I think you guys are doing the best job you possibly can with the material, spoofing it while still covering the historical elements where needed. Will give it a listen if you want your work picked apart, but honestly this was a blast to listen to from beginning to end and I really enjoyed it.

 

I'd like a Hulkamania era house show or two covered.

Thanks man. These are a blast to do and we want them to be entertaining to listen to.

 

I'm sure we'll do some Hogan era shows, since there are a ton of them with a ton of God awful wrestling. We have a few ideas for future shows that we think will be fun

I am open to doing later cards, but we must be careful. Copywright is the key thing. We can't cover anything too high profile. WWE have made claims against the videos already (notably not for the whole thing, just against title matches and Andre-Studd specifically, which in itself is fascinating), but seem to be willing to let them stay up as long as they retain any profit to be made from ad revenue (ha ha, enjoy your millions Vince!). This is fine with me.

 

However, I am pretty sure if we did something like a Wrestlemania, it would be yanked down almost immediately. We need stick with stuff on the fringes. Like maybe an obscure Boston card, or a Philly show. Maybe an old CHV. Stuff that is not in the typical WWE purview.

This is the PERFECT card for you guys.

 

All jobber vs jobber. The "quality" matches are as follows

 

Demolition vs Spivey and Jerry Allen

 

Koko B Ware vs. Danny Davis (20 minute time limit draw)

 

Harts - Bulldogs (goes only 6 minutes)

 

This is the very definition of a C or maybe even a D show from the time and it was filmed, something very rare for those shows.

Damn, you guys are going at too fast a clip. I just finished the first one this morning. Holy crap was the action bad although I did think Parv was too tough on Mac Rivera. The Baron was also royally screwed in the first contest and Big John Studd rose up my ranks quickly of laziest wrestler of all time.

I kinda liked the last Boston card. To me it needed one more quality match (I'd love to have seen Terry Funk vs Randy Savage in 85 but I wanna keep both guys heels so that's out) to have been a really good card.

 

I've got about 50 or so house shows if you guys need more but I doubt you guys are in need of footage.

 

The October 1990 MSG show is really mediocre for the time and headlined by Dusty-Dibiase which I felt was not quite a big enough feud to headline MSG sadly. Other mediocre MSG shows would include IMO Feb 88, Aug 86, Oct 85 and particularly Sept 84 (though that is Bobby Heenan's WWF debut)

Excellent work, gentlemen.

 

I'm going through the '77 card, and I'm not sure if you mentioned this at some point in the last few bouts, but while the MSG Network fans were seeing Martel/Race from Australia, the live crowd was getting a match that would be right down this show's alley: Dominic DeNucci against the Golden Terror. I don't think much was missed, though: they fought to a double countout.
