I remember this. I love the way Idol just suddenly appears behind the curtain. Memphis wrestling NONE BETTER!

Anvil reminds me a little bit of Mad Dog Buzz Sawyer in this promo. Very clearly, his mic work and personality carried the Hart Foundation until Bret was able to get his bearings in the Federation.

[lambert581]

Is Idol still involved in wrestling in any way? I mean like promoting stuff

[GShea]

No - he is in real estate in Pensacola.

[DocFarnoff]

Anvil is the heel but Idol is the only back jumping coward! The humanoids are supporting a cheater again. Awesome stuff as always GShea!

[lambert581]

The one wrestler who came out was Rick Rude

[GShea]

And Phil Hickerson and The Spoiler (Frank Morrell).

Idol looks in great shape in that clip. I liked his interview as well, no shouting or rambling. Reminds me a bit of Flair's face promos in the early 80's.
