The only thing I remember about The Viper was the match in which he was unmasked. Sam Houston was about to finish him off with a bulldog headlock. The Viper pushed Houston off, but Houston took the mask with him. Houston wrestled Mike Davis in a falls count anwhere match a little while later that ended when they brawled to the back and at some point Sam Houston came out with a chainsaw and was stripped of the GWF TV Title by the GWF's Commissioner (who was dressed to the nines and had a couple of skanks with him and strapped the TV Title belt around one of their waists after stripping Sam Houston) and suspended him for a year. Which then resulted in Sam Houston coming back wearing a mask of his own to circumvent the suspension.

I think that I remember a similar interview where the interviewer was searching for the Viper and found him hanging upside down out of an attic door or something.

And Joe Castellini, I am guessing he was one of the first heel figureheads, way before NWO Eric Bischoff and Mr. McMahon! He also fined Butch Reed for getting fire thrown in his face by Skandor Akbar, claiming that Reed was drunk and his breath lit up the fireball. Eventually he was fired for his corrupt practices, and came back as a homeless guy who'd sit on commentary and offered sappy lines about how he'd turn his life around. If GWF wasn't as obscure as WCW, Grey Pierson would be right up there with Vince Russo, neck and neck. I also bet one of the skanks pawned off the TV title, as that too would soon be represented by the tag belts, as literally ALL the titles in Global would be post-Pedicino. |

I would love to see a complete or at least semi-complete version of the "Maniac" Mike Davis gimmick. I watched Global as often as I could but then somehow missed it for over a year and in that time he had turned face somehow. |

Does the E own the Global footage? I'd buy the hell out of GWF: the complete series.

The Rock n Roll RPMs were the greatest tag team of 1987
