driver Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Terry Funk vs. Dusty Rhodes, Texas Death Match, Atlanta, 1980. Wraparound with Funk and Gordon Solie and then Dusty at the end. Calling that crowd hot would be an understatement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DangerMark Posted March 6, 2022 Share Posted March 6, 2022 On 1/23/2022 at 10:26 PM, Cobra Commander said: Considering that they recorded the Raw commentary for taped shows on the day of the show (or they did the commentary live!-ish)... there's probably a bit of a "we're not bringing either of these wrestlers back" all over the commentary of that match. That explains it, there is no way on earth that Lawler would have chattered so much rot if he even suspected that Aja Kong might be in the same state as him.

Gordi the former AEW fan Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Here's something you don't see every day: Austin Idol and Tommy Rich vs TMII and Kabuki. More of an interesting historical curiosity than anything else, in my opinion. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragonzombie Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 1 hour ago, Contentious C said: What happened to Omori anyway? Injuries? Just not over despite matches like this? He left to join NOAH, and was kicked out of NOAH eventually in 2002 (one of the reasons because of his stopping the match with Shinya in 2000), falling out with Misawa. He was supposed to be one of Misawa's projects. He joined multiple promotions over the years, keep in mind backstage politics and who gets what in the other promotions, hierarchy, people mad at him, etc. He starred in movies. Since 2011 he has been with AJPW. He mainevented for some while and won the Triple Crown once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 Never thought he was that great but the breakup angle between him and Takayama was pretty good. He also gave the world Adam Page's Deadeye (AKA the Axe Guillotine Driver, one of the coolest move names ever). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodyChamp Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 I don’t think I’ve ever seen a belly to belly truly from the top rope. One guy is usually on the second rope. I did see it tried and the 2 guys almost died doing it. It was RVD and Jerry Lynn so of course they hopped right back up as soon as the smell of death went away. I don’t know how I forgot about this because that was a move I always wanted to see somebody try. And it was by 2 guys I’d have never thought would even be in the ring together let alone trying this, successfully. What a great TV match. Up there with the best ones Nitro had for so long. It was stiff as heck to. Everybody saw the power moves I bet but also Meng’s feet weren’t planted for a single one of the flying attacks and they went WHAM lol! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Barbarian did a HUGE top rope belly to belly on Sting on the Nitro after Slamboree 1996. Launched Stinger to the other side of the ring. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shane Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 This may or may not be "new" to a lot of folks here, but I watched it for the first time today and...holy shit! One of my favorite matches ever. I think I like it more than the Dog Collar match, too. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 If you squint, Roddy looks like Misawa with that gear. And wow, the HEAT of that match! That low-angle camera looking at Roddy's face is so dramatic. And somebody else famous from Mid-Atlantic sure stole a lot of stuff from his tag partner...
