This Day in Wrestling History: 5/28/20

5/28/2020

 
​As always wrestling gives us both great memories and memories we try and forget, but with the amount of moments worth remembering that have happened we are bound to forget some. The same could be said about some talent that were very much underrated during their career or never at the top of a company during a run this unfortunately makes it easier for fans to forget certain talent. These two are very different talent and had two very different careers while they worked in this great business. Sometimes we encounter those that deserve to be remembered and acknowledged. I would like to wish a very big Happy Birthday to all who are celebrating their special day today and especially to the one featured below.​
Happy Birthday to Chaz Warrington who turns 51 years  old 
Happy Birthday to Seth Rollins who turns 34 years old

Match of the Week: Road Warriors vs Fabulous Freebirds

5/15/2020

 
Earlier this week the Road Warriors were the subject of the most recent edition of Dark of the Ring and I thought it was fitting to find a match of there's worth sharing. Instead of looking later in their careers to find one that highlights them when things started heading south I chose a match from the height of the Road Warriors. Both Animal and Hawk debuted in the 1980's and within three years were among the biggest stars in wrestling. These two were and still are unlike most anything or anyone who has spent foot in the ring ever since. 

This week's Dark Side of the Ring took a look at the Road Warriors life and career as a tag team they also spent time talking about the issues that trouble Road Warrior Hawk for most of his in ring career. I have said it before and will again Dark Side of the Ring is the best wrestling documentary out there today. Though some might have been a miss not everyone can hit a home run every time they take a swing. However, the season finale which takes place on Tuesday, May 19, will end things on a high note, because Owen Hart is where our season ends!!

Nerd Note: Randy Colley aka Moondog Rex had a long career prior to joining the Moondog tag team debuting in 1971 under the name Jack Dalton and switch to his real name for the first time in 1976 after joining Jim Crockett Promotions. Randy also was initially pegged to be under the face paint as Demolition Smash, but it was a case of Randy had been working under his real name the year before so it was easy to spot someone familiar and Barry Darsow took his spot. 

Happy Birthday to Randy "Moondog" Colley who would've turned 70 years old 
Happy Birthday to Caylen Croft who turned 40 years old
