So far, I have that you guys have seen up to the Flair-Adams match.

 

What matches on this tape have you not seen?

 

TAPE #A1424: WORLD CLASS WRESTLING from 1983:

DAVID VON ERICH v KAMALA- a good, bloody match.

CHRIS ADAMS v JIMMY GARVIN- good match where Adams wins the American Title.

KERRY VON ERICH & ICEMAN PARSONS v THE SUPER DESTROYERS

KEVIN VON ERICH v TERRY GORDY- another tremendous match. The Freebirds pummel Kevin after the match

ERNIE LADD v KAMALA

TERRY GORDY & JIMMY GARVIN v CHRIS ADAMS & JOHNNY MANTELL

NO DQ: KEVIN & MIKE VON ERICH v TERRY GORDY & BUDDY ROBERTS- if the Freebirds win, Michael Hayes gets to return to Texas. If the Freebirds lose, Terry and Buddy must go elsewhere. I actually thought this was the end of the Freebirds' Texas run! Shows how naive I was... Anyway, a "Santa Claus" in after the match, and Bill Mercer gets in a classic line: "I don't think that's actually Santa Claus....I think it's Michael Hayes!!".

RIC FLAIR v DAVID VON ERICH- excellent match, but horribly booked. Flair flagrantly tosses David over the top rope for an "autmaticDQ", but referee Davis Manning refuses to DQ the challenger. I know the local has to look god, but how deep can the NWA champ be buried?

KERRY VON ERICH v MISSING LINK

DAVID VON ERICH v TERRY GORDY- another excellent match!

 

RIC FLAIR v CHRIS ADAMS for the NWA title.

 

KEVIN VON ERICH v TERRY GORDY- in 1983 IMO...Gordy was the best Freebird, and Kevin was the best Von Erich. Super match!

MICHAEL HAYES & TERRY GORDY v KAMALA & MISSING LINK

MICHAEL HAYES, TERRY GORDY & BUDDY ROBERTS v KAMALA, MISSING LINK & SUPER DESTROYER #2- this match turns into a HUGE brawl where the Von Erichs help the Freebirds. Yet when the Von Erichs offer a handshake, it tuens into a Von Erichs v Freebirds brawl!

JUNKYARD DOG v MISSING LINK from Texas Stadium.

BADSTREET MATCH: FRITZ, KEVIN & MIKE VON ERICH v THE FREEBIRDS (Hayes, Gordy & Roberts) from Texas Stadium.

MICHAEL HAYES, TERRY GORDY, BUDDY ROBERTS & KILLER KHAN v KABUKI, MISSING LINK & THE SUPER DESTROYERS

KERRY VON ERICH v RIC FLAIR- Kerry defends the NWA title against Flair in an EXCELLENT MATCH- far better match then the one from Texas Stadium.

SUPER DESTROYERS v ICEMAN PARSONS & BUCK ZUMHOFF

KERRY VON ERICH v MISSING LINK

BAD STREET MATCH: KERRY, KEVIN & MIKE VON ERICH v MICHAEL HAYES, TERRY GORDY & BUDDY ROBERTS from Ft. Worth. INCREDIBLE MATCH- one of the top 10 mathes of the 80's!

 

KERRY VON ERICH v GINO HERNANDEZ- Gino returns after winning the American title in a ficticious match, and pins Kerry en route to his mega push.

KEVIN VON ERICH v KILLER KHAN- Michael Hayes runs in and attacks Killer Khan. Turns into a three way brawl.

TERRY GORDY v KILLER KHAN- the two engage in a GREAT BRAWL, then the ring fills with the Freebirds and Akbars guys...and the brawl gets wilder!

ICEMAN PARSONS & SKIP YOUNG v THE PRETTY YOUNG THINGS (Koko Ware & Norvall Austin)

KAMALA v RICK ROOD (later known as Rick Rude)- This match is actually from 1983, and Rood gets completely squashed.

KERRY VON ERICH, MIKE VON ERICH & BOBBY FULTON v GINO HERNANDEZ, CHRIS ADAMS & JAKE ROBERTS from the 1984 Cotton Bowl show. The heels win the titles, and Gino Hernandez now has THREE title belts!

RIC FLAIR v CHRIS ADAMS- very good match!

MIDNIGHT EXPRESS v THE FANTASICS- another tremendous match!

THE PRETTY YOUNG THINGS v THE FANTASICS

KEVIN VON ERICH v CHRIS ADAMS- EXCELLENT MATCH!!

KILLER KHAN v CHICK DONOVAN- Kevin Von Erich runs in after Khan.

What about these...

 

KERRY VON ERICH v CHRIS ADAMS- this match is from 1984. Good match where One Man Gang debuts by running in and destroying Kerry.

THE GRAPPLER & MISSING LINK v JOHNY MANTELL & DAVE PETERSON

LANCE VON ERICH v KILLER BROOKS

RICK RUDE v ICEMAN PARSONS

 

KAMALA v ONE MAN GANG

BRIAN ADIAS v JACK VICTORY

CAGE MATCH: JOHN TATUM v SCOTT CASEY- I thought cages were to prevent outside intereference, but Missy Hyatt and Sunshine are inside the cage.

KERRY & KEVIN VON ERICH v GINO HERNANDEZ & CHRIS ADAMS, with Terry Gordy and Brian Adias referees. Gordy hints toward a heel turn, while Gino and Chris hint toward their split.

ICEMAN PARSONS & BRIAN ADIAS v KABUKI & THE GRAPPLER

RICK RUDE v LANCE VON ERICH

JOHN TATUM & MISSY HYATT v SCOTT CASEY & SUNSHINE

ICEMAN PARSONS v JACK VICTORY

GINO HERNANDEZ v TOMMY MONTANA- Chris Adams goes after his former partner.

KERRY, KEVIN & LANCE VON ERICH v THE FREEBIRDS- they brought the Freebirds back way too early. It was as if they'd never left.

BRIAN ADIAS v THE GRAPPLER
