DEAD CROCKETT CUP: JOBBED TO DEATH (Group H)

[RIPPA]

Please vote in all the match-ups. It kinda works better if you do.

 

Feel free to debate the merits of the teams below

Man... Louie & Candido vs. Hennig & Gilbert.  Had to give that one some thought.

Yeah, this.

 

I admit that as much as I enjoyed the Trainer/Schlub gimmick of Skip and Radford, the Super Boys [were they ever actually called that or was that just something I randomly recall from the Apter mags/early '80's wrestling books?) are a team I wish I had seen more footage of.

[DEAN]

Jesus, I totally forgot Steve Bradley died.

 

Voted a straight Link line.  He was too awesome to be believed.

[Pete]

Was tempted to do that too, but I picture YOUNG LIONS Gilbert and Hennig pulling the upset over them. It'd be a fun tag match to open a 1982 MSG house show.

[Goodear]

Is there any Hercules/Missing Link footage anywhere?  I couldn't find any at the usual suspects.

[Matt D]

yeah, man, I want to see Link/Herc. 

[EdA]

Is there any Hercules/Missing Link footage anywhere?  I couldn't find any at the usual suspects.

 

What we found from the Internet was Herc and Dewey Robinson were tag champs in Central States in 82.  So we are sort of cheating by calling Dewey Missing Link here...but there ya go.

 

And footage?  Lotsa luck.
