85-86. Many of those chickadees were quite fine.
Very cool, piper is a certified rasslin' genius. If someone put out a set of the pre WWF piper stuff, that would be perfect.T200 wrote:The Road Warriors documentary is awesome if you are a Road Warriors fan (they were my all-time at-the-time favorite probably...I had a poster of Animal doing curls on my wall when I was like 11-12...and I beat up a kid in 7th grade 'cause he stepped to me over me saying that Demolition was a rip off of the Warriors).
The Self-Destruction of the Ultimate Warrior is great (and will be heavily influencing my forthcoming Ultimate Warrior Stage Light Show).
The Roddy Piper one is good too. And as an aside I have incoming right now like 14 discs of EVERY Piper's Pit segment ever!
I can link you to wear to get this (the complete set would include all his WWF stuff too and would total 21 discs) if you are interested. I know the guy and he is good quality. Much cheaper than that amount of discs would indicate too...I don;t know the price per disc but would be surprised if it wasn't under $50 total.Turdacious wrote:

ON THIS DAY IN PRO WRESTLING HISTORY
1960 - Verne Gagne was named the first AWA world heavyweight champion on Minneapolis television. The storyline is that the Minneapolis promotion, upset that Verne Gagne, the longtime No. 1 contender, had not received an NWA title shot for years (the NWA was mad at Gagne for touring as U.S. champion unaffiliated with the NWA and cutting down on world title bookings) and gave them a 90 day ultimatum to make a Pat O'Connor vs. Gagne title match. This was all storyline, as the Minneapolis promoters, led by Gagne himself who had purchased controlling interest from Tony Stecher, didn't want to book O'Connor in the first place. So Gagne was announced as the first champion, and dominated the belt for the next 21 years.
