For me it was Kerry Von Erich and Jerry Lawler trying to unify Lawlers promotion and WCCW. The creative of the match was brilliant. Nothing happened and people shelled out a lot.

40 Years Ago Today, Kerry Von Erich Won His Only World Championship From Ric Flair®.

If You Haven’t Watched On WWE Network, Or Peacock I Would Recommend It. It Was Before My Time But Definitely Great Action Watching The Von Erichs Work.

その昔、テレビ東京「世界のプロレス」という番組で、当時のWCCWの試合を何度か見た。ベビーフェイスとしてのエリック兄弟の地元人気は凄くて、間違いなくプロレス業界を席巻していた。
その後の聚落ぶりは映画の通りだが、実際の方がもっと悲惨だったという事実が、悲しみを倍増させる。

I’ve been watching Missy Hyatt since WCCW.. she’s been in the mud, arm wrestled psycho yuppies & had beer poured on her during entrances. She always has gotten “it” & elevates everyone she works with. Loved seeing her at having the best time. Long live the 1st Lady
