I was there that night. The air was electricity and it was packed wall to wall. With Sandman also returning, it was such an awesome night of wrestling. It was pure nostalgia. RIP Terry, I am grateful I got to be there.
I’m watching the beyond the mat documentary for the 1000th time and I was curious to see when terrys last match was since his career was at risk in 1998-99 and it’s crazy that he was still wrestling up until 2017
They are doing what they love and this is actually a damn good turnout for a small indie promotion. Terry doesn't NEED to do this, but he love's it. His wife has had a really difficult time getting him to stop wrestling for YEAR'S now. I get what you mean though, Terry is far too old now to go through something like this for a little bit of chump change. Sandman on the other hand, he DOES need to do this for the money...that is a far sadder story.
@@Remmy0930 i heard Sandman say he always owned a fairly successful construction or cement business on the side and didn't really need to wrestle for money. It could be BS he made up, I believe he said it in one of his shoot interviews. But idk for sure
Most of this crowd is far too young to have even watched ECW and Sandman in his prime lol. The joy's of the WWE Network...that network alone has single handedly revived alot of guy's careers. Kid's that weren't around during the greatest era of wrestling are now exposed to what REAL pop's were all about and what it was like to watch TRUE legends of the business perform.
I guess Terry's knees did continue to get worse. He didn't look able to hardly get in and out of the ring. Always one of my favorites. I'm glad he is still able to relive his glory days in the ring.
I think even Dory Jr still does some spot shows at least he was until a few years ago. However, thankfully, I don’t believe ever did the hardcore thing.
Why is everybody surprised that's the mindset someone has when u really love something you'll do w.e it takes to keep going old is when u can't no more he still kept going
I was at this show. This was my second time at a PCW show. Wasn't War Beasts' valet picked up for a wwe developmental deal? Sorry her name escapes me right now.
@@scottnewman2082 I could be mistaken, but I believe this is the PCW Demonized event from October 6, 2017. This is when PCW was going by Pacific Coast Wrestling before the changed the promotions name to just PCW Ultra.

Terry Funk is simply too aged to get into the ring. His best days are well behind him but it's worth noting that, even at 76, Funk could still slug it out with guys that are less than half his age. Compare that to his old nemesis, the late Harley Race, who was confined in a wheelchair until he passed away a year ago at the same age Terry Funk is now.
Brody King need to stop disrespecting the late great Bruiser Brody Who was the greatest ever big man in the ring great Mike Skillz superb ring ability no big man to this day can match his skills young fans who don't know about Bruiser Brody Google him it was a tragic loss we fans got deprived of a great talent the tragic loss of Bruiser Brody is a black eye to pro wrestling to this day
Hate for people to think I was being disrespectful but this shouldn’t be happening. Across the board this needs to stop. Ric flair same situation. Both could do a piece on a show without mock physicality. It’s hard to watch. I think 50 needs to become the upper limit for physical contact. Please take this down terry was a great man a revolutionary performer and this is heartbreaking to watch. Let wrestlers keep their dignity
There is just madness, no real wrestling. The guys on the mic sound like it's just forced, no passion in their words. Guys just make a mess of each other.
I used to b a smoker... why is they guy smoking? To be tough? LoL... sorry never a ecw fan or fan of The Smellman (old smelly sand man).. dumb instead of chanting wrestler they chant promotion name.. sandman not believable. Looks like guy outside 7-11 looking for work as a janitor a respectable job instead of some smelly hardcore guy..

What did they say when cameras went off?
This was Terry Funk last match in Wrestling Pro
On August 2023, he had pass away.
This was 2017. Funk was 73 here, 20 year prior winning the ECW World title at its very first ppv.
WOW. Did you go to the Show ?
Thank you. I was wondering the timeline. Unbelievable. 🤯
Rest In Peace, Terry Funk.
Sandman looks like he switched from beer to meth!🤣

1:12 poor dude left hanging. Don't take it personal man. Sandman is on another planet right now.
The guy slapped his ass instead. I guess that counts.
He poured beer in his mouth right before.
Thank you for helping Masada and Sandman, Terry! R.I.P!
R.I.P Terry your style of wrestling will never be forgotten
Breaks my heart to watch this. 😢

WWE Network didn't revive anyone except Vince's bank account.

He's in a nursing home now sad to say.
This looks like a fun night out!
Thank you for this video. Great
Always enjoyed the Sandman. The blankness and vacant look. Classic
It's real
That is one of many matches I have seen Terry funk at his best one of the greatest
I really believe that Terry Funk was and still is the most respected wrestler in history.
my favorite part of this whole match was 1:12
Now this is known as Terry Funk's last match RIP Funkster
Haha, the fat guy was attempting to high five the Sandman, but Sandman left him hanging.
Terry really pushed through dementia and all to get this fight going .........really have to appreciate this match
Awesome match . A straight up bloodbath . Just the way i like my wrestling . Violent and bloody .
Would anyone be shocked if I said sandman was drunk when I met him?
No that’s average sandman
Man, what a career. RIP Funker.
fantastic. Terry Funk for life. immortal sum' b*tch!
Kevin Sullivan’s the man
Funk still blading himself......love him!!!!
Terry Funk is fighting anyone who gets close 😂😂😂
when was this?
2017
What's up with the HUGE white head on sandman's back...... HAS NO ONE TOLD HIM ABOUT IT??!!!
R.I.P. Terry
I think even Dory Jr still does some spot shows at least he was until a few years ago. However, thankfully, I don’t believe ever did the hardcore thing.
There are matches with the funk brothers brawling with the sheik and abdullah the butcher.
Man is still in the ring at 73?? Insane

Yeah Karleena Gore had a tryout. Not sure what happened with it
You think sandman has got five years left in him...he looks about 170lbs soaking wet.
Tbh, I keep thinking Sandman has passed already only to be reminded "Nah, he is still alive, looking for Godzilla".
There's always one more time
Funk has still got it ..

sandman remid me of the wreslter movie
When did thos event take place?
@Guitar Hell thanks man
Is that mike sempervive on the mic???
0:49 you're welcome 👀
How much could they possibly pay these guys based on the size of the crowd ?
They had over 1000 in that place
Trey funk has had like 40 last matches
WOW!!!
Can't stop the hands of time unfortunately 😪
where and when did this happen Masada is the man. I wonder if Blood Hunter would fight him.
Is this recent??
Yes
@@TheHannibalTV kinda sad actually
Still better than Ric Flair’s last match , but not by much. Elder abuse seems to be popular in America these days
Is this recent?
Why is Terry funk still doing this?
Passion
@@TheHannibalTV heard he's broke.
@@scarystories190 doubt it he sold his ranch for a good sum and gets good insurance thru sag bro. good with a buck
It’s in him
Cool 😀
how can anybody be as drunk as sandman...poor old terry funk.....this is just plain sad.
Where does this PCW ULTRA take place
from ? DiD YOU Guys survive the pandemic?
Long Beach and they haven't restarted back yet but hopefully they will

The Sandman never appeared to me to have championship caliber to me just saying.
Cool thanks for sharing 👍
He never had the makings of a varsity athlete
He was awesome at one time...he's just old as dirt now.
Why?
I think the only way terry funk will retire when he's dead in the ring
Think he's pretty much done now dementia issues
@@TheHannibalTV oh i did not know that
RIP Terry Funk
Actually Sandman looks like he did in the 90's. Drugs CAN work wonders
@@skurgeI like Keith Richards
This is sad.
Looks like they had fun
Completely Dead!!
Breaks Sandmans back to do this. Dye ur hair brother
What a sad mess
Is this AEW? 🤣
Who is the hot girl kicking Sandman?
Did Heyman book this stuff?
WTF....
I think Sullivan booked it.
This isn't wrestling, its just sad to see
The word icon and sandman should never be used in the same breath.
This is beyond sad.

he can beat yo ass in real life though
