I was futzing around on History of WWE and found these weird results from a 1994 house show - Random Cuban Assassin appearance, random Greg Valentine appearance, random Gangrel appearance and Koko B. Ware... putting hot dogs in the ring? Man, I wish there was video footage of this show. I really hope the Hot Dog thing was followed by Duke Drose so he could come out and clean up before his own match.

Here's some wilderness years Ultimate Warrior vs. his old foe Hercules from Austria in 1993 (commentary is presumably in German) -

Good lord, that's a weird one. Long time ago in an RP E-Fed I was in, I was Taker and Warrior and held the tag championship. I gave them the team name Manic Depressive.

Hulk Hogan and Andre The Giant vs. King Kong Bundy, Big John Studd AND Bobby Heenan - www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehnLZDTDdxMNot sure who's commentating with Alfred Hayes here, but he refers to Hogan as "Hucker" at one point. At another point, Hogan uses the Junkyard Dog headbutt.

At another point, Hogan uses the Junkyard Dog headbutt. Alfred Hayes is commentating with Dick Graham. Graham was a staple on WWF programming in the Philadelphia area in the late 70's and 80's. I want to say he specifically worked for PRISM (the local cable sports channel) and not the WWF directly, but I could be completely wrong about that. Also, in a similar vein to the match you posted, here's a 1982 Handicap Match with Hogan and Andre teaming up to take on the AWA version of the Heenan Family. Here, the Heenan Family is represented by Heenan, Nick Bockwinkel, Ken Patera and "Big Bad" Bobby Duncum.

Some more early Hulk Hogan -
So, despite what the video title says, this is absolutely NOT 1976 Memphis-CWA. If my research is correct this is from a 1979 TV taping in Dothan, Alabama for Southeastern Championship Wrestling (the Fuller's territory). Also, The Outlaw may be a masked Tully Blanchard.

Did Tully ever work the Fullers territory in the first place? I thought he worked for his father most of his early career.

I mean, sticking a legit young prospect under a mask and sending them to another territory as a jobber for a few weeks to get some seasoning is far from unheard of back in the day. I don't know specifically if Tully ever did it though.

Jerishow reunited on the Jericho cruise, and they got to use the theme!

When he's in a team, he's got to rip off the other guy's stuff just to be cute.

I just learned the B Team of Bo Dallas and Curtis Axel maybe the first 3rd generation tag team.
Larry the Ax Hennig and Blackjack Mulligan teamed together in Puerto Rico, winning the IWA Tag Titles.
Curt Hennig and Mike Rotunda teamed in the AWA.
Finally, Curtis and Bo in WWE.
