Saturday Scissor Series
Today's montage of Headscissors comes from a single episode of World Class Championship Wrasslin which first aired 40 years ago on March 10, 1984 and was recently posted to YouTube.
It was a great episode for Headscissors -- the sort of show where you had to keep hitting Record on the old VCR as stud after stud made his way to the ring and got down to Scissoring.
First, we see Mike Bond getting kinky as he yanks up Chick Donovan's trunks to expose his muscularity. Do you think for one second that Donovan is going to fix that wayward spandex and readjust the fit?? Hell no, he is proud of all those squats he's been doing in the gym.
In the next match, Chris Adams puts his bulging whitey-tighties on display in a couple of nice Headscissors. I had a crush on the "Gentleman" throughout his career, so seeing him squirming around to escape those tight Scissors brought back some very fond memories.
Finally, we get a Scissor lesson by the big man, Butch Reed (who is described by a rather enamored Mark Lowrance as "chiseled ebony".) Butch adds some colorful trash talk to his crushing Headscissor, threatening to "squeeze his brains out!"
All those great Scissor moments on one program -- it feels like finally winning at Keno! I wonder if the promoters paid the boys a bonus per Headscissor or something (knowing how much the viewers would get off on it), because there sure were some eye-catching Scissor scenes throughout the broadcast.

The Royal Rumble Marathon: 1988
I’ve been re-watching the Royal Rumble, starting with the first one in 1988. Only the Rumble itself.  Let’s begin the marathon:
Warning, spoilers ahead for the past Royal Rumbles…
1988
I remember reading there was a Rumble before the first televised one in 1988. The 1988 Royal Rumble is the one that introduced the concept to the world at large. Battle royals had been used in wrestling for decades, but the Rumble introduced the concept of starting with two men and adding more in various intervals.
The Rumble in 1988 was still in prototype mode, missing many of the staples of later Rumbles:
No participants had entrance music.
Fans weren’t counting down for the next participant.
Managers were allowed at ringside.
No comedy spots.
No rapid eliminations.
No surprise entrants.
No big man going on a rampage, causing multiple eliminations.
No tag team fighting each other.
No “winner goes to Wrestlemania”.
No storyline to the Rumble.
The 1988 Rumble only had 20 participants as opposed to the traditional 30.
The participants, in order of entrance:
Bret Hart (accompanied by Jimmy Hart), ½ of the Hart Foundation
Tito Santana
“The Natural” Butch Reed
Jim Neidhart, ½ of the Hart Foundation
5) Jake Roberts
Harley Race
Jim Brunzell, ½ of the Killer Bees
Sam Houston
Danny Davis
Boris Zhukov, ½ of the Bolsheviks
Don “The Rock” Muraco
Nikolai Volkoff, ½ of the Bolsheviks
“Hacksaw” Jim Duggan
“The Outlaw” Ron Bass
B. Brian Blair, ½ of the Killer Bees
Hillbilly Jim
Dino Bravo (accompanied by Frenchy Martin)
Ultimate Warrior
One Man Gang
Junkyard Dog
Bret had the longest performance in the Rumble. Not many highlights in the Rumble as the “tropes” weren’t in place yet. Bret and Tito were my favorites to watch as they are my preferred type of wrestler. Butch Reed and One Man Gang are interesting as they would be in much different spots in the next year. Butch Reed would leave for WCW and form the “Doom” tag team with Ron Simmons. One Man Gang would turn into Akeem the African Dream and form the Twin Towers with the Big Bossman.
Jake Roberts, Jim Duggan, the Ultimate Warrior, and Junkyard Dog received the biggest reactions from the crowd.
Jim Duggan wins the Rumble.
Of the twenty participants, eight have passed away: Butch Reed, Harley Race, Nikolai Volkoff, Ron Bass, Dino Bravo, the Ultimate Warrior, and the Junkyard Dog. If you include non-wrestling participants, the total is eleven: Howard Finkel (the ring announcer) and Joey Marella (the outside referee).
Overall Rating: 4 out of 10
