Have had this idea for awhile and now here it is

I will post a new topic for this everyday which will feature various results from different promotions over the years that took place on this date

We will discuss them and maybe pick one we might like to have attended if we had a time machine

This one looks fairly decent as Flair and Steamboat always had great matches and Slaughter and Brisco was probably great too

Ole/Stan versus Ray and Tommy sounds good as well

2/14/82 Asheville, NC
NWA World Champion Ric Flair double countout with Ricky Steamboat
Sgt. Slaughter beat Jack Brisco
Ole Anderson & Stan Hansen beat Ray Stevens & Tommy Rich
Austin Idol beat Jerry Brisco
Keith Larson beat Jeff Sword
Vinnie Valentino beat Bill White

That main event must've been great
Muraco vs Orton Jr sounds great too

2/14/75 Atlanta, GA @ Municipal Auditorium
Abdullah the Butcher beat Rocky Johnson
Toru Tanaka beat Ken Patera
Jerry Brisco beat Ronnie Garvin in 10:00
Don Muraco beat Bob Orton Jr
Jerry Lawler beat Steve Keirn
Jimmy Golden beat Joe Tomayo in 8:00
