This was a WWF Title Match between Hart and Savage in 1994 at a house show. Apparently, Bret and Savage were supposed to have a much shorter bout with Hart winning strong, but neither liked it, called an audible then tore the house down. It's a camcorder from '94 so its gar from HD. Thanks for sharing that. That was a quick tap by Savage. It still made him look weak. It's basically my dream match! My two favorite wrestlers.

Would you ever consider a battle pack of Sgt Slaughter and Col Mustafa (iron sheik) in their military uniforms in the future? Very bad timing to get this imo

Piggybacking on the LJN question above, is there any chance of you guys doing a line based on the prototypes of the ill-fated articulated LJN figures? Which figures were going to be included?

Here is there last match together, not good, not bad. Not sure why they didn't just bring them out as Powers of Pain, I'd imagine that Vince didn't own that name since they worked that gimmick before him. They reduced them to Dos and Uno lol

You are correct sir! circa September 85.
I miss that place. One of the meccas of wrestling back in the day. Many memories for this humanoid in that building.
Here it is: Yep, September 28, 1985. At 17:14, a most beautiful sight... It's crazy how close the fans are to the ring. Not a safe environment at all. Also, first time I have seen that much crap thrown in a WWF ring that I can remember. That's a WCW crowd thing!

They all look exactly the same other than the newer one with the preppy hair, so you can't go wrong with any of them.

My favorite feud, my only problems being: - Hogan winning - Hogan playing the face
To me Hogan is the ultimate cheapshot heel. He sacred like a heel but didn't get booed by the crowd, other than eliminating Sid.
I was such a Savage mark that I was still cheering for him as Macho King. I think he was the only heel people would really get behind

Is there a tag team that rivals the Rockers in the WWE today? Answer no. And the Rockers were probably like the 3rd most over tag team at the time!!! Great year for wrestling
Oh please! If The B Team of Bo Dallas and Curtis Axel isn't dead ringers for Shawn and Marty, then I don't know who else could be?! Ha ha ha
Haha! So sad though, why aren't they playing on the Perfect and IRS gimmicks? I love second generation wrestlers and would be more interested in watching the current product if there were more nods to the past or incorporation of the past.

I think people have the right to be upset with the recent distribution issues. Maybe they don’t go about it the right away all the time. However, when stores don’t carry elites for months at a time it’s a problem. Elites fly off the selves so there is a need/want for the product. I don’t know who’s at fault but it needs to get fixed. Well, it's not Mattel so stop complaining here before we scare off AFA.

Hogan showed at SummerSlam 90 why he was still the man. He made his match/feud with Quake at that event seem bigger and better than Rude vs. Warrior in the cage for the Title that followed that match. I saw it differently as a kid. That Rude and Warrior match was epic other than it having the wrong ending. I was so mad at Rude when he turned around at the top of the cage to attack Warrior. He should have gone over Warrior and lost the belt back to Warrior at Survivor Series
