1985 was not a good year for Rick McGraw.
And future Horseman Paul Roma appeared on this show? Impressive.

By the way, whoever thought of promoting a wrestling event and calling it the "Jostle" needs to live in a house made entirely of gold.
Also, I just want to say that ANGLE FEARS ANDRE

Andre's move there looked a lot like CM Punk's finisher from last night.

This is one of those situations where Andre was going up against a believable threat.

This is my kind of wrestling. This is the year I started watching wrestling, and this type of match is one of the reasons. The "big match" feel beats "workrate" any day of the week.

It's interesting to note that I think the "trade" that took place between Jimmy Hart and Bobby Heenan which sent Adrian Adonis and The Missing Link to Hart for King Kong Bundy was actually taped BEFORE this evening but not aired until much later.

To this day I have no idea how Andre fit into those short trunks.
Is this the Harts/Bulldogs match from Bret's DVD? God knows there were many of them.
