NY News Clips: 1985 WWE Pre SNME, AWA Verne Gagne 'Exposed' (Part 1)
A week before the first ever WWF Saturday Night's Main Event on NBC back in 1985, various NY news programs (and Entertainment Tonight) did segments on pro wrestling. Luckily for me, I taped most of them :) This clip is the first of many I'll be uploading. <br /> <br />This one includes the incident where Hulk Hogan cracked open comedian Richard Belzer's head during a TV show appearance. This also includes the very embarassing segment involving Verne Gagne (which Ive talked about many times on our show). I really felt bad for him then when this aired. When you realize that the AWA was on its way out then, this probably felt like rubbing salt on a wound for Verne Gagne. <br /> <br />The clip? Channel 9 news in NY news plays part of a match between Larry Zbyszko vs Bob Backlund. You can clearly hear Zbyszko talking to Backlund about their nex move. Verne Gagne is confronted about it; and millions ended up seeing this. Luckily for me, I taped it :) Enjoy everyone, and leave feedback! <br /> <br />PS: I almost forgot. For those that are aware of Phil Mushnick (NY Post) and his obsession with wanting to shut down WWE, he was doing this back in 1985 too. Yep; over 25 years this guy's been at it against Titan Towers.<br />...<br /><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-6OdotH_4Q" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-6OdotH_4Q</a>
