The best war games match of all time.

I LOVED the clotheslines Animal delivered on Terry Gordy 4:40-4:45. As Bob Caudle would say…thunderous clotheslines!

(cont) I would probably never partake in but it was hard not to get swept up in the atmosphere, it was infectious.
Paul Heyman was thanking everyone and shaking their hands in grattitude like he owned the company – he was always very respectful of everyone regardless of where they were on the card. On my last day, he stopped me as I was leaving the building and gave me his card, saying that he’d put me in touch with some people if I couldn’t get booked. A class act and i’ll never forget that.

I remember sitting backstage with Buzz Sawyer and Brian Pillman – we were all wrestling fans growing up but I think we all felt that we were watching something very special and that professional wrestling as we knew it was taking a very different direction.
I remember the Freebirds and old Doc, Steve Williams coming back absolutely pumped up after this match, whooping and hollering and picking people up. It was hard because I began to realise that I was seeing a level of wrestling that (cont)

The Road Warriors at the time had a feud with the SST. And the Midnight Express were feuding with the Freebirds over the World Tag team belts after they were beaten (cheated!)in the Tag Title tournament final at the Clash of the Champions. They were vacant because the champs (Dr. Death and Mike Rotunda) were stripped after they won the belts from the LOD, when the ref (Teddy Long) pulled a Danny Davis and fast counted the LOD at Wrestle War ’89.

It shocks me as well and I am 24. I remember watching NWA/WCW in the late 80s early 90s on ITV here in the UK and on video tape. When JR showed up at WM IX i said straight away to my friends wow its the guy from WCW. I loved his commentaries and the way he knew everything the wrestler did before hand. He loved Ron Simmons american football background.

I always associated J.R. with WCW and was in shock to see him at Wrestlemania IX.

Does anyone else here find it amazing that Dr. Death and Gordy would become one of the greatest tag teams of all time? And in this match the Doc is pressing him over his head.
Lando1981
who would ever thought Steve Williams and Terry Gordy would become a tag-team later on not only in NWA/WCW and Japan?
