Flair's podcast (WOOOOONation)
I enjoyed the show with Terry Funk. We should be grateful that these are being made considering the rate at which wrestlers from this generation are dying.

Fuck dude, there's about 20 of them. I think I worked out before that Victor Riveria was the biggest actual star of them.

One thing I've come to appreciate over the past couple of years is how Vince Sr was able to run his promotion, and "super territory", for so long with such shitty rosters. I think he probably made more extensive use of jobbers than any other promotion, and had his workforce above that of aging and mostly no-longer-any-good JTTS guys (Baron, Denucci, etc.) with Johnny Rodz, Jose Estrada and the Riverias as sort of the "workrate" crew. If you think about it, his roster was pretty threadbare beyond the top handful of names at any given time (champ, ic champ, top heel, Garea's partner, heel tag team). I still think it is remarkable that he was able to sell out MSG and the Spectrum so many times running the shows he did. Master promoter.

Dave Meltzer stuff
I still maintain that "feminist troll" would be one of the all-time heat generating heel gimmicks if anyone ever wanted to do it.

One thing I'll say about Bulldog Brower is that Greg Oliver puts him over huge in his book The Heels, and he appears on the front cover of that. He was all about the facial expressions from what I've seen. Steamboat and Youngblood got an enjoyable match out of him and Tor Kamata in early 1980 (*I think*), but Brower I think was never a great worker in terms of work, 100% character work guy.

It made sense as a pick for me given his history and the fact I can tag him with Superstar Graham one of his many "brothers".

Sure, we'll take him. Excellent potential as an energetic young babyface. He may be tagged on occassion with SD Jones.

I worked out the dates on the funks ages ago, Terry's dates area the same as Dory's for the August AJ tour.
