I remember Austin Idol from the late 70s WTBS NWA wrestling (with 
Gordon Solie).  I believe he was a heel back then (but I still 
cheered for him)  :-)

Last I saw of Austin Idol was in the GWF near the end of last year for 
one of their many tournaments.

It's not just you.  I mean, I understand that the Hart family is pretty much
all involved in wrestling in one way or another, but this is getting
rediculous.  In the interview with Stu and Helen it really looked like Stu was
sitting there thinking "You Son of a Bitch, I can't believe you're making us do
this."  Maybe I wouldn't mind so much if any of them (including Bret and Davey
Boy) had any charisma or acting ability.  As it stands now, every time I see
one of these lame interviews I wonder who gives a flying fuck what the Hart
family thinks about this match.  It sure doesn't help that I know it's an angle
for the marks, but I probably wouldn't care even if it were true.

Bill Watts is looking for anyone who has tapes of wrestling
from WTBS from the 1970s to use for the September Clash of
the Champions.  

I didn't start watching wrestling on WTBS until about 1973 or
1974, and didn't have access to a VCR until over a decade
later, but I have to think SOMEONE has that stuff on tape.

Personally, I'd like to see a few hundred hours of that stuff
again, but I'd settle for a half-hour of clips during the
Clash.

Apparently, no one STILL EMPLOYED BY WCW has any tapes.  This
might mean Flair or someone has tapes but is not in a position
to loan them to WCW.

Duggan was a heel as part of Skandor Akbar's Rat Pack (along with a
clean-shaven Ted DiDiase and I think Butch Reed). Duggan's first

This is debatable. Watching his fued with Eddie Gilbert, I'd be tempted
to say that Hot Stuff was the heel and Cactus was the face, IMHO.

Date: 20 Aug 92 19:43:45 GMT
Organization: ASK Computer Systems, Inc.

Can anyone out there post a summary of the NWA singles final
involving Masahiro Chono and Rick Rude?  

(On WCW Saturday Night last weekend they violated the previous
rumour of a weekend devoted to highlights when they announced
these would be part of the next Clash of Champions...and I don'
want to wait that long!) 

There's also no Observer for 2-3 more weeks as Meltzer's on
vacation, so if any other sheet summarizes the match can someone
post it?  

I guess I'm so curious about this because of (a) size difference,
even though Chono's pretty big by Japanese standards, (b) lack of
working together in the past, and (c) even more important, regarding
item [b], what did Rude look like when put into the STF?  Seems to
me he could break it with ease.

Even without seeing the match, I'm really psyched Chono won and
hope WCW can bring him in on at least a semi-regular basis ala Muto(/a)
and Liger and Hase.  Of course, Bill Watts would probably program
Chono with Sting or some other super-over face so that WCW fans
can remain xenophobic...(who could forget Chono and Hase being booed
on their way to the ring last year when they were getting ready to
face the Steiners at one of the Clashes?  In NJPW, these guys--
especially Hase--put the "baby" in babyface!).

I meant to say something about this earlier, but such is my schedule...

During a lull in Pat Robertson's speech the other day, I turned to Comedy 
Central, only to see Jerry Lawler taking on Andy Kaufman.  This was from
the Saturday Night Live episode hosted by Danny DeVito.  It was very 
interesting to see it once again.  One point of curiosity I noticed was 
that the level on Lance Russell was quite high, not to mention the level 
on sounds eminating from the ring itself.  They obviously messed with the 
sound mixing when they put it on SNL.  After they showed the clips of the 
match, they had Kaufman sitting there with Brian Doyle-Murray, and 
Kaufman was very apologetic about it all.

I saw this when it first aired, but it was interesting to see again.  I 
know they aired some additional stuff before the match, but I tuned in 
while they were showing the match and I really can't remember what else 
they showed.

Well, if we are nitpicking.  Don't forget that in between, Dusty tried
to start up his ill fated Florida promotion, with himself as lead face
of course, which went straight in the toilet.  Then, he took on the
polka dots and the 300 pound valet.

In the past, Jim Ross had been saying that WCW 'definitely did

saying that Sid wouldn't be that bad "with the proper

Anyone else think we might see Sid back in WCW after softball
