DEAN Posted August 30, 2020 Author Share Posted August 30, 2020 Goddam! Florida 1973. Buddy Colt and Eddie Graham try to see which one makes the cover of THE WRESTLER next month. Paul Jones adds to the craziness. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LP Steve Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 And Murdoch knocking himself silly with a chair! That was a fun time to be a fan in Florida. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEAN Posted August 30, 2020 Author Share Posted August 30, 2020 I was figuring this was going in the Wrestling Machine thread but then Dory Funk Jr OPTS to bleed like a freak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Four minutes of bloodshed. The age of the film makes it hard to parse, but it looks like Stomper stuck his head in a bucket of red paint. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 A fun house show main that starts as Dreamer vs. Corino and ends up four-on-four with Dusty Rhodes (!) coming out to even the odds at the end. Corino, Victory and Jack bleed with scumbag RF getting nice closeups of everything. Dreamer hilariously puts the Tarantula on Tajiri which is probably the most complicated thing I've ever seen him do in a ring. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Aaaaaaaaand we got HARDWAY~! The Diet Butcher (or Hindu Hurricane?) is definitely a Wrestling Machine, too. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Holy shit. I've never seen a Cage of Death aside from the ROH one and this is completely bonkers. The construction of it is really cool and surprisingly elaborate. There are things in it you won't notice until somebody bumps into/through them so there are a few surprise spots. My apologies for posting a Sami match because I'm not a fan either, and another jerk shows up at the end, but this is too wild to not give an eye to. And Danny is dead and all too (RIP). Make sure to stick around at the end for the footage of all the big spots in slow-mo and the Bactine-ing of their disgusting wounds. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEAN Posted September 2, 2020 Author Share Posted September 2, 2020 The Mongolian Stomper makes with the claw; thus, Dick Slater makes with the claw blood! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thee Reverend Axl Future Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 The Mongolian Stomper looks like a low polygon henchman from 90s video game. He was carved from a big granite block of Brutishness with an obsidian adze. What a presence - born to a wrestler by looks alone and always looked menacing in a photo. Don Carson - what a head of hair, & vastly overlooked. Where is Stomper's furry vest now? And when was he called The Midnight Stallion? Was that a masked gimmick? Wait, I found this: $15,000 vs. Van? That must have some sweet ride. - RAF 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thee Reverend Axl Future Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 (Sorry, this fascinates me, I am sure there was color at least once on this card) Was it this van? Also, poor Chick Don(ovan). Eddie Hogan = Ed Leslie. I really want to see Robley vs. NAustin, and RIP Bob Armstrong. - RAF 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 (edited) This is another Segunda Caida Special, originally uploaded by Tim Evans but I found a single file version. Primera is the rudo beatdown, segunda is the rudo stooging/technico superiority fall, tercera is Arandu deciding to gnaw Super Astro's forehead clean off. I love love love Super Astro.

Death From Above Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I notice Silver King is often the guy not bleeding, but punching the guy that is bleeding. I think Silver King is the only smart wrestler. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 (edited) MJeff proves he can bleed too. EDIT: Also includes the hilarious call "punishing the perineum" from Ex. Edited September 8, 2020 by Curt McGirt 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Dustin Rhodes vs. Buckhouse Bunk, Bunkhouse Match, starts after the end of Rude/Sting at the jump of the first video. Buck bleeds a little while Dustin comes close enough to that AEW match above... well, really, not so much but that one was ridiculous. The irony is Dustin would be fired next year for him and Blacktop Bully bleeding in the infamous King of the Road match, AKA Match On A Moving Truck. On a brand new PPV show entitled Uncensored, at that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone needs to tell Sami that when you're 5'4 crouching down isn't really a good look. This match could have been improved by Mr. Pogo doing a run-in with his scythe. It's a rule of wrestling, all garbage matches are automatically improved by the addition of Mr. Pogo and various gardening implements such as the TROWEL OF TORMENT or the WEED-WHACKER OF WOE! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 I'm surprised there wasn't a weed whacker in that match. Does anyone know what match it was where Moxley got his nipple hacked off with the weed whacker (and he had to sew back on)? I don't want to see it, so it'd be nice to know what to avoid...
