WWF All Star Wrestling – June 6, 1981

A new month brings us to the middle of 1981, and it’s been a great year so far with lots of new faces. Some exciting, some not so much. We’ve lost a few names from last year, some may return in the future, others are gone for good. Steve King continues his losing streak, as does Angelo Gomez, and a few others, while others are still undefeated. Tonight, in Hamburg, PA, we continue the year and our feature bout is Johnny Rodz & Baron Mikel Scicluna facing former tag champions, Rick Martel & Tony Garea. Let’s go to the ring. Read More »

WWF All Star Wrestling – May 30, 1981

We finally get to the start of a new taping cycle after stretching the last taping over four weeks by playing old matches.

Tonight our main event is Rick McGraw versus Angelo Mosca. Let’s go to the ring. Read More »

WWF All Star Wrestling – May 2, 1981

We enter another new taping cycle, and with each cycle I’m seeing more and more changes to what I recognize and less of the seventies look. Even some of the old guard is fading away and more of the mid eighties names are appearing, like George Steele, Don Muraco, Moondogs, etc. Soon we’ll see debuts from Greg Valentine, Nikolai Volkoff, and others. It’s interesting to see the changes as the WWF starts to get more of the weird and wild characters and away from the serious people. Not a lot of people were fans of the change, but it changed not just the WWF but the public perception of wrestling as well. The changes happen slowly, but watching these shows you can see it happening. At the end of this episode is a bonus match, not on the Network but it needs to be seen, stay tuned. Let’s go to the ring. Read More »

WWF All Star Wrestling – March 21, 1981

Last week we had a great six man match with the Tag Champions and Rick McGraw. Tonight the champions have a different partner, a man who probably weighs as much as the tag champions, Andre the Giant. Yes, it’s a very rare appearance from the Eighth Wonder of the World, as Andre gets in the ring tonight. Also scheduled to join us is the World Champion, Bob Backlund as this seems to be a very stacked episode. Let’s go to the ring. Read More »
