20 Years Ago - WON 12/05/88
The Captial Combat 90 the Return of Robocop, did anyone realize that the tag line they used was stupid, because Robocop never appeared in the NWA before Capital Combat, so they acted as if this was Robocop's 2nd appearance in the NWA, hence why they called it that. I wonder if they were going to give the POP the tag titles, but since the Road Warriors turned face and lost the titles at the Clash, they kept the POP heels and had Demolition retain.

20 Years Ago - WON 01/18/88
I'm guessing Big Bubba Rogers never started in Hershey on 1/26. Did Meltzer ever get full results from the WWF TV tapings or just certain aspects of it? I know the TV tapings he attended, he gave full results. I'm surprised the NWA didn't run a special on 2/5/88 against the Main Event. What matches would you have go against the 3 WWF matches?

20 Years Ago - WON 08/01/88
What TV taping did this happen at? The only one I know is the 1/27/88 Challenge taping where they did a TV angle. Did they have another angle at a Summer TV taping?

PTB Episode 268: WrestleMania X-7
Wrestlemania 17 was 4 hours 8 p.m. to midnight. They would always have it from 8 to midnight up until WM 19. WM 20 was 7 to 11. The next few Manias would have great themes, that everytime I hear them I think of the Wrestlemanias they were used for. The gimmick battle royal was fun and Kamala's appearance should of been his 3rd Mania appearance. It was hist first and last. He could have appeared at Wrestlemania 3 & Wrestlemania 9.

Where the Big Boys Play #52
The Clash 11 theme was quite awesome. Can you play it on the Great American Bash 90 episode of your podcast?

I guess Blair was supposed to team with Jim Brunzell to face the Brain Busters at the Challenge taping.

20 Years Ago - WON 08/08/88
Well, he still hosted All American Wrestling, so Dave lied about that. He should of just said he will be toned down to just PPV's, PPV Reports, Update, NBC, & AAW.

Funny part is when the bell rings too early when the faces go for the cover.

[1993-03-27-WWF-Superstars] Music Video: Wrestlemania
Seeing Damien Demento in the video was funny. They should do a remake of this, but with the current WWE Superstars like Sheamus, John Cena, etc, and keep the same theme.

24 Years Ago - 1-12-87 WON
Did any of the 1986 observers mention Outback Jack wrestling in dark matches at the WWF tv tapings? Also, does anyone have any Pro Wrestling Illustrated Weekly newsletters? It was a weekly newsletter that started in 1989 and ended in 2000. The cool thing was that they gave complete results for WWF and sometimes NWA/WCW tv tapings.

[1992-05-30-WWF-Superstars] Big Boss Man and Nailz
Intese angle. Funny, that you hear Nailz' actual voice saying "Come On", then later, you hear him say it in the deep voice, I guess someone forgot to adjust the mic, to make him sound like a monster.

[1991-12-03-WWF-This Tuesday In Texas] The Undertaker vs Hulk Hogan
Andre the Giant won the title and never wore it around his waist for the 30 seconds he held it for. For months, people wondered what was in the urn, and that night they found out. As for dimming the lights for Taker, it first started on Raw 7/5/93 against Samu. Since the PPV had 5 matches, they should of just moved the PPV to Saturday and called it Saturday Night's Main Event on PPV.

[1991-06-01-WWF-Superstars] Earthquake, Jimmy Hart and Andre the Giant
I'm really surprised that Andre never appeared on the Funeral Parlour, with Bearer trying to manage Andre, then we could of had the greatest tag team of all time. Andre the Giant & the Undertaker.
