Oh man, rip Dennis Condrey. Together with Bobby & Jim they elevated the art form of tag team wrestling. When they had opponents like The R&R Express, it was truly magic.

@doublekrules Seven letters, two words: The Best

@_clipperdave_ In my opinion, it’s still the greatest I quit match in the history of wrestling!

Magnum TA 🩸 Tully Blanchard I Quit Match 🪑 Starrcade ‘85 Thanksgiving Night in Greensboro, NC 40 years on, the real shit stands the test of time. 💯

The Rock ‘n’ Roll Express⚡️Ole & Arn Anderson Smokin’ at Starrcade ‘86 Have a great Thanksgiving everyone 🍻

The WWWF roles into Providence, RI 11/23/74 #OTD From setting up the ring to the crowd rolling in, catch the vibe of a wrestling show from over half a century ago.

@MrXiphoid Rodger Kent

@_clipperdave_ The commentators were Lord Alfred Hayes, Superstar Graham, and who was the third commentator? I don’t know his name, but I recognize the voice from a lot of earlier AWA matches.

At her recent Grammy Salute concert, Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Famer Cyndi Lauper starts out by thanking "the wrestlers". A nice tip of the hat some 40 years later.

If you were a WCW fan in 1991 things were very bleak after Flair left nearly 5 months earlier. It was this show, more importantly during this match you could literally feel the tide shifting in the other direction.

Bob Caudle being the consummate host / broadcaster in this segment. He enhances everything transpiring at the right intervals without getting in the way, without over the top silliness. 👌 The MVP of Mid-Atlantic Sports.

Tony Atlas takes Ken Patera’s “feats of strength” challenge, or as Tony calls it Muscle Man Stuff. Mid-Atlantic Wrestling - May 1978

@JAX_Independent Right. Credible, brought out the psychology of the wrestling, stayed away from being cartoonish.

@_clipperdave_ I’m with you on Bob Caudle and Jim Ross as my favorite of all time. When Ross, Caudle and Gordon Solie were in rotation it felt like sports commentary vs wrestling commentary. The distinguished, serious older man calling wrestling straight and not doing schtick is peak commentary

🕯️RIP Bob Caudle My favorite announce team ever was Jim Ross & Bob Caudle. This match will give you just a taste of their greatness, but they elevated every match they called together. Barry Windham vs. Bam Bam Bigelow - Starrcade '88
