  • Funny that a year later, Abdullah the Butcher would bloody Wahoo McDaniel up. JCP really took a lot of flack for airing that. In fact, the Richmond, VA stations almost took them off the air.

  • @mkl62 That was awesome. I remember the original footage with a bloody Wahoo being shown on television and the next week they censored it.

  • Oh, I remember seeing this on TV way back when. Of course the real reason it was "taken off the air" was to get folks to come to the house shows and see it live. Nice ploy!

    Always seems to me the Crockett TV shows kinda' lost their flavor when they went from this little studio (like this clip) to the big arenas for tapings.

  • @rajvader I agree, always loved the small studio that they taped the show in.

  • "This is a family sport." I haven't laughed so hard as when I heard that!

  • It was taken off "stopped" because it was boring not the reaction from the fans crockett wanted.

  • My first match i ever seen on t.v other than crappy wwf. 7yrs old watching on black/white t.v. with scrambled reception at 2 am on wed nights. good stuff.

  • The Bret Hart of 1995 versus the Blackjack Mulligan of 1981. Taking all bets.

  • I sese that wrestling .and the fans ..are no better today lol

  • violent my backside...but good to watch anyway

  • I saw this match when it first aired.

  • @litehouse6 Back then, something would happen on TV that would set up the house shows. On the old Georgia Championship Wrestling, how many times did Gene & Ole Anderson beat down 2 scrawny kids and continue to do so after the bell? Then Mr. Wrestling I & II would run into the ring and The Andersons would bale. Ditto for Thunderbolt Patterson & Tony Atlas if they ran out. Then they would announce a tag team match at the local house shows.
