Action Figures Friday: The Baron and Johnny Weaver

 

NWA TV Champion Baron Von Raschke applies his famous claw-hold on Johnny Weaver, in this image memorializing their famous 1978 feud. Weaver eventually won out, defeating Raschke in a sleeper-vs.-claw match on Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling television.

Great stuff as always from collector Mike Simmerman. Thanks, Mike!
