    We're missing almost a month of TV and househows because life sucks, but once the 80's hit, it won't be a problem ever again. Also, turns out the Valiant's won the title a few weeks ago and i didn't realise it. My bad. WWWWF WORLD CHAMPION: BOB BACKLUND- Since 20/2/78 WWWWF WORLD TAG TEAM...

    Antonio Inoki vs Nikolai Volkoff (17/4/79) I can't possibly skip something THIS insane. The Jaw vs a Commie is true pro wrestling. Not bad at all, shockingly. They fight on the mat and the big Russian holds his own and throws some great shots to stumble Inoki and really give him a fight. He...

    Larry Zybszko w/Tony Garea vs Ivan Koloff w/Capt Lou Albano (27/1/79-Championship Wrestling) Larry fights for his dad's honor! Truly the best wrestling son this side of Eddie Gilbert, or Terry Funk. Like his partner did a few weeks ago, Larry carries him to a good match, but nothing beyond that...

    Once again this will be done off the Network and XWT. All-Star is missing a ton of episodes, but we've got enough of that and everything to have the most complete year yet. Also, I'm making sure i don't fuck up any dates this time, which will help when we get to the famed Intercontinental...

    WRESTLER OF THE YEAR This was a much tighter contest than WOTY, because of awesome dudes like Spiros, Stan, Tony, Larry, Crusher and the Jacks all making a serious case for the title. But in the end, one man stood above them all, a man who smiled his way into our hearts and will probably kill...

    TAG TEAM OF THE YEAR This is like AMW in TNA, or Dem Boys in ROH, where there's no other way this can go, because they are the way. THE YUKON LUMBERJACK-19 POINTS.
