Booking Lawler in NC. Wierd thing

[cawthon777 0]

Agreed.

 

I believe a fan cam of that show is floating around somewhere.

[Team Angle Pusher 0]

The Rock beat Triple H two years in a row, did that feud last THAT long

[nl5xsk1 0]

The Golden Terror faces two world champions, but 13 years apart. Any idea if it's the same guy, or just two masked guys with the same name?

 

Crusher Blackwell: is that the same Jerry "Crusher" Blackwell that appeared in the AWA?

 

And both Dick Slater & Blackjack Mulligan as faces in the WWF? I knew the former was there as the Rebel, and the latter was one of the Machines, but I had no idea the former was ever a face and the latter was there without the mask ... let alone as a face.

[MillenniumMan831 0]

Mulligan didn't last too long. He did have 2 SNME appearances though. In January of 87 he won "The Battle for Texas" over JJ Funk and in March he was quickly dumped out of a 20-Man battle royal.

Mulligan didn't last too long. He did have 2 SNME appearances though. In January of 87 he won "The Battle for Texas" over JJ Funk and in March he was quickly dumped out of a 20-Man battle royal.

 

Mulligan dominated a number of house show bunkhouse battle royals in late 86 / early 87, most notably by eliminating King Kong Bundy during a Boston Garden show.

 

He also had a babyface run throughout 84 and 85, just not very high profile.

Vader & Steve Austin defeated Bret Hart & Shawn Michaels when Austin pinned Bret with a roll up after Vader threw Michaels into Bret; Hart and Michaels brawled after the match

 

 

sounds like a dream match from back then!

1996 WWF is very underrated. I think I like 1996 and 1997 WWF better than '98-'99.

 

I was at the Milwaukee matinee show on 12-26-97. First wrestling show I ever got to attend. It was a fun time. That was when Rock was starting to really get into his heel schtick.
