Posted September 5, 201114 yr comment_5481866 Bobby Heenan promo. Pretty fun watching Heenan cut a promo on Lawler. He announces Lanza as his new hired hand. EXTRA Greg Gagne v. Adrian Adonis We have this already. Mad Dog Vachon promo. Vachon ranting about graduating from University because they are wrestling on that campus amuses me. Blackwell/Adnan promo. Another good one. Bock/Heenan promo. They say they'll never give Lawler a rematch. This sets up the punch angle. Next up is Kauffman/Lawler on Letterman which is not relevant to this set. Bock/Heenan promo. Another great anti-Lawler promo, on the front end of The Punch angle. EXTRA Brunzell promo. Mad Dog promo. Gene announces that Mad Dog will have to have a partner v. Sheiks. Announces his partner will be Baron Von Raschke who walks on the set. Mad Dog is suddenly pleased. EXTRA Blackwell promo responding to the announcement accusing Mad Dog of a conspiracy with the AWA brass. This is all a good set up to the great match at the Civic Center and the eventual return of Verne as Mad Dogs partner. EXTRA Ventura promo. Funny promo with Gene mocking Jesse's fashion. Buck Zumhofe promo. This is fucking awesome as Buck's boombox plays the whole time and he walks on the set with it. Fucking hilarious. EXTRA Heenan/Patera/Lanza promo. Heenan promo. Cool promo post-sale of Patera's contract. High Flyers promo. Responding to Heenan promo. Bock promo. Another great promo on Lawler interrupted by Zumhoffe's boombox. Sheiks promo. As one of the early Sheiks promos this should maybe make the set. EXTRA Rick Martel promo Ventura promo. Hilarious Mike Graham pre-tape. He's comically heeling it up. Possible EXTRA Zumhoffe promo. He responds to the charges of how Graham doesn't think he's a man. Jesse Ventura/Blackjack Lanza v. Wahoo McDaniel/Jake Milliman JIP. This is 2/3 falls and opens up after Wahoo has shocked Lanza to win the first fall. Wahoo controls when he is in, but when Milliman comes in he gets brutalized with the heels constantly picking his shoulders up on near falls. Milliman takes a wild bump on a hot shot. Second fall goes to the heels with Lanza's claw. All hell breaks loose and Heenan decks Wahoo with brass knucks busting him open. Awesome brawl with Wahoo destroying Heenan as Lanza and Ventura are chased to the back. EXTRA Bock promo. Bock is livid about Wahoo's attack on Heenan. Gene is trying to be the voice of reason but Bock is fucking outraged. This is a great promo. Lanza shows up with Heenan's bloody jacket freaking out. EXTRA Mad Dog/Baron promo. Mad Dog gives us a Middle East history lesson. Talks about being born in Algeria and digging in Garbage cans to live. Complains that Blackwell is the antithesis of a man because he's so fat while poor Africans are starving to death. Mad Dog as Franz Fanon is a shocking turn of events, but makes for a great promo. EXTRA Next there is about thirty minutes of non-AWA stuff Mad Dog promo. Mad Dog is putting over a stretcher match with Blackwell. Wahoo promo. High Flyers promo. I like these guys in the ring, but their promos leave a lot to be desired. The infamous Mad Dog pinebox promo Sheiks promo. Blackwell is pissed that they aren't getting a tag title match and instead he's forced to wrestle Mad Dog. EXTRA Bock/Lanza/Ventura/Heenan promo setting up a six-man v. Lawler/Wahoo/Bruiser. Wahoo promo. They cover the attack from a few weeks back. Wahoo puts over the six-man. Bock/Lanza promo. Bock is on fire as always. Baron promo Adnan/Patera promo. Baron promo. Hulk Hogan v. Nick Bockwinkel We have this already. Bock/Heenan promo. They put over the match with Hogan as the toughest in Bock's career. EXTRA Sheiks promo after winning the belts backstage. Gene is livid about the way they won. Sheiks are talking about taking the belts back to Baghdad. Karbo shows up livid and sets up a return match. EXTRA Wally Karbo promo. Karbo announces that if the Sheiks miss any of their title defense they will be stripped. Lanza/Heenan promo. Heenan is livid about Wahoo. A crawl rolls across the bottom saying Hogan will be at ringside during a Wahoo/Bock title match and Heenan goes batshit crazy. EXTRA Baron promo Nick Bockwinkel v. Rick Martel JIP. Nearly positive we have this elsewhere. No more than 5 or 6 minutes anyway. Hogan promo. Insane Hogan promo talking about stalking Bock. They pitch to Gene with Karbo. Karbo announces that there are petitions coming in to get Hogan to come back from his self imposed hiatus after not winning the title from Bock. EXTRA David Schultz promo. Great Dr. D promo ranting about what a redneck is. Mr. Saito promo. Wahoo promo. Adnan/Patera promo. He has a newsaper with Saddam on it. High Flyers promo. They announce Mad Dog as their partner in a six-man v. Sheiks David Shultz promo with a Hogan t-shirt in the background. Dr. D says Hogan left because he showed up on the scene. Saito promo burying American wrestlers. EXTRA Lanza/Heenan promo Wahoo promo. He complains about Indian discrimination. AWESOME segement with Saito supposedly given Hogan an award from Japanese promotions. he ends up destroying Hogan after throwing salt in his eyes. VQ is not the best but the segment rules. Ranting Saito promo afterward with Okerland sans sportscoat freaking out is great too. EXTRA
