OSJ Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 On 3/19/2020 at 7:34 PM, DEAN said: Harley Race was the world champion of my childhood. I remember being a tiny little fat boy when he came into the Mid-Atlantic territory and had a match on TV versus Wahoo McDaniel and I remember it being he best match I had ever seen. I'm guessing it was like this but without the blood and the clean finish. Yes, these were two wrestling machines. I am about eight or nine years older, young DEAN! so I recall a decade or so when the question was "If you could pick any one person in the world to have your back in a bar-fight who would it be?" The answer was of course, Harley Race. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Comedian Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Well when I think of a wrestling machine I generally think Misawa, so here's a match I stumbled upon the other day, which as far as I know is the only time he faced future NJPW ace/budding wrestling machine Hiroshi Tanahashi...

DEAN Posted March 26, 2020 Author Share Posted March 26, 2020 The Super Destroyer (Don Jardine) takes on Jerry Brisco. Jardine is a machine that also loads his mask to set up his claw hold. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEAN Posted March 28, 2020 Author Share Posted March 28, 2020 Hey! I remember this when I was 9. Wahoo wasn't the one to ACTUALLY unmask the Super Destroyer. That was #1 Paul Jones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 (edited) Rick Martel should be in this conversation. EDIT: This is crazy, but the commentary guy lets loose that Rick Martel started when he was 17 and if you do the math he'd been wrestling 13 years at this point. Which makes his WCW run seem really awesome. Edited March 28, 2020 by Curt McGirt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 I love how big a star Martel feels like in that match. Likewise in this match, which I love (but this version seems shorter than I remember), where the Funks beat the crap out of Zenk but treat Martel with total respect. I've never actually seen this one, but I want to: 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thee Reverend Axl Future Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Holy Mother Russia, that match is so great that I am convinced that if everybody in Amerika watched it at once, the quarantine would be over and we would have a new President who made pro wrestling the new national sport. - RAF 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 The rising shrieks when the heel team uses underhanded tactics like double team choking Ted on the top rope or, better yet, using the turnbuckle from the second rope falling off or the chair later on... just a pro wrestler's dream. Dr. Death was as wide as a brick shithouse, god damn. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
