This is the wrestling I was brought up on. Damn I miss those days. As a kid I was a Freebird fan all the way, I hated the Von Erichs. But when I got older and realized what pro wrestling is, then I liked both sides. They were all awesome.

Wow, Hayes is the only one of the four still alive.

I grew up watching the great Mid-Atlantic territory then in my teens discovered GCW and World Class. All three were 1000% better than McMahon's WWE garbage.

Watching this reminds me of a time when we bought wrasslin and loved every minute of it, believed in the wrestlers and loved/hated them to our hearts content, now it's just "Sports entertainment" and poorly acted scripted lines with people who know more about backstage politics than real wrestling/promos...

When you talk about great feuds in wrestling history, the Freebirds and the Von Erichs has to be in the top 5

The sportatorium has been torn down and the place is now a beer store

@mrbluto3 Gordy was pretty good on the mic, IMO. Not in the class of Brody or Hayes, but good.  Kerry .. not so much, but he still had charm so he pulled it off most of the time, though sometimes he seemed lost and would give incohernet or babbling interviews.

dam wrestling was so golden back in these days. I lived in the midsouthern area and looked foward to reading about this in magazines.
