Men” dancing to the ring to Electricity by Midnight Star. I’m not kidding. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not kidding. Holy shit that was awesome. Also great was the pop for "Rock n Roll is King" and the silence when the fans realized it wasn't the Rock n Roll Express lol Edit: my bad...the RnRs only started teaming in 83 so I'm probably off on this. But it's still funny to me Edited July 14, 2022 by Infinit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm getting all the Armstrong Alley uploads on my feed, and it's crazy the amount of just random indies there were after the territories were done. Two weekends ago now, I was somehow watching Texas Championship Wrestling from 1990 with a green ass Steve Austin & Rod Price against the Simpson Brothers at like one in the morning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 The Gary Hart Texas stuff is probably the “most professional” of all the stuff posted so far, except for the ring announcer/interviewer who has an odd charisma despite being bad at those jobs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's still funny to me Funny thing is it looks like the RnRs are featured in the opening of the show doing a double drop kick right after the Elvis gimmick. Maybe that's the Boogie Woogies then. Scratch that, Southern Sensations it is. I don't know the manager's name but you could definitely hear the Macho Man-isms.

Happ Hazzard Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Iceman Parsons and Lanny Poffo vs Jim Neidhart and Butch Reed. Good but fairly nondescript match from 1983 Mid-South TV but notable for being the first match where Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler worked as commentary duo. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man I loved Iceman... but did anyone find it funny that it was Parsons that leaped over the top rope and not Leaping Lanny? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driver Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 In that era MS you hear the interactions with Georgia(DiBiase and The Road Warriors) and balance that with what we got with the Memphis swap and wonder what would've happened if JR and Gordon Solie had joined forces, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiji Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Does anybody have a link to or, if they are feeling extra kind, could upload the handheld footage of Tony Halme vs. Shinya Hashimoto from 1991-02-05? I read the Segunda Caida review and would love to watch but it's not online anymore by the looks of it. If this is inappropriate for this thread, I apologize in advance.

colonial Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 It's pro wrestling from the Philippines, which is actually half wrestling, half weight training trips and hard sells for unisex vitamins and rubbing alcohol. And this comes from a U.S. broadcast, so we have ads for syndie stables like Zamfir and Encyclopedia Britannica. CRACKER NUTS! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra Commander Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 congrats to ArmstrongAlley on his new fanbase of Pinoy Wrestling fans. Or at least that's how it worked out for @DEANwhen he uploaded some of that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinit Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 This RVD/Sabu stuff from 1991 that was posted is mind blowing. Look at those spots in these clips...and imagine seeing them in 1991. Crazy. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onelegbrynn Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 (edited) Found this while searching for old indy stuff on YouTube. It's from the old HWA in Cincinnati in 2006: Chad Allegra (Karl Anderson) & Rocky Romero vs. Nigel McGuinness & Chad Collyer Edited August 10, 2022 by onelegbrynn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
