Had to watch the Muta v Hogan match. Muta's snap elbow off the ropes is a thing of beauty. His right hand is so fast it looks devastating but I bet he didn't even graze Hogan. For Hogan's part, I always heard he could go technical and had even seen flashes of it from time to time on vids posted here. This match really showed the depth he could work. He is so smart to know when to Brandon just certain aspects of his American character without leaving the recognizable core there in place. Every move met and fit into the next sequence. It was like a Flair match from the mid eighties

Holy crap, Nick Patrick was a wrestler? Started out as one. Son of the Assassin (Jody Hamilton) and was even one of the Assassins for a while (his "firing" is in one of the posts somewhere above). Injury forced him to retire and he became a ref instead.

I love this thread.
I got to see a teased Jim Duggan heel turn against Kamala in WWF 1993 at one of those multi-week TV tapings they used to do, but I don't think it ever aired. I wish it would turn up somewhere. FWIW, the main event of that show was the Mega Maniacs with Crush vs. Money Inc. with Giant Gonzales, and it ended with a Hogan/Gonzales confrontation. I do have a picture of that somewhere, but it is from the nosebleed seats.

I was shocked when I heard Bret Hart wrestled Andre The Giant in a singles match. I can't say for sure, but I think that made tv. I recall a Monday night Prime Time show from France. Weird tunnel entrance and green laser light everywhere.

I'm guessing OSHA simply didn't exist in the 1980s
