DragonKingKarl Classic Wrestling Show: Omega vs. Funk, MSG, July 1984 Observer issues
On this week’s DragonKingKarl Classic Wrestling Show, we have a ton of classic pro wrestling discussion on a variety of topics.
The latest match in my Greatest Kayfabe Tournament (GKT) is here and the voters are split on a match between Kenny Omega and Terry Funk…but we have a winner!
I also have more from the 1931 New York wrestling scene and Madison Square Garden.
In the second half of the show, I take a look at the first of three July 1984 issues of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter including the death of Vince McMahon Sr., Andy Kaufman, and Ric Flair regaining the NWA World title from Kerry Von Erich in Japan.
