Why are there USWA episodes filed under GWF? From what I can figure, all the episodes of both seem to focus on Steve Austin, but they are different companies, right?

AWA features the debut of Sean Micheals! Who uses the superkick as a setup for an aerial move!

Also Bun Boy Barton.

When WCCW merged with CWA in Memphis, they created USWA. They ran cards in both Memphis area and Texas. These are the Texas shows. When GWF started up, I guess they bought the rights to the Texas USWA footage and made some Best of type shows. Not sure if it was just to fill air time or what, but its basically GWF Presents Best of USWA.

Wednesday at 4:30 PM Eastern, It will be a brand-new episode of "Unfiltered with Renée Young" with Sasha Banks talking about her cousin Snoop Dogg, K Pop and more.

As is tradition with Unfiltered I am looking forward to being being furious at how short this interview will be.

I've never watched 80s wrestling before but I started randomly watching NWA Jan 5 1986 and I love all these promos where they replay a brawl from Starrcade(?) and have the faces and heels give opposing takes on it

this Baby Doll angle, though, not so great

except for WHEN YOU GET ON SPACE MOUNTAIN, YOU'LL BE LIKE THIS *Flair flops*

I was just watching wccw 54. the recap of flair vs kerry von erich and holy gently caress! Kerry was punching the gently caress out of flair.

The Stampede episodes have been removed, apparently because of a rights issue involving Bret Hart.

The music can't be the original right? The intro and montage music 3 minutes in is fantastic, in a music library sort of way

I think it's all replaced, because I went on youtube trying to find that intro theme and I can't.

According to Big Dave, Bret owns the rights to all of his Stampede matches. He contacted WWE over it, WWE ignored him and Bret threatened to possibly sue them if they continued using it.

Does Bret plan on ever doing anything with his Stampede footage? WWE should just buy him out and be done with it.

Bret just being willing to sell the footage for a fair price seems way too simple for Bret.

I watched one episode of Stampede that someone posted here and it was hilarious, what with Bruce Hart murdering a promo, every non-white guy being a heel, Mr. Wrestling's "this worked in the 60's" gimmick, a guy saying he is rich because he has cigars, and so on. Hope it comes back.

I think Bret is still very protective of his image. I'm not surprised that he owns the stampede footage of himself. In his autobiography, he talked about how he wanted rights to ask of his matches. I think WWE owns the rest of Stampede but I don't think most people would be interested in anything that's not Bret.

Maybe Bret is embarrassed by his early stuff?

Randy Savage and his brother Lanny notoriously hated whenever anything from their dad's ICW promotion would pop up years later
