From NWA Mid Atlantic Championship Wrestling 1976 or 1977 (?)- Highlights are shown as Ole and Gene Anderson face off against Ric Flair and Greg Valentine within the confines of a steel cage. The NWA World Tag Team Titles are at stake. This "arena footage" does not include commentary.

@str009 i think they did have them, but they weren't mainstream and they were very expensive. i'm not sure what year they were made. but like the computer who had a few thousand dollars to buy one? same thing with the vcr and they were big. and wide.

You taped it in 1977? Man, who had VCRs in the 1970s? I think I had a 13-inch B&W T.V. with rabbit-ears and considered it high-tech. I don't remember VCRs until the early 1980s. I'm going to Google. :-)

These are the good old days in the NWA when cage matches meant the guys were forced to stay and fight until the score was settled. No escape the cage to win like the pussy wwe rules. The whole point of the cage was to stop outside inteference and the bad guy from leaving and taking a cheap count-out loss. The bad guys would try to climb out and escape but that was just to get over the cowardly heel persona, they never made it. They were forced to stay and fight. To hell with the pussy wwe rules.

@ltrott3 looks to me like its Steamboat that comes in. He was big in 1977 in Mid Atlantic and always feuding with Flair.

I've always wanted to see video of this feud. Flair and Valentine as a tag team is the prototype for HHH/HBK, Outsiders, all the monster heel teams. How bad-ass were they that they turned the hated Andersons into faces?
