Happy Valentine's Day!

Roses? No.     Chocolates? Never.
More likely a flying elbow smash.

If you're really lucky maybe your sweetheart will tie you up in some sort of half romantic/half kinky figure-four leglock.

What does Greg Valentine recommend? Break Wahoo's leg and brag about it.

Wishing you and yours a Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day

We hope everyone has a Happy Valentine's Day weekend. Buy your sweetie a dozen roses, some chocolate candy . . . and then make them watch some old Mid-Atlantic Wrestling!  Of course, beware of a big hammer out of nowhere and a "flying elbow smash" (as the great Bob Caudle used to call it.) If you're lucky, you'll finish up with some sort of romantic figure-four leg-lock!

Mid-Atlantic Wrestling Cookies

 

David Chappell's wife Diana had some incredibly cool Mid-Atlantic Wrestling logo cookies made for Dick Bourne's 60th birthday. She's the best!

Now that's a classic way to celebrate!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Love?   Romance?
Nope. Just break a man's leg and brag about it.

Deck The Halls: Georgia Wrestling Christmas

The following is a part of compilation of features that the Turner broadcasting company did each year in the late 1970s and early 1980s where each of their in-house pograms presented a Christmas-themed video.

I believe, although not 100% sure, this is from 1982.




Front row (L-R) Bruno Sammartino, Jr., Gordon Solie, Mr. Wrestling II, Freddie Miller, Ted Oates 
Back Row: (L-R) Bob Armstrong, Brad Armstrong, Big Red, Michael Hayes, (undetermined), Tommy Rich.

Others seen in brief wrestling clips are Austin Idol, Mike Jackson, El Gran Apollo,  Ken Timbs, Terry Gordy, Ole Anderson, and a few others.

Not sure who that is between Michael Hayes and Tommy Rich - - sort of looks like a very young Steve Lombardi. Anyone have any ideas?

Merry Christmas!

Special Thanks to our Veterans

Military.com
A heart-felt thank-you to all our military veterans and active duty service members.

Your dedication and sacrifice for the sake of your family and fellow countrymen is appreciated.

And a note to the rest of us: don't confuse Veteran's Day with Memorial Day. Veterans Day is a time to thank those who are serving or have served and are still with us. Memorial Day is to reflect and remember those who lost their lives in service to their country. Confusing the two or combining the two diminishes the importance of both. (from Military.com.)
