Mad Man Pondo vs Super Ninja



This is a portion of a broadcast of Herb Abram's UWF promotion.

The group featured former stars who were able to make decent money on a limited basis.

Possibly because the other matches, such as this one, featured 'talent' that was very inexpensive.

That and the pay-per-views that drew 400 paid to 6,000 seat arenas and drew buy rates so low they make the Marianas Trench seem like K2. But enough, let's not put boot in on the product.

Because Capt Lou Albano and Bruno Sammartino, the commentators and money-making legends, put the boots to this for us.

And they were paid to do it.

Only in UWF.

Scott Hall and Larry Zbyszko watch Hulk Hogan vs Ultimate Warrior




Maybe I should send them some GCW to watch.
Not sure how they'd take Big Jobs vs Sullen Magpie.

Norvell Austin vs Ted Allen



Now I'll clarify that there is nothing wrong with this match.

This is classic, simple, late 70's TV wrestling with two talented wrestlers.

What's worth noting though, is the commentary.

It is THE old-time, cliche-filled southern wrestling commentary.

"The BODY-slam."

"Went down like a sack of dimes"


etc

It's all there.
