WCW Halloween Havoc 1989: Settling The Score (October 28, 1989)

So it was Halloween which means I wanted to watch some Halloween themed wrestling bullshit. Luckily for me the cheap as free tier of the award winning WWE Network has my back and has put up a bunch of old WCW Halloween Havoc PPV as this month’s freebies unfortunately they kept the one I really wanted to see, Halloween Havoc ‘91, behind the paywall so I decided to check on ‘89 inside because it’s one I don’t think I’d ever seen before so let’s get spooky!

WWF Royal Rumble 1989 (January 15, 1989)

My chronological journey through the Royal Rumbles continues today with the 1989 Royal Rumble. Coming to us live on January 15, 1989, this is the first Royal Rumble to feature the classic 30-Man Royal Rumble Match, so let’s get down to business!

AWA Team Challenge Series Pilot (October 23, 1989)

Some of my fondest wrestling memories are of watching late 80s AWA on ESPN with my dad (because the AWA was the preferred wrestling promotion of dads across America) so when the WWE Network added the unaired pilot for the AWA Team Challenge Series, I was all over that shit, and oh what shit it was!

FMW Battle Creation (December 10, 1989)

Time for some late 80s Japanese sleaze! Today I watched a random FMW tape. This is a review of that tape. As is often the case with Japanese wrestling tapes from the 80s and 90s a lot of these matches are clipped so I’m going to forego giving stuff ratings unless I’m pretty certain I saw the majority of the match (or if I can find the match in full on Youtube and watch it there). Let’s get it on!
