I am so pissed my tape ran out for all of this. The cage match looks sweet.

apparently Bruce Lee couldn't carry Steamboat's shoes....I'd say that's debatable

Was this the show where George Steele turned face? This may have been his first match as a face, I'm not sure. But he had already been face prior to this because they were doing those skits with Albano before this night.

You think Ricky Steamboat is related to that guy from the early 90's that dressed up like a dragon? They look the same.
