Southwest Championship Wrestling, Houston, TX
So after watching the Adrian Adonis “Dark Side of the Ring,” I wanted to take my own advice and watch some old Adrian Adronis. This is one that I always think of quick, because it’s the time I learned how much different pre-“Adorable Adrian” was.
This is on the Wrestling Gold DVD set that came out in the early 2000s, which features Dave Meltzer and Jim Cornette commentary on and over some matches from the early 80s, mostly. It was an invaluable sort of pickup for someone like me then; like, these aren’t all great matches, but the footage and commentary combination is incredible for someone who wanted to know more, and this was long before all this type of stuff was easy to get within seconds, minutes, or hours.
It also also incredibly strange to hear Meltzer and Cornette sitting and having reasonable conversations. It’s tough to get old and have the world change.
(Requests open and tips always appreciated!)
