TPWW Watches Classic Wrestling Thursdays at 9pm EST (Pre-show at 8:30)

[Bad News Gertner]

Not interested in watching Wrestlemania this weekend but want to get your wrestling fix?

Well it's the first annual GERTNERMANIA!!

THIS SUNDAY AT 8PM EST!!!

Don't ya miss it!

[#1-norm-fan]

I may be busy but if I get free, this will take precedent over a “shell of its former self” WrestleMania.

Gertner doing God’s work here.

[Bad News Gertner]

Here's the bill for GERTNERMANIA

We will kick it off with Cyndi Lauper accepting a Gold Album at MSG, but Roddy Piper has other plans!

Later, Piper visits Cyndi Lauper in Cyndi's studio where she issues a special challenge.

We then go to Jan 1983 WWF t.v where Mr. Saito takes on Tiger Mask. Yes this happened in the WWF

We then go to 1986 where the Dream Team take on the Bulldogs in a non-title match.

Then we have our double Main Event

First we go to Sept 1983 Mid South Wrestling with a jam packed show. I won't spoil the card

We then finish off with a Jan.1985 Mid South show, again a heck of a show

That's this Sunday at 8pm.

[Bad News Gertner]

Tonight! Tonight! Tonight! 8pm!

[Bad News Gertner]

So anything can happen at GERTNERMANIA!

Replacing the Lauper stuff, Tiger Mask vs Saito will be a 1986 Episode of Memphis Wrestling that I had forgotten about and wanted to show ya'll

[#1-norm-fan]

Lauper stuff is a re-run anyway.

[Bad News Gertner]

GERTNERMANIA begins in 15 minutes boys and ghouls!

[Bad News Gertner]

Here we go!

[Bad News Gertner]

Just finished an amazing episode of Memphis Wrestling.

Starting a 1983 Mid South Wrestling episode.

[#1-norm-fan]

Lance Russell was the MVP of GertnerMania I

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

I passed out at the end btu that was dope

[Bad News Gertner]

Haha same here. I turned it off with 20 minutes left. That last pre roll was getting to me.

[Bad News Gertner]

Lance Russell was the MVP of GertnerMania I

Lol my God was he ever amazing.

[#1-norm-fan]

Big show tomorrow night!

Our pre-show will feature a great match from The Philly Spectrum as Tiger Mask faces off against Eddie Gilbert!

On a short but eventful main show, our look back at 1986 World Championship Wrestling features TWO new champions being crowned, a MAJOR heel turn and the in-ring debut of Big Bubba!

And we end the night with the a return to ECW!

Next week will see our 2nd career retrospective episode of the Watch-along. Vote now if you haven’t already!

I AM BACK IN THE MIX THIS WEEK YOU BEAUTIFUL BASTARDS

[#1-norm-fan]

Gonna be busy for a bit and won’t be able to start the show right at 8:30… So enjoy some pre-pre-show festivities!!! Room’s open!

https://sync-tube.de/rooms/35C3lHjrFD

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Another good time last night and I didn't even pass out (though I'm assuming Gertner got TKO'd by one of his doobies).

NWA was fun as usual but ECW Hardcore TV (I think that's what it was) from 94 was immense. Got to watch Chris Benoit kick the shit out of a jobber surfer.

[#1-norm-fan]

Voting is over and it’s official. This Thursday on the watch-along we look back at the career of Nelson Frazier Jr. AKA Mable AKA Viscera AKA Big Daddy V AKA The World’s Largest Love Machine.

This will be… quite the show. In one way or another.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Can’t wait to watch him break Kevin Nash’s back and then follow that up by breaking the Undertaker’s face

[Bad News Gertner]

I loooooooove Viscera!

[#1-norm-fan]

T- 5 1/2 hours.

The straps are coming down.

[Sepholio]

Just bought a new bottle of lube for tonight!

[Bad News Gertner]

Lol so excited for this. Did I mentioned that I love Viscera? Cause I do. Think I'm bullshitting? Lol I sent in Viscera match requests to Fan.

[#1-norm-fan]

Tonight's main event will be a watch-along first! King Mabel battles The Undertaker in a casket match!

[Sepholio]

plz make sure to post this weeks show just in case I dont make it home in time. I dont want to miss this one but I will prob be late getting there tbh

[Sepholio]

I LOVE YOU ALL UwU

[Bad News Gertner]

Greatest. Night. Ever.

[ron the dial]

great work once again

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Didn’t watch the whole thing but I’ll say the matches were actually all...not bad at all. Other than the Harlem Nights stuff from Memphis but that was pre show.

[Bad News Gertner]

You missed this gem

[Bad News Gertner]

Didn’t watch the whole thing but I’ll say the matches were actually all...not bad at all. Other than the Harlem Nights stuff from Memphis but that was pre show.

He always had fun squash matches. You were genuinely concerned that he may accidentally paralyze someone but that's what made them fun.

[Bad News Gertner]

Holy shit, I forgot about this one.

Wy7yw-NU5IQ

[Sepholio]

well at least I have a couple fun matches to watch today while I lay around feeling awful. Part of a group of about 40 people who all got food poisoning from the same place yesterday.

[drave]

damn, lots of ppl in our Denver office sick with food poisoning as well.

[Sepholio]

Bro we ate at a big function that had food catered...if I had known where that food came from before hand I'd have never touched it. All the places in town and they chose this one called Da Corner. Wouldn't even matter if it wasn't poison, they taste alone will make you ill. I'm convinced they only stay open because they must be rich enough to just take an L forever.

[drave]

Used to be a badass food place in the hood called "Big Greasy's".




That place, while risking all the health issues, was soooooooo damn good. Didn't go there much, but their chili cheese fries were the best. They made everything fresh to order.

[Sepholio]

I love hole in the wall places, don't get me wrong.

I just don't like ones that have been shut down for health code violations on at least 3 occasions I know of and have half way burned the place down multiple times as well. Seems like a giant flashing ad that says "Eat here at your own risk" to me.

Well I did, and now I shall pay for it. It was so bad my wife was violently ill within like 20-30 minutes. Turrible, just turrible.

[#1-norm-fan]

I’ll post some Men on a Mission raps in a bit. Men on a Mission raps will make you feel better.

[ron the dial]

everyone needs to see the hot dog seduction of lillian garcia

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

every match of that era guarantees at least one instance of sexual assault. And the crowd going wild for the sexual assault.

[#1-norm-fan]

Next week on the Watch-along…

TPWW goes Hollywood, Magnum goes to the hospital and Nikita goes America…

[#1-norm-fan]

I won’t be able to be online to start the show at 8:30 this Thursday and neither will Gertner.

I can do this thing where I open the room on my laptop, put on a black screen a few hours earlier, just let the show run and time it so it ends and switches to the beginning of the pre-show right at 8:30. SHOULD work out alright.

However, if anyone else wants to try their hand at starting the festivities, let me know. It’s like a 5-10 minute commitment.

[Bad News Gertner]

I can do it at 9pm if everyone is cool with that. Just no pre show.

[Bad News Gertner]

Tonight's show will start at 9pm. I have to work out of the office today so I won't be home till 845ish

[#1-norm-fan]

And it’s a doubleheader!

[Wehttam]

gertner's soul owned by 'the man'

[Bad News Gertner]

I literally just got home from the office. Took longer than planned. Do you guys still want to watch or wait till next week

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Probably better to wait until next week. Everyone I've talked to already seems pretty noncommital.

[Bad News Gertner]

Good cause I'm starving lol

Oh it looks I can’t host from a mobile device cause it freezes every time I change windows

Nevermind

[#1-norm-fan]

Well, damn. Hopefully this doesn’t effect ratings for next weeks SMOTHERS SPECTACULAR!

[#1-norm-fan]

Oh it looks I can’t host from a mobile device cause it freezes every time I change windows

Nevermind

Best solution I found other than using a laptop is to start the show in a private window, close out and then join in a normal window so that you’re no longer hosting.

Ratings plummeted after JBL’s antics. Oh boy.

[#1-norm-fan]

In honor of Gertner, we won’t blame JBL and instead I’ll just assume the post-Magnum episode was just too sad to handle.

[#1-norm-fan]

After a tie in the poll, our next 2 career retrospective episodes are set! Tune in this Thursday as we look back on the career of Andre the Giant! And then at the end of the month, we celebrate Nashvember early!

[#1-norm-fan]

I may be late tonight so just in case I'm not here to start the show at 8:30...

And oh my fucking God you do NOT want to miss the pre-show this week. I've unearthed some gems over the past couple of months.

I've got music videos, commercials and a killer pre show match, followed by your usual top notch NWA action!

[Bad News Gertner]

I can't hype this pre show enough . Don't miss it.

[Sepholio]

Boy we're approaching Tony KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN levels of hype for this show. The only difference is that the TPWW Thursday Night Watch-a-long actually delivers.

[Bad News Gertner]

The biggest pre show I've ever done!

[Bad News Gertner]

Tomorrow! 8:30PM!

The Pre-Show of the CENTURY!

[#1-norm-fan]

Very excited to sit back, relax, have a drink and see what Gertner has in store tonight.

[#1-norm-fan]

Also, we’ve finally reached the Magnum TA accident in our ‘86 watch-along and the immediate fallout is a doozy.

[Bad News Gertner]

Pre show starts in 2 hours! Gonna be great.

Here's the link party peoples!

[Seanny One Ball]

I’m hopefully available for this next week.

I miss the fuck out of it.

Somebody speed me up. Is Pez still Shaska and does he still hang out with Droford?

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

There was no Shaska this week, at least. Can't remember if he's still around. But we all collectively hate Paul Jones and have realized I get triggered when I hear "Bald-headed geek."

[#1-norm-fan]

Also, Magnum just had his accident leading to Nikita turning face out of respect and challenging Flair in his place.

Boogie Woogie Man is still trying to make Paul Jones a bald-headed geek but lost his own hair in the process so now his woman Big Mama is offering up her hair in a hair vs hair match instead.

[#1-norm-fan]

Two 30 minute episodes from the past couple weeks to catch up.

3 days...

https://c.tenor.com/xjeTH1siJCMAAAAM/kevin-nash-hi.gif

This is going to be the most agonizing 3 days of my life. I think we need to have special preview shows every night until then.

:heart:

lololol Nash says Shawn did that on purpose to make him look bad (this, after blowing his ass up in the first part of the match).

[Sepholio]

Bret Hart wishes he could do that to HBK. It's just another day at the office for Big Sexy.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Bret Hart wishes he could do that to HBK.

powerbomb him onto his feet?

[Seanny One Ball]

If you’re doing a Nash night prepare to hear some vitriol.

I prefer Von Raschke

[#1-norm-fan]

Nice. We’ll need that.

[#1-norm-fan]

If it were just about anyone else as the subject of the career retrospective, I would have switched the schedule around and run a regular '86 show this week for Seanny's return but I couldn't do that to Seph.

[Crippla]

Can't think of a better night for my watch along debut then Nash night!

[#1-norm-fan]

Big main event tonight! Not one, not two but THREE '86 watch-along regulars will be featured!

[Crippla]

Now is this all content from 1986?

[Crippla]

Ok yes 1986 WCW nice

[#1-norm-fan]

Now is this all content from 1986?

No. I started this as a weekly watch-along where we watch '86 World Championship Wrestling chronologically. After Scott Hall died, I decided to preempt that week's watch-along to do a career retrospective tribute to Hall instead.

It got a good reaction and our '86 episodes were starting to wind down and also get shorter so I decided to start sprinkling in some career retrospectives instead of just the '86 watch-alongs every week. Now we do a retrospective one week and an '86 watch-along the next.

[#1-norm-fan]

When I say we've got 3 '86 watch-along regulars involved in the main event I just mean three regulars from our '86 watch-along happen to be part of the main event tonight along with Nash.

The match doesn't actually take place in '86. It takes place later...

Some might say later than it should have.

But it is a doozy.

[#1-norm-fan]

We'll also be drawing the next 5 names to be voted on for the next watch-along in the first hour tonight!

Will probably just do an informal vote during the show instead of making a poll thread.

[Crippla]

Well you've drawn me in especially since it's Nash :y:

[#1-norm-fan]

https://sync-tube.de/rooms/Q3u_FJna1

Feel free to tune into the channel now and check out the '86 Crockett Cup as seen last year on the watch-along featuring possibly the greatest match in TPWW Watch-along history between The Kiwi Sheepherders and The Fantastics!

We'll see you for the main show in 4 hours!

[Seanny One Ball]

I’ll be online you fucks

[#1-norm-fan]

https://sync-tube.de/rooms/Q3u_FJna1

2 minutes!!!

[Crippla]

And I'm still up! Let's do it

[#1-norm-fan]

Well that was a show!

[Sepholio]

I missed the end because of shitty american infrastructure. AGAIN. UHG

While I did condone drugs and alcohol being consumed during last night’s show, I did NOT condone Cripplapalooza.

[Crippla]

And I did not give my blessing to the anonymous Cripplas! I'm ok with Seanny and Seph fucking around with the name but the other anti Cripplas who were too much of cowards to reveal their identity need to pay me for the use of the trademarked Crippla!

[Crippla]

Well done though, the main event with Ricky "Crackhead" Morton took me by surprise! I did watch the rest of it this morning

[#1-norm-fan]

Great train wreck. Felt like it would have been right down Gertner’s alley.

[Crippla]

Lol pretty sure it was Gertner

[#1-norm-fan]

Lol I meant the Nash-Morton train wreck.

Gertner wasn’t there last night.

[Crippla]

Oh lmao yeah it was a train wreck all around and I thought Gertner was one of the Cripplas...idk

[Crippla]

Anyway, can't wait for Nash's new podcast with Waltman

[Bad News Gertner]

Great train wreck. Felt like it would have been right down Gertner’s alley.

Hahaha oh I've seen it before and yes it's right up my alley

[Crippla]

I love the intro/ interview when Nash calls him a crackhead as well lol it was one big shit show to me

[#1-norm-fan]

I should have included the promo where Ricky told Nash to bring Hunter, Scott and “X-Box”.

[Seanny One Ball]

X Box… damn that’s a great burn

[Seanny One Ball]

Even if he didn’t mean it that’s great

[Crippla]

So...who won the vote for next week? I hope it was Hennig, that would be a perfect follow up

[Crippla]

The perfect pun was unintentional but I stand by it

[Sepholio]

My vote is for Hennig

[Sepholio]

We all know its gonna be the shitman though

[Crippla]

Idk I don't recall anyone else voting except Dale who also said Hennig

[#1-norm-fan]

Next week is ‘86 World Championship Wrestling. The week after though…

Curt Hennig
Triple H
Ivan Koloff
Ron Garvin
Bret Hart

I’ll let the vote take place here. I’ll update the count in this post as votes are placed.

Seph votes Hennig
#1-norm-fan votes Hennig
Crippla votes Hennig
Gertner votes Hennig
ron the dial votes Hennig

[Crippla]

Did not see Bret as an option but I still vote Hennig... I'm sure Dale's will change

[#1-norm-fan]

Fuck it. Not even waiting. I’m voting Hennig too.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Next week is ‘86 World Championship Wrestling. The week after though…

Curt Hennig

Everyone voting in this poll please know I have banning power.

Make the correct choice.

[Crippla]

So 3 for Hennig thus far

[#1-norm-fan]

Supreme gonna wait to make his vote JUST IN CASE all the Garvin fanatics flow in and he’s gotta break a tie.

[Bad News Gertner]

Dale facebook messaged me his choice of Ronnie Garvin

[Bad News Gertner]

I chose Hennig

[ron the dial]

what am i, an idiot? garvin.

errrrrr sorry i meant hennig. yeah hennig.

[Bad News Gertner]

Remember how people back in the day always used to spell his last name "Henning."

A much simpler time.

[Crippla]

I always thought it was Henning when I was a kid...I really don't even think I noticed that it was actually Hennig until the interwebs came along

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

I’d only vote for Garvin if it was Jimmy-jam

[#1-norm-fan]

This week on the watch-along…

- We’ll see the watch-along debut of RICKY Gibson as he teams with Tim Horner to face the legendary Mulkeys!

- Jim Cornette and The Midnight Express train for their upcoming Scaffold match against The Road Warriors! (No pumpkins were harmed in the filming of this vignette.)

Plus, “Ravishing” Rick Rude, The Kansas Jayhawks, America-loving Nikita Koloff and MUCH more!

And tune in for the pre-show for a sneak peak at next week’s career retrospective episode!

(Post-show TBA)

[Crippla]

So no Hennig?

[Bad News Gertner]

We don't do career retrospectives every week.

[#1-norm-fan]

No. I started this as a weekly watch-along where we watch '86 World Championship Wrestling chronologically. After Scott Hall died, I decided to preempt that week's watch-along to do a career retrospective tribute to Hall instead.

It got a good reaction and our '86 episodes were starting to wind down and also get shorter so I decided to start sprinkling in some career retrospectives instead of just the '86 watch-alongs every week. Now we do a retrospective one week and an '86 watch-along the next.

[#1-norm-fan]

Hennig next week barring an insane rush of Ivan Koloff votes.

[Crippla]

Oh ok I misread that it's for the week after... either way I'll probably still be there

[Crippla]

I like the idea of mixing it up from week to week... keep things FRESH

[#1-norm-fan]

After we finish ‘86, I think I’m gonna add weekly ‘87 WWF TV to the rotation.

[#1-norm-fan]

Possibly leading to an ‘87 “Who War it Better” podcast discussion. Hmm…

[Crippla]

Yes I love it go year to year, add some new thingd, lot of good ideas! We can probably keep this watch along gig going forever...

[Crippla]

There's just so much out there. This has to be one of the best wrestling forum ideas ever

[Bad News Gertner]

We gotta do something with 84/85 Mid South. Their weekly t.v is incredible

[Bad News Gertner]

Gonna be in Toronto on Thursday and won't be able to make it

[#1-norm-fan]

A classic but VERY timely ECW episode for the post show tonight!

[#1-norm-fan]

And as the guy who runs this thing, I’d like to request that if anyone wishes to be “crippla” in the chat tonight, please do so only by fitting “crippla” seamlessly into your own name.

That includes you, actual Crippla.

I swear Andre the Giant must be 7 foot 9

I swear Andre the Giant must be 7 foot 9

:heart::heart::heart:

[Crippla]

I brush my teeth with a sand blaster and shave with barbed wire

[Crippla]

I wish I got to watch the whole thing last night

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

You made it longer than me. Nodded off like a mahfuck about a quarter way through ECW Fn W.

[Crippla]

No you were still there when I left... I didn't even make it to ECW

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

oh yeah shit. I remember now. Marijuana is a hell of a drug.

[#1-norm-fan]

Happened to pick the Pillman promo episode because of the buzz around it from MJF. Then I found out Melanie Pillman died during the show. Weird.

[ron the dial]

it was the wonder twins seph and ron who made it all the way to completion

[#1-norm-fan]

But it was me who enabled the drugs that allowed it to happen.

[ron the dial]

soon enough you'll have us on the streets turning tricks for liquid diamond infused blunts

[#1-norm-fan]

I need to get some Goldschlager one of these weeks. A truly classy affair of debauchery it will be.

[Supreme Olajuwon]

Since the Heroes of Wrestling show was such a big hit, I thought I’d point out that the original Hardcore Homecoming from 2005 is also uploaded in full on YouTube (and in surprisingly good quality). Just some food for thought.

[#1-norm-fan]

Is it spectacularly good enough or spectacularly bad enough to warrant its own night?

I feel like I’ve seen at least most of it and didn’t feel like it was but I’ll leave it up to the people.

[Bad News Gertner]

Those WWA shows from Australia are up on YouTube and they are something else

[Bad News Gertner]

After we finish ‘86, I think I’m gonna add weekly ‘87 WWF TV to the rotation.

85 WWF weekly t.v is another good option. The run up to WM1, debuts of Savage and Terry Funk. Piper vs Orndorff feud, Valentine vs Tito

[#1-norm-fan]

Still got a month or two to finish up ‘86 Crockett but depending on what is readily available to watch in a nice, neat chronological form, I’m still weighing options.

Even if I can get something outside of YouTube, I’m willing to look into uploading it myself if it’s not too time consuming.

[#1-norm-fan]

Why wait? Tune in now for bonus coverage of our pre-show match already in progress!

CURT HENNIG NIGHT HAS BEGUN!

[Bad News Gertner]

My gf has to work during the day tomorrow and I might just throw on a WWF House Show from 84-85. I got one in mind that I've been meaning to watch and add to my collection. If people want to join I'll throw up a link.

[#1-norm-fan]

Put the link up when you start and post it here and in casual. I’ll be down to pop in at least for a bit.

[Bad News Gertner]

Funk vs Hogan main event. Savage and Ventura vs Santana and Atlas semi main. Both very interesting matches that I'm looking forward to seeing.

[Bad News Gertner]

And no fucking Rene Goulet

[#1-norm-fan]

That’s an odd tag match.

Much like Rude and Perfect vs. Von Erich and Ultimate Warrior would have been an odd tag match for many to see LIVE last night!

[Crippla]

Fuck I'm so pissed I missed Hennig...had a lot going on the past couple days though which is why I haven't been on. Anyway, did we vote on the next career retrospect?

[#1-norm-fan]

Not yet. We’ll definitely have to do another Hennig one at some point though. Best career retrospective yet and a lot of people missed it.

Might spin the wheel for the next vote tonight.

[#1-norm-fan]

Stan Hansen
Honky Tonk Man
The Steiner Brothers
“Bullet” Bob Armstrong
New Jack

Let the voting begin!

[Bad News Gertner]

Steiners

[Crippla]

Put me down for the Steiners as well...I think I mentioned something about them a few weeks ago

[#1-norm-fan]

The subject of a Steiners watch-along came up a couple weeks ago, maybe after Gertner posted a gif in 100,000 replies. Favorite tag team of all time. All five solid choices in completely different ways but I gotta go Steiners.

[Sepholio]

Steiners for me too. Apologies for missing last week. I was drunk and high on a mountain somewhere.

[Bad News Gertner]

I could watch a couple hours of strictly Steiners squash matches

[Crippla]

Looks like a Steiner sweep

[Bad News Gertner]

More of this!

[#1-norm-fan]

Oh there will be a heaping helping of jobbers being tossed around like crash test dummies if we do Steiners.

[Crippla]

Lol I love how Rick thinks it's hilarious

[#1-norm-fan]

At least between laughs you can see him asking the guy if he knows what planet he’s on.

[#1-norm-fan]

To which I assume the guy answered “Thursday”.

[Crippla]

Speaking of which you can watch the Steiners knock more jobbers silly on planet "Thursday" during next week's watch along! BE THERE!!! (How'd I do, Fan?)

[Bad News Gertner]

Hmmmm gotta think of something good for the pre show this week.


Or something really really bad!

[Crippla]

Stay tuned and find out Thursday as this week's watch along is hosted by YOUR very own King of the Forum, GERTNER! You do not wanna miss it!!!

[Crippla]

Lol I'm such a nerd but seriously I should be there this week. I was really disappointed to miss Curt Hennig...

[#1-norm-fan]

Sent you a PM :naughty:

I just named a random day of the week. You made a shameless promotion link I wasn’t even thinking of. Nice.

[#1-norm-fan]

You weren’t alone. I think it was the most poorly attended watch-along yet somehow.

[Crippla]

Just bad timing for everyone by coincidence probably.

[Crippla]

I just named a random day of the week. You made a shameless promotion link I wasn’t even thinking of. Nice.

I saw the opportunity and picked up the ball and ran with it! I would make a great obnoxiously redundant and extremely annoying hype man for the shows

[Bad News Gertner]

OK I know what I'm doing for the pre show.

It's fucking fantastic and something I've been wanting to show

Will it be commercials
Will it be a match
Or will it be a talk show


Hmmmm.

[Bad News Gertner]

Crippla stealing my "Be There" that I stole from Freddie Miller.

-djsOjfi2vo

[Bad News Gertner]

Tonight's pre show will feature the Morten Downey Jr Show featuring wrestlers like Dr.D David Schultz, Captain Lou Albano etc..... It's a giant entertaining shit show.

830pm est. Don't cha miss it!

[Crippla]

...Be there!

[Sepholio]

Hate to do this -_-

Seph will make his grand return to the IMPACT ZONE next week after bullshit postpones his downtime for tonight. What will Seph have to say about bullshit harshing his buzz yet again? Stay tuned to find out!!

[Bad News Gertner]

Here's the room. Starts in 5!

[drave]

Rick is the better brother. Always liked him more.

[Crippla]

Scott is personally my favorite but I'm a fan of both of them especially together

[Bad News Gertner]

This came up last week: when did blading become a topic in media and I brought this up

[#1-norm-fan]

So… I’ve been away for the week and have not had time to put together a Steiners show. It will have to wait for next week.

BUT tonight’s show will be a packed one as we wind down the year 1986 in Jim Crockett Promotions and head up north on the pre-show for a WWF Title match between Bob Backlund and Adrian Adonis!
