This is classic stuff! I had the opportunity to meet Paul Roddy and Ace at Franks Collectibles in City of Industry this week. They were all great guys. Roddy is a class act to wrestling fans.
Holy crap! this match was brutal! Nobody was as vicious as piper and orndorff ever! Its still hard to watch sometimes,because piper is the real deal,its not an act he did this stuff to everyone!
Gordon Solie was and always will be the Dean Of Commentating,there is no one and I mean no one that made Pro Wrestling more real by his voice alone than Gordon Solie.To bad Eddie Graham commited suicide as the FCW could have continued for more years under his umbrella.,with Gordon doing the announcing.How many of you remember seeing Florida Championship Wrestling on UHF stations at like Midnight on Wed Nights.
It was so weird as when this Black Saturday occured World Class Wrestling was on CBN at the time and most people just flipped over to that so McMahon helped WCCW build their following.Remember Mcmahon the brain is the one who did not think to copyright his WWF Name and lost it to the World Wildlife Federation after all those years,what an ass he is.
@lambert581 The two promoters were the brother duo of Jack and jerry brisco who sold out and will forever be known as the turn coats of the NWA.They bought there way into the WWF hall Of fame.
This was a horror for true wrestling fans when McMahon took over Saturday night but it did not last long when the wrestling fans spoke up and demanded WCW be brought back on the air and it indeed did return,and to thunderous applause some weeks later.Up yours Vince you dont think competition is bad now do you,that your poromotion is in the dumper in ratings.
With all due respect. Gordon Solie was great, but Jesse Ventura was the greatest broadcaster in the history of Pro Wrestling.

Roddy Piper always seemed like punk to me. I never.......never will understand what his appeal was.
He just talked a bunch of crap.. His body looked like crap. Little athleticism. Poor mechanics in the ring. Goofy haircut.
Just an overall putz...

It is weird to see the WWF(E) in the TBS studio. However Piper and orndorf were no strangers to the Fans in Georgia.
