Keeping up with the old school theme. Terry Funk is a man with the career that could span an entire book. Starting at the young(for the time) age of twenty one, Funk debuted in 1965, and two short years later, he and brother Dory Funk Jr. would capture the NWA Amarillo Tag Team Titles, trading them back and forth with the Infernos. They would soon moves on to NWA Western States, and quickly captured the tag team titles there as well. 1970 would bring singles success to Terry, as he won the NWA Western States Title, holding it for two short months. Terry then traveled to Florida as The Texan, and quickly won the NWA Florida Television Title. Dory soon followed, and the duo soon defeated the Brisco Brothers to win the NWA Florida Tag Team Titles. From there, Terry wrestled all over the world, including Japan, where he and Dory continued their tag team dominance, winning the NWA International Tag Team Titles from Giant Baba and Antonio Inoki. The duo would wrestle extensively in Japan from then on, winning the World's Strongest Tag League twice, in 1979. Terry would travel to the NWA, quickly winning the United States Title. In December of 1975, Terry's greatest success would take place, as he defeated Jack Brisco for the NWA World Heavyweight Title. After holding the belt for a year, and defending it against the likes of Jumbo Tsuruta, he would be defeated by Harley Race. He and Dory Jr. would team up once again, and wreak havoc on the wrestling world across the globe, winning various tag team titles in several territories. In 1981, Terry faced his brother in Japan for the NWA International Title, though after forty five minutes of technical wrestling, Dory would defeat his brother. In 1983, the duo continued their feud with Bruiser Brody that started in 1981. 1983 would also be a significant year, as Terry would announce his retirement, with his final match being with his brother against Terry Gordy and Steve Williams. As you probably know, that didn't last long, as in 1985, he came out of retirement to face off against Riki Choshu in tag team warfare. Soon after, Terry and Dory were signed to the WWF, and competed there ever so briefly before returning to Japan once again. In 1988, Terry would find himself in a feud with the NWA World Heavyweight Champion, Ric Flair. This feud culminated in a brutal I Quit Match, which is still heralded as a classic twenty years later. Funk would disappear for a while, and resurface in the fledgling ECW promotion, winning the Television Title from Jimmy Snuka. It would be here that Funk would encounter perhaps his greatest rival: Cactus Jack. The two would toss one another through table, burn one another with Funk's own branding iron, and bury one another underneath chairs. The two would up the scales, when they would meet in the finals of the 1995 King of the Deathmatch in a No Rope, Barbed Wire, C4 Explosion Boards(legit), Timebomb Deathmatch. The two would damn near kill each other before Cactus would win. Funk would then wage war on the FMW promotion, proclaiming himself to lead what he called the real FMW(Funk Masters of Wrestling). He would take out Hayabusa, Mr. Pogo, and Pogo, Jr. before Atsushi Onita defeated his team, and Funk soon went back to ECW. Here, he won the ECW World Heavyweight Title at Barely Legal, and eventually lost it to Sabu in a brutal No Rope Barbed Wire Match. From then on, Funk bounced around various Indy feds, as well as WWF and WCW. He would retire multiple times up until 2008, and as of this posting, it would appear he's coming out once again to compete at the upcoming Wrestle Kingdom IV event. Terry brought an interesting style to the ring, combining technical expertise with stiff brawling and hardcore insanity. As with the rest of the family, he used the Spinning Toe Hold extensively, though also favoring the Piledriver a bit more as a finishing move.

Turning back the clocks once again for a few legendary top tens to close out the Holiday season. Next week will likely bring the yearly lists back to recap 2009.
Jack Brisco is the older brother of the oddly more recognized Gerald Brisco. Debuting in 1965, Jack wasted no time in finding success, winning the NWA Missouri Jr. Heavyweight Title twice before the year's end. Two years later, he would set his sights on the Florida scene, and quickly won the NWA Tri State United States Tag Team Titles alongside Gorgeous George Jr. He also found more singles success, holding the NWA Florida Southern Heavyweight Title multiple times. In 1970, Jack would also hold the NWA Florida Heavyweight Title. At the 1970s came about, Jack's younger brother joined him in the ring, and the two began a quest for tag team domination. Only one team truly stood in their path: The Funk Brothers, Dory Jr. and Terry. The two won their first title, the NWA Florida Tag Team Titles, in 1971, the first of twenty plus tag team titles the brothers would hold in their careers. In 1973, however, Jack would acheive his greatest accomplisment, when he defeated the legendary Harley Race for the NWA World Heavyweight Title. In January of 1974, Jack would defend the title against Dory Funk Jr. in Japan for Giant Baba's All Japan Pro Wrestling. The match won numerous Match of the Year honors worldwide, and only served to intensify the feud between the teams of brothers. After a year on top, Jack would be dethroned by Giant Baba in Japan. However, Jack would defeat Baba for the title soon after, and enjoy another lengthy reign. Jack was only the second person to have held the NWA World Heavyweight Title twice, and have both reigns last greater than a year. After losing the belt a second time, Jack rebounded by defeating a young Jerry Lawler for the NWA Mid American Southern Heavyweight Title in 1976. He began focusing on teaming with brother Jerry once again, and the two once again set out for tag team gold, and won the NWA Florida United States Tag Team Titles three more times, defeating teams such as Steve Keirn and Mike Graham, Bobby Doncum Jr. and Killer Karl Kox, and Mr. Saito and Mr. Sato. In 1979, they gained an edge, and defeated the Funks for the NWA Georgia Tag Team Titles. The Briscos then had a stranglehold on the tag team scenes in Georgia and Florida, winning the various tag team titles in both states. The two would also travel to the Caribbean to compete for the WWC, defeating the Sheephearders for the WWC North American Tag Team Titles. Jack won also win the NWA Mid Atlantic Heavyweight Title, defeating Roddy Piper for the belt on two occasions in the early 1980s. Gerry would soon join in the gold, as the brothers would win the NWA Mid Atlantic World Tag Team Titles, defeating Jay Youngblood and Ricky Steamboat on two occasions, and Youngblood and Wahoo McDaniel to make it a threepeat in 1983. Around this time, Jack would officially retire from in-ring competition, topping off almost twenty years of in-ring success worldwide. Jack Brisco was one of the smoothest technical wrestlers in the world during his prime, possessing one of the best Dropkicks you'll ever see, and was one who knew how to scoot the rule books if needed. However, when all was said and done, Brisco had the tools to beat just about anyone in the world without needing to break the rules. It was legs that he chose to break, as he preferred to finish his opponents off with the Figure Four Leglock, executing the move in a very unique fashion. He was one of the first to incorporate the move as a finishing hold since the legendary Buddy Rogers.

A bit of a random clip to get us to tomorrow, and three spectacular vids to close out the chase to #400, and the Holidays.
From the spectacular September 1994 Triple Crown Title bout, and "Dr. Death" Steve Williams' first defense after ending Mitsuharu Misawa's legendary(and still record) reign as the Triple Crown Champion. Williams hauls Kobashi off the canvas, and plants him with an absolutely perfect Dr. Bomb.

Probably one of the biggest revamps in a long time. Taiji Ishimori is a familiar face to those who follow Pro Wrestling NOAH fairly closely. Taiji's career started in Toryumon X in 2002, and despite being one of the most agile wrestlers of his time, demonstrated by his Superstar Elbow, his BxB Hulk-like gimmick failed to take off, and Taiji began to flounder. A short run as the top face in the short lived Dragondoor promotion also failed to rocket Ishimori to stardom. After both feds closed, Ishimori found his way to Pro Wrestling NOAH, and freelanced quite a bit. Here's when things began to look up. Despite not being at the top of the heap, Ishimori started getting noticed, even getting a shot at the GHC Jr. Heavyweight Title in 2006, falling to KENTA. 2007 was a much better year, as Ishimori began to hone his skills, and become and even more complete wrestler. He teamed with KENTA, and together, the two won the NTV Cup, defeating Naomichi Marufuji and Kota Ibushi in a spectacular final. 2008 started off great for Ishimori, as he and KENTA traveled to Dragon Gate, and brought the GHC Jr. Heavyweight Tag Team Titles back to NOAH, defeating BxB Hulk and Shingo. The two would eventually lose the belts, but also won the 2008 NTV Cup. 2009 has been a bit of a rocky year for Ishimori, failing to regain the titles, as well as losing some big singles matches such as his incredible match with Kota Ibushi. However, it's only a matter of time until Ishimori has more gold around his waist. His style has undergone a bit of an overhaul, now combining some strength with his awesome aerial tactics. The 450 Splash has gotten Ishimori some big wins in the past few months, and the Telerana is certainly capable of putting Ishimori's opposition away.
