Those are some amazing pictures from an era of WCW that I feel was the BEST era for that company.

July 11, 1987 UWF TV Taping. The night Big Bubba (Big Bossman) lost the UWF title to Dr. Death Steve Williams. It was electric. The best show I went to as a child. This was in OKC. Jim Ross interviewing Chris Adams & Sting. Jim Ross interviewing Terry Gordy Big Bubba w/the clothesline on Dr. Death Dusty Rhodes & Sting in the ring and Rick Steiner w/his back to the camera outside the ring Terrible photo. Terry Gordy vs. Black Bart Hawk. Such a good photo for my 10 year old self. Steve Cox winning a "$10,000 on a pole" battle royal The Terminator & Gary Young vs. Brad Armstrong & Tim Horner Barry Windham vs. Dick Murdoch

June 5, 1987. First WWF show I ever went to. House show in OKC. Main event was supposed to be Volkoff & Sheik vs. Duggan & JYD, but Sheik & Duggan were fired several weeks before the show, so it ended up being JYD vs. Volkoff. Bad pics, but I was 10 and using a kid camera. Killer Bees vs. Bob Orton & Don Muraco Midgets!! Karate Kid is one of them. Don't know the rest. JYD leaving after main event w/Dave Hebner providing security. The good old days... JYD vs. Volkoff Bad photo, but this is Killer Khan vs. Ted Dibiase. It was EARLY in Dibiase's return to WWF and he wasn't the Million Dollar Man yet. Obviously a terrible photo, but it's Tito Santana vs. Butch Reed [/url] Another bad one of Volkoff vs. JYD

A few randoms. I have a lot more from these shows, but they aren't very good: January 25, 1987 UWF TV Taping in Oklahoma City Terry Gordy vs. Dr. Death Steve Williams w/Sunshine at ringside (the thing I most remember about this show, which was the first wrestling show I ever went to, was that a man came over the rails and attacked the One Mang Gang as he was leaving the ring) March 3, 1987 UWF House Show in OKC Michael Hayes beating up One Man Gang w/Steve Cox down in the ring Savannah Jack vs. Iceman King Parsons in a leather strap match Eddie Gilbert Baby Doll vs. Sunshine November 5, 1987 Central States Wrestling Association House Show in Wichita, KS Karate Kid vs. Little Tokyo (Little Tokyo was in Wrestlemania III). Was visiting family and my uncle took me to this show. Rufus "Freight Train" Jones, Bulldog Bob Brown, Porkchop Cash, Earthquake Ferris were some of the guys on the show

Those are great dixol. WWF never did a TV taping in Oklahoma until Raw in the late 90's. You got to see some good matches that night. The return of Snuka after 4 years gone. Warrior vs. Savage. Hulk vs. Bossman. Rockers vs. Arn & Tully. Good stuff!

That Quake/Perfect photo is amazing! Perfect would probably only be a few days or weeks before the classic colorful outfits. Quake started wearing dark brown outfit and then the Canadian flag logo around late 89/early 90. Do you remember how the match went?

6-6-2002. I don't know what constitutes classic, but if it involves Hogan, it's classic in my book. I got to sit on the front row for Smackdown in OKC on this date. The show kicked off w/a 20 man battle royal to determine the #1 contender. Hulk & HHH were the final two and they hit the floor at the same time. So, they had a 1 on 1 match later that night. To my knowledge, they only had two matches vs. each other. Pretty cool night. Here are some shots from those two matches and the bonus aftermath. HHH arriving for the battle royal Hogan arriving for the battle royal Hogan squaring off w/Kurt Angle during the battle royal Hulk arriving for the rematch HHH coming out for the rematch The match HHH won and then they shook hands and posed for the crowd After they posed down, and Smackdown ended, The Undertaker came through the crowd and attacked HHH. I've got more photos from this show if you guys want to see them.
