I wish Eddie was alive today to see those two guys make so much impact on wrestling. Throw in Rick Steiner you got 3 of the most impressive stars of the 90s EXCELLENT share WarriorCentral
Yeah I know he admitted it, I was just pointing out that that must've been the time when he was on them. Didn't know it was legal though, I thought they outlawd them in the late 70s.
Little known fact: In the 1980s there was a federal law that all wrestling promotions had to have an evil Russian character who came to the ring with a Soviet flag...
@NRAWKER The other announcer is Freebird Michael "P.S." Hayes. When the Freedbirds weren't in the ring, Hayes was Ross' regular broadcast partner in the UWF at that time.
The things you could get away with as a promotion that was not nationally televised in the 80's is a long list. As long as the look did not coincide with the name you could call yourself anything you pleased and use anybodies music.
The Freebirds are a great example. Before BadStreet they used Skynnard t-shirts and music. Nobody blinked an eye or got litigation happy
Wow, this was after Eddie Gilbert, Korchenko, Ivan Koloff and Nikita Koloff laid out Cowboy Bill Watts and put the Soviet Flag on him. This was a great storyline.
@rstryker27 Crazy stuff indeed... she's smoking for one, kids in diapers sitting in the front row.... don't see that kind of thing these days for sure.
Yep , that's crazy , but I was actually talking about how she doesn't appear to be wearing any pants. I'm sure that she really is but it's weird looking.
The guy that played Korchenko was able to keep his identity well secreted. Probably because he was so forgettable after he left your sight that no one bothered to research.
Oh yeah the original can't think of his name is the strength coach at the University of Memphis. Sid Vicious was the most known. You still have a couple indies in the south that put the Hockey mask on a big man to use the gimmick
No, they never became the next Road Warriors, but by early 1990 they were each the World Champion of the 2 major promotions. That was just 4 years after this match. It is amazing to think about.
Hard to believe that the young Bladerunners became Sting and Ultimate Warrior. Too bad they didn't face the LOD Road Warriors, that would've been fun.
I can't believe no one noticed this. Warrior and Sting both got signature moves and as a combo! Gorilla Slam from Rock right into a semi-Stinger splash.
oh,i'm sorry i didn't mean to disrespect the fearsome darsowgolf. cuz at any moment of his choosing he could take the dog's dick out his ass and shut me up permanently. i'd better watch out!! fucking faggot ass troglodite
It's the bridge from a Styx song called "Castle Walls". It was on the "Grand Illusion" album. That particular keyboard part is about 2/3 of the way through the song.
perry jackson yes i remember he was a brother of michael tito janet latoya and jewmaine but nas rejected by his father joseph because of his weight so he went to work for redneck promoter bill watts i was a hge perry jackson fan i` believe he was better than pedro mrales and could have been a great governor like arnold and jessie god bless you mt brother thank you for being such a pro..............................
