1986-02-15 - NWA World Championship Wrestling

OK be honest here for a sec, do any of you miss these old tv studio wrestling days, or am I the only one?

[FyreStarting]

The intro takes me back to a simpler time and better wrestling. Goosebumps.

Man, posting this is stuff for all us old school NWA fans is truly an admirable thing, thanks so much. There are three damn clips I continue to hunt down: 1) NWA World Championship Wrestling w/ Luger vs. Big Bill Tabb. Tab gets of a good move and flexes his muscles to Luger but eventually submits to the Human Torture Rack...but the strength contest that Tabb wins was his one moment of glory I ever saw him have. 2) Flair promo, I believe on NWA World Wide Wrestling, during his feud with Windham. I think they showed the recent clip of Barry having the pin on Flair only for time to expire right as the ref counted to 3. And Flair's ending quote of the promo, "But Windham! The bottom line up belt)....I got you don't!" Then a long slow LOL. 3) Outdoor promo, probably at the Orange Bowl, by Flair on Wahoo McDaniel. And the wind is blowing the blonde locks and he screams, 'I've bled, sweat, and paid the price of a wrestling lifetime!" Can't find those three anywhere!

Once this era of wrestling went away so did my interest of watching. These were truly magical times.

Tully was one of the best heels ever, 80's style.
Original 4 Horsemen were great. Total magic.

The NWA Cameramen made this show the best

Oh man, I've been looking for the Ray Trailer/Tully match for years. That was the match that inspired Dusty to create the Big Bubba Rogers gimmick for Trailer. Can't believe I just stumbled on it after all these years.

1985-88 was incredible programming . The only thing that would have made this even better was if David Crockett had been there saying, “oh oh, Tony” or the Mulkeys getting pounded. My hats off to Jim Crockett Promotions!

Thanks again for sharing, keeps me from having to put my old VHS tapes out but I've noticed mine have the original music in them 📼 😉

Big Boss Man in his early days of wrestling 24:33, before he was the Big Boss Man & before he was Jim Cornette’s bodyguard, Big Bubba Rogers.

[Godgotron]

Condry messing with Tony in subtle ways during Midnight interviews always pop me! 😄

[Maestrohbill]

36:47 is Mandy Smithson, who later became Mrs Nikita Koloff and died from Hodgkins in 1988. 😢

[raptorsfreak]

24:42 very early BIG BOSSMAN match against Tully, only 22 years old and that BIG.

[AllianceLateNight]

The sequins leaving glitter bleed in the footage is priceless
