God I miss watching this & listening to Gordon Solie....great memories
Indeed. This is what I grew up on as a kid.
Solie was extremely overrated. Listening to him was a cure for insomnia.
We watched it on The Super Station on cable here in Texas back in the day.
@@user-nx8pe6pc3h Yep..every Saturday at 6:05. Didn't miss it.
The Free Birds were the bad guys in Texas. It was all about the Von Erichs here in Texas.
Man this was good stuff, I watched Georgia Championship Wrestling 6:05PM every Saturday when we got cable.
I remember they were always on the :05
I remember these days also when Wrestling was good WTBS Superstation Atlanta
@@stephanpayne8162 , Yes agreed and I hated when Atlanta Braves Baseball would have to have extra innings or be delayed because of rain 🌧️ or something and force wrestling to be delayed. Sometimes baseball would be on up and past 7:05, I would be like ugh get this stupid game over with I wanna see wrestling. LoL
@@connerhuston2613 They wrestled every 2 weeks in the Omni in Atlanta,The only wrestling at that time that was better was our local wrestling....
I would give $100.00 to hear Gordon call a “Pier Six” brawl one more time...live, of course. WWE can’t begin to replicate this excitement.
Not even close, this is outstanding
WWE SUCKS!
😃👏👏 now those were the GOOD old Wrestling days...loved it back then, I wanted my uncle to take me every Wednesday they were in Columbus Georgia..lol miss those days..👏👏👍
Growing up in Southern Ohio,went to quite a few of those matches in Huntington West Virginia. My dad would take me and my friends. Damn good times
I loved this stuff still lmao
First they were heels. Then Hayes became face, feuded with Gordy, then Gordy turned. They went to Texas as faces, and then the Kerry Von Erich vs. Ric Flair cage match in December, 1982 turned them heel for a while. Arguably their peak.
Freebirds von Erich feud was great.
One of the best feuds ever.
Man I miss this shit, this is how you get fans excited, there's only like 100 people there and it's louder then anything you hear today.
Back when wrestling was good and believable. Kayfabe in high gear. Awesome
Damn! Those dudes are whipping each others ass! No wonder people thought this shit was real in the 70 and 80s. It basically was! Those boys threw DOWN!
It is Vince McMahon juniors fault.He went around buying people up. And he wanted to make cartoon characters out of them.In regards to goofy names and goofy gimmicks.Vince junior was about entertainment. And he would scold you if you wanted to make it more about wrestling.Vince wanted the soap opera!He frowned upon the people that wanted that more realistic look!What a damn shame I really feel sorry for the kids and young adults of today because a lot of them may think that there was only one wrestling king.When indeed there were a good number of territories back in the day.There was more variety. And more bragging rights.For example say you are from TennesseeAnd you have first cousins in say Minnesota.You all get together for Thanksgiving in Tennessee.The year is 1980.So the Tennessee cousins and Minnesota cousins are going to have a squabble in regards of which wrestlers are best amongst there wrestling promotions. I actually experienced that in real life back in the day.
Pier 6 must have been a bad place to be.
Guys from Parts Unknown avoided Pier 6
Wow this is really great old wrestling would love to see the weekly episodes of Georgie wrestling 82 and some stuff from the late 70s to
I miss the old NWA !! I miss the wrestling I grew up watching!!
Rip Terry bam bam Gordy and jack robert
God this is great. Such memories. Solie gave wrestling legitimacy
1 minute of this brawl is better then all of wrestling in past 10 years
Terry Gordy was the man
The Fabulous Free Birds and Tommy Rich. What great memories. Back before Vince turned it into a circus.
A Pier Sixer going on here!!!
I loved going to the events when I lived in Columbus ga
Crazy Time Gordon!
WWE PROMOS,SUX,,,THIS IS HOW YOU SELL TICKETS,,,BEST PROMOS NWA,,
Totally agree with you Joe. I have seen some comments from other wrestling promo’s.I noticed a few groups that feel the AWA wrestlers were the best.Some of it had to do with the fact that Verne Gagne trained a lot of of the AWA people. And others felt hey my person trained me up very well. And they will tell you that Gagne had no influence.However as far as wrestling goes as a whole Verne was spectacular.He was in the 1948 world Olympics! And there was a time way back in the day that he and Lou Thez.where the two top dogs for big time wrestling!
Tommy is going to bring his belt, I bet the 12 year olds were terrified.
Bradstreet USA bam bam for you brother
That was a real pier sixer, a melee, total bedlam!
Dick slater & Stan Hansen would have been a brutal tag team!
This is the real deal back in the day. I used to get excited each and every Saturday night at 6:05 pm. TBS THE SUPERSTATION IS THE SCENE ON 17...JP
Wait a minute, Buzz Sawyer's charged the ring, Scrappy McGowan trying to restore order. We've got a pier sixer going. Wonder if I watched this at grandpa and grandma's.
Stan and Bam Bam would have been great match
God I LOVE the Freebirds!!!
When Wrestling was so good
Crazy time Gordon
The Freebirds were good guys...?
Hayes turned face , feuding with Gordy in Georgia and Southeastern. Long story short, they reunited in Southeastern and Gordy returned to Georgia to help Hayes in his feud with Buzz Sawyer. I was like 11 when this happened and I still remember Hayes referring to Gordy as Baby Huey lol
The FreeBirds were always good in my book. No make that Great!
How could anyone not like them once you heard that entrance music.
Even in Texas, the Freebirds were always cheered except against the Von Erichs
Freebirds were so cool in the 80s.
Hayes was a great heel talker.
🌚🌚🌚
Growing up in Ohio, it was so frustrating seeing all these “At the Omni!” ads. Every storyline seemed to conclude at these shows and then they seemed to do a poor job addressing what happened afterwards in the studio show, if at all.
When wrestling was worth watching
I remember Bob Backlund saying that Tommy Rich and Buzz Sawyer had a bar fight in Columbus Ohio, I believe (it was in Ohio) and Tommy won.
July 1982
When Pro Wrestling was great!!!
Where was Buddy Roberts?
Only in pro wrestling could a Canadian Buddy Roberts aka Dale Hey be a good ole Southern boy lol! 😂
Roberts didn't become a full-time Freebird until they went to Dallas
He died back in 2012
WWF had sports entertainment Georgia had resslen
Badstreet Atlanta ga
Stan Hansen is a sexy handsome gentleman.
I love him.
Wrestling Isn't Like This Anymore
Should be more u no
Back when real men were wrestler's not the Male Cheerleaders we got today
😳If you ask me, I bet you that the Greatest Wrestler of all Times and the Most Dangerous Wrestler of all Times!
😳 Would have given anyone of these Wrestlers a Ass Kicking of their Life they would never forget!
😳 I'm talking about!
Dr David Schultz!
You got something to say?
Yeah he might have to pack a lunch to deal with Hanson and Sawyer
@@chrischar9428 😳 You trying to tell me that Dr David Schultz would have a problem taking on those Wrestlers?
😳 Dr David Schultz never got the opportunity that others did! It was political
and other social factors!
Most Wrestlers were just Chicken to take him on!
😳 Look how most Wrestlers Ended Up!
Look how successful
😳 Dr David Schultz Ended Up! Successful!
Bruiser Brody would have used them for toothpick.
@@mitchellbrown7106 😳 You don't think Buiser Brody, Would take on the Greatest Wrestler of all Times and the Most Dangerous Wrestler of all Times, I'm talking about!
😳 Dr David Schultz!
Do you know him?
I remember him. He was one of the best heels in the business.
Even as a child I never understood the hype behind this horribly fake sport.
And yet here you are...
If you "get it" , its great. If you don't, don't watch it.
It was more interesting than any real sport at the time . It was meant to make fun of real sports.
Professional wrestling was around since the time of carnival barkers and bear wrestling. The goofy crap seen on WWE now is what most people make fun of (with the exception of NXT). It wasn't made to make fun, it was an alternative to other sports.
Ok then why are you watching it?
