Posted May 5, 201213 yr comment_5501822 Narrated history of Mad Dog and family with highlight clips is pretty cool. Mad Dog Vachon/Verne Gagne v. Nick Bockwinkel/Bobby Duncum JIP. Not sure of the date but it would have been the early 80's. Mad Dog locks a sick Boston Crab on Bock but it gets broken up. Vachon is a beast in this and you gotta love Verne coming in and doing all the Mad Dog style rake spots. Cool spot as Duncum breaks up an ab stretch with a huge shot that Vachon sells, but then rolls into a pinning combo. Vachon goes for a big boot, but Bock catches his foot and pulls him to the mat in the heel corner in an act of pure desperation. The clip ends right as it starts to get awesome. BOO Mad Dog Vachon/Crusher v. Jerry Blackwell/Big John Studd JIP. Pretty crazy match, with Studd bleeding a gusher, Mad Dog biting it, Blackwell fucking crushing Dog, et. Afterward their is a near riot as they cart out Mad Dog. EXTRA Mad Dog Vachon v. Mr. Saito Saito ambushes Mad Dog after the salt ceremony, but Mad Dog comes back by biting his barefoot. Saito takes back over and this is starting to get good when the Baron hits the ring and salts Saito and the match ends. Nick Bockwinkel v. Mad Dog Vachon Crusher is with Mad Dog. Bock ambushes the Dog at the bell and takes control, but Mad Dog comes back with a fishook snap mare, which is even more awesome than it sounds. Heenan and Okerland almost come to blows at ringside as Bock gets bashed into the table. Bock escapes a fall by putting his leg on the ropes, so Vachon bites his leg. Bobby tries to help Bock and gets his hand bitten for his efforts. Mad Dog ends up hitting a piledriver, but Heenan interfered at the same time so the finish is kind of clunky. Post-match the faces destroy Heenan and Bock, with Bobby taking a lunatic bump over the top to the floor. Possible EXTRA
May 7, 201213 yr comment_5501960 The Mad Dog/Verne vs. Bock/Duncum match is from late 1979. The Vachon/Crusher tag bout vs. Studd/Blackwell is the match that started the Dog's feud with Blackwell. Vachon never came back to the twin cities for more than a year after that bout as I recall, hence the "Blackwell put me out of wrestling" storyline for that feud.
