All of these are great classics. So why doesnt WWE make new ones. A lot of fans have already seen those shows in their entirety. The MSG house shows are shows that not a whole lot have seen. |

I really hope they show a few matches from January 1986. It was the 1st event I ever attended. I was 5 years old.
I remember the main event was Hogan vs. Savage....Savage won by count-out
Also on the card was Orndorff vs. Studd, The Dream Team vs. The Bulldogs, JYD vs. Adrian Adonis and the MSG debut of "SUPERFLY" Sivi Afi....
I remember being pissed because when Howard Finkel screamed "SUPERFLY"....I thought Snuka was coming out, but instead we got this 2nd rate Snuka rip-off....

We saw Brainbusters/Rockers on the very first MSG Classics last year. Glad to see a match between those two anytime. Two great teams. I'm waiting for 3/16/86 and 6/14/86... the first two I attended.

Is there going to be a new episode next week? If so, from what cards will the matches be?

I really think this show would translate well to DVD.
You could maybe release them as 2 disc sets, 2 shows at a time.
Only difference between the DVDs and the shows that air on MSG would be instead of clipped shows, we would get the entire original MSG broadcast with maybe an intro for each card by Mean Gene.
Classic WWE always sells well, these would be no different.
Just an idea.
