June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679858 My other reason for taking him is that I figured he could work some west coast shows. Maybe some hideous matches against The Sheik.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679860 Robinson will be working my 70s AJPW Tribute tour with The Destroyer, Brisco and Dory Jr.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679861 Death of the territories by WWF takeover has never been more sure.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679863 Maybe now is the time for the long-awaited Baron Scicluna re-push, get him back up into the main event at MSG where he was in 1965.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679871 Well there goes Madril Be prepared for lots of Elvis Presley playing in the locker room. He was on my list and so was weingroff. Good picks at this stage I think.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679873 Madril is one of the most unlikeable babyfaces I have ever seen. I don't know what it is but it's just a thing.
June 22, 201510 yr comment_5679874 Right, but I have Steamboat and Ho could be like his uncle or something. Plus, some older fans might remember him. Steamboat's Uncle Ho is the worst gimmick I've heard in a while. It's even worse than my Ben Bass-Arab, American turncoat Sheik vs Bobby Bass, American Hero idea.

Also consider it if you are after Boon. This is to your advantage. If I want your guy I won't take him simply because I will find someone else for myself to keep it moving.
June 23, 201510 yr comment_5679914 I would also like to admit that I tried to draft AROUND guys who would be going to Japan. That Eddie Gilbert tour snuck up on me but I know he isn't going to be going on a whole lot of them.
June 23, 201510 yr comment_5679918 Seem to recall that he was another guy like Toru Tanaka that did some acting work at some point. He was probably chilling in Hawaii and not wrestling when not on the AJ tours I reckon.
June 23, 201510 yr comment_5679919 How's my average age doing now goc? 42.61 Without Steamboat or Backlund? 43.93
June 23, 201510 yr comment_5679920 Or maybe he was running a restuarant! During Kamaka's time in Calgary he opened an eatery called Tor's Teriyaki. After he left wrestling in 1987, he moved to Saskatoon where he opened a restaurant and a traditional Japanese hands-on-therapy business known as Shiatsu.
June 23, 201510 yr comment_5679929 Speaking of Hawaii, I'm kind of interested in Lars Anderson. What happened to him? What was his deal? Why did he disappear off to Hawaii? Kind of a weirdly lost guy. When I said he could still go before, I actually got him confused with Keith Larson (and his appearance on Starrcade 84). He looked good in that silent match I watched from 72 vs. Pat Patterson. And I enjoyed the Ole turn involving him around 79-80, but I don't think I've seen a whole lot of Lars.
June 23, 201510 yr comment_5679930 He was booking for Lia Maivia and was extorting money from her at the same time.
June 23, 201510 yr comment_5679931 Just found this: Lars is doing the interview. What promotion is that?
June 23, 201510 yr comment_5679935 Seems like there's a bunch of him working for IWA in the mid-70s on youtube. Just watched him do quite a nice suplex. On the topic of the Andersons, has anyone ever seen Gene look anything but old, slow and not very good? He doesn't even look good on the Garbage Tapes footage.
June 23, 201510 yr comment_5679937 Peachchaos - here is Lars kicking the living shit out of your boy Gama Singh: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkipnF3LIPk Lars looks like he was a proper ass kicker. Can't believe I had him confused with Keith Larson.
