WWF Wrestling Challenge (September 28th, 1986)

[DJBisGOD]

I love watching these old shows, very nostalgic from when I was a kid watching wrestling for the first time

[bigbrytunney]

This was taped at Wicomico Youth & Civic Center in Salisbury, MD on Sept. 17th 1986

27:55 Looks as if The Wizard had his hand in the bag of Cosmic Cookies before cutting these promos! 😂

[AnsonBeeker]

I'm surprised Lanny Poffo didn't go into radio or TV voice overs after wrestling.

[BudSchnelker]

"That thing belongs in a bag of shake and bake." Another top 100 quip by Heenan.

Face debut of Wayne Farris (Honkey Tonk Man) cousin of Jerry Lawler which didn’t last long, his heel turn & link up with Jimmy Hart occurred a very short time later…..

The original entrance music for Koko B Ware. 2:24. The Bird by Morris Day and the Time.

[Bertminator]

8:30 "Lucious Brown"...isn't that Virgil? Ted Dibiase's later bodyguard?!

[lenwennerberg]

8:20 that guy looks VERY familiar. 🤔 He might have a future washing cars and shining shoes.

I was obviously a very young kid at this time, but I did not know the Honky Tonk Man started out as a baby face. The earliest I can remember him is at Summerslam '88, when he was squashed by the Ultimate Warrior.

Love Lannie Poffo for that special olympics shout out. Geez, this is way cool. RiP macho man and Lannie.

[aliism]

Was he eating a real fish? That's dedication right there

[PhillyBagel]

I’m amazed Koko’s entrance music wasn’t dubbed over.

[lenwennerberg]

Sheiky Baby had a six-pack and a beer belly going at the same time here. This guy was the real deal. 👍

[mrg]

No one sings The Russian National Anthem better than Nikolai Volkoff. 33:17.

[gertpacu]

Oh Lanny Poffo... Why did you get a perm?

[richardwatson]

If you have never seen Koko’s match vs Ric Flair in Memphis look it up. You will be glad you did!

[lenwennerberg]

31:25 Good God almighty, The Wizard's forehead looks like a Google map of downtown Los Angeles.

[michaelpatanella]

Wow look at a VERY YOUNG VIRGIL at 8min 27sec

[planetschlock]

That might be the first time I've seen someone actually trip over a drop-down as intended.
