I wish footage of the Funks and Foley with Heenan in their corner against the Midnight Express would pop up. I'm sure the match isn't great, but it'd be worth it for the Heenan/Cornette interaction.

I remember pieces of this but all together it is better looking back

The Miz is originally going to face TJP. Guest host Snoop Dogg interrupts and replaces TJP with Marty Jannetty.

Re: Mathttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIE6GeVPtMQn't Think Existed

My podcast Not Ready for Prime Time Wrestling did a show where we watched rare/unusual matches.

http://www.blogtalkradio.com/smartmarkradio/2018/03/15/not-ready-for-prime-time-wrestling-episode-22-matches-you-never-knew-existed

The matches we covered (and yes, I'm doing a cheap plug so you can listen and watch along):

I know this one was already in the thread but we felt we had to cover it.

Yes, that's Muta and fucking Goldberg as a team.

(This just happened to play following the second match, but included for completion sake)

I never knew this one happened but I'm glad I watched it.

From 1/14/1990 in AJPW. British Bulldogs vs. The Fantastics (looks like it's clipped and missing 10-12 minutes though, unfortunately)

Feeling so blessed that me and my hipster brother are going to see KING HAKU lay waste to that South Jersey Dirtbag jailbird Nick Gage! GET EM MENG!

CM Punk vs Pierre Carl Oulette!

Side note: PCO's career resurrgance on the indies recently is one of the bigger wrestling WTFs in 2018.

The only way that trio could be better is if Gillberg was bumped to have The Patriot (gimmick) reunite with old partner Buff Bagwell to have HACKSAW leading STARS AND STRIPES (tough guy)

True. I just wanted Hacksaw to put it in the rearview for one of these sick jackets

From Mexico sometime in 1992. Andre the Giant (busting out the RED singlet), Canek, and Villano III vs Bad News Allen, Kokina (Yokozuna) and...THE BLACK SCORPION! It's actually 2 Cold Scorpio under the mask, although the video's thumbnail shows a picture of Flair as the Black Scorpion from 1990. But seeing Andre and Yoko square off is pretty cool, I think

Not a match but Mean Gene interviewing Andy Warhol isn't something I thought existed.

Sgt. Slaughter wants to wrestle Nick Gage in a Boot Camp Match.

I thought Black Label Pro couldn't top Joey Janela Vs D Lo Brown but they just might...
