Road to Greensboro: Part 21 Hail to the World Champs

[Buckeyecat2002]

Sgt. Slaughter was a good soldier, but he was no Colonel DeBeers.

[fjccommish]

@detchuck Slaughter was in and out of the WWF starting in 1980.

SGT. COMBOVER

With his looK GCW/JCP should've made Don kernoodle a Anderson.

The TNA Tag belts like something like these classic NWA Tag belts..

[mightyblack1]

I thought I was the only peeping that out,TNA copied the style of the old NWA World Tag belts.

I met Don Kernodle and his wife way back when before he got hooked up with Slaughter. They were both very kind and spent a long time talking to the fans in Richmond, VA. at the Howard Johnson's hotel.

Boy he went to his Sarge voice pretty quickly after talkin' pretty normal. Seems odd for him to be the Sarge cutting a promo back then and in a suit.

[ItsCodeBaby]

what the hell is with the tapping of the belt by kernodle?! He did it the entire time slaughter was talking!!! Most likely, even when he was out of the shot!!! That's messed up.....but classic wrestling still reigns!!!

[phi1166]

kernoodle was in the wwf as a jobber briefly in '83. i saw a tag match with him and bob bradley vs. tony atlas and rocy johnson from that time on here.

[megamanmaniac]

Somebody had said that he went with Slaughter.

[megamanmaniac]

When was Kernodle in the WWE?

[ajb0215]

About 1988, he feuded with Tito Santana.

Good promo. As for the Funks, Terry pulled a now you see me, now you don't. The Brisco's would turn heel after Slaughter & Kernodle left for WWE. As I said on another post, I saw them take on Steamboat & Youngblood in Newberry, SC. They displayed some heel tendencies in that match. It was the day the of the contract signing for the Greensboro match.
