插曲 28 – 黃金時段摔跤
在這一集, 我的表弟丹和我回顧了四月 28, 1986 世界自然基金會黃金時段摔角版.
Update
Starting with the first episode in August, 我的兒子 Caleb 和我的表弟 Dan 應該加入我的工作室. 我們將恢復正常的更新格式, main content based on pro wrestling history research, and a review.
Main Content
聖. Louis finally approved a cable provider in 1986. We finally had access to the national wrestling shows including WWF’s Prime Time Wrestling. Neither my cousin Dan nor I were fans of WWF until we started watching this show. 在這一集, we review the first episode available on Peacock, 四月 28, 1986. We started watching the show about this time.
It Was Almost Real 的播客藝術: 職業摔跤歷史播客
Nikolai Volkoff vs. Tony Garea
When I first saw this match, I probably rolled my eyes. Now I think it was a good match. Dan and I rarely saw Volkoff win a singles match at this point.
Jake “the Snake” Roberts vs. Scott McGhee
We forgot to review this match. Roberts beats McGhee easily to further build his image. The snake did not scare McGhee as much as it did other wrestlers.
King Tonga vs. Paul Christy
Paul Christy moved well for a 47-year-old. Christy helped get a young King Tonga over in this match.
Renee Goulet vs. “Leaping” Lanny Poffo
As much as I liked his brother Randy Savage, I never got Lanny Poffo. I found it to be a terrible match that went over two segments.
Classic Match with Professor Toru Tanaka and Mr. Fuji – Dominating win by Professor Tanaka and Mr. Fuji.
Sivi Afi vs. “Iron” Mike Sharpe
I would not have watched this match in 1986 but I thought both wrestlers looked good in the match. The wrestlers and referee botched the end as the count out was telegraphed before it happened.
Iron Sheik vs. Corporal Kirchner
Corporal Kirchner never successfully replaced Sgt. Slaughter after Sgt. Slaughter left the WWF. Iron Sheik was in his mid-40s but looked great. The match was much better than it should have been.
下一集
We will release the next episode on Monday, 八月 14, 2023. In that episode, we will discuss Jack Pfeffer exposing the worked nature of professional wrestling in a December 1933 article for the New York Daily Mirror.
