  • Another great video. Lanza was a very under-appreciated part of the AWA. As I watched this video, I wondered if Lanza ever held any AWA title (tag team, probably). I'm not sure, but I don't think so. One of the all-time greatest matches I ever saw live was Blackjack Lanza vs. Bobby Heenan in a Texas Bunkhouse (or maybe Bullrope) match in St. Paul - it floored most people who were there that day. I'm hoping this match is shown someday and available.

    Again, thank you so much.

  • Blackjack Lanza held the AWA tag team title with Bobby Duncum Sr. from July 23, 1976 to July 7, 1977

  • Great match! Thanks for posting!

  • Great footage, loved watching this one

  • this was real wrestling. the wrestlers of then could beat the wrestlers of now. they had discipline. cstanchik

  • Would have loved to seen the Blackjacks take on Ole&Gene Anderson that would be a classic!

  • I agree. Why is a Japanese announcer broadcaster calling an AWA match? I've been watching a lot of AWA matches on here lately and I can understand why the company went out of business. It had been coming for quite sometime.

  • A entertaining match. The re-formed Blackjacks storyline was one of the best, but very shortlived & almost forgotten, great angles of the AWA during this era.

  • Dam! Letting almost all their top talent

    WRESTLERS go to the wwe and having

    Japan broadcasting of of AWA,,it's no

    wonder Verne lost AWA WRESTLING.

  • Never knew Lanza had a "face" run.

  • one of the greatest feuds, but lost in wraslin history, The Blackjacks, Lanza, Mulligan with Heenan as there manager VS. The Crusher and Dick the Bruiser.
