Obscure TV Show of the Day: NWA Japan 1986

By

You ever seen this? Just came across it myself on YouTube. It was apparently taped for the Japanese audience by NWA-JCP.

YouTube blows my fucking mind on a regular basis.  Kind of like that awesome ****1/2 Punk-Bryan match blew my mind.

    Yeah, but now we have to wonder if he's serious when it hits ***** or if he's just mocking us!

    According to his book, that's JJ Dillon under the mask as the American Eagle in the opener. He said that they needed a body to work the match, and since Dillon had worked for Baba in Japan, he volunteered.

    I love the garish pre-match titles they use(d) in Japan.

    The Bryan/Punk gag is starting to remind me of the Rob Thomas Weather tweet feed. Some are saying it's a troll, but you can see that it's progressing toward a payoff, making it better than 93% most modern wrestling angles.

    Ha, wish I would have found that Rob Thomas Weather tweet when it was live.

    I love YouTube. I was looking to get into some All Japan from the 90's and found a channel that has a bunch of videos of just All Japan. It's basically 400 videos of Jumbo, Misawa, Taue, Kobashi, Kawada, Williams, Ace, Hansen, Akiyama.

    I just watched DDT for a couple of hours on there. I'd say more, but my ears won't stop bleeding.
