TAPE 422

Quality: EX (*MASTER*)

Length: 1.5 hrs (DVD)

NWA WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING - 4/6/85 (AWESOME!  24/7 starts showing complete episodes of 
	territorial TV and THIS is what they start with!  This, of course, is the debut episode
	of JCP on TBS, kickstarting possibly the best-ever in-ring promotion in the US.  This 
	episode appears to be complete, though they make mention of Pez Whatley & Buzz Tyler
	appearing but they are nowhere to be seen.  Appears they were left off the original 
	broadcast too rather than being edited out.  The only quibbles would be the promos for 
	upcoming house shows being removed and the editing of music.  I can live with those in 
	return for PERFECT QUALITY otherwise.  I've got a DVD master, VQ is perfect.)

	Ole Anderson confronting Thunderbolt Patterson, GCW, 4/6/85 (clip)
	Ivan & Nikita Koloff vs George South & Greg Stone
	Jimmy Valiant vs Mark Hill
	Tully Blanchard vs Sam Houston
	Superstar Graham vs Rocky King (Graham has always been an instant fast-forward guy for
		me - just can't stand his work)
	Magnum TA Music video (Generic music - yuck)
	Ric Flair vs Gene Ligon
	Ole Anderson confronting Thunderbolt Patterson, GCW, 4/6/85
	Arn Anderson vs Manny Fernandez (Ole does commentary for this, screwing up and calling
		Arn his brother when they're supposed to be uncle/nephew or cousins.  Ole ends up
		attacking Fernandez, then helping Arn attack Thunderbolt as well, cementing his
		not-so-subtle heel turn.  Actually a good angle with more than a bit of reality
		mixed in.)
	Interview w/Ivan & Nikita Koloff (they challenge AWA Champions Road Warriors)
	Interview w/Ric Flair & 3 Women
	Magnum TA vs Paul Garner
	Tully Blanchard Music Video (the "Search for the Perfect 10")
	Barbarian vs Josh Stroud
	Buddy Landel vs David Dillinger (Quite possibly the worst figure-four you'll ever see
		in this one - maybe worse than the infamous Hogan one from Nitro)
	Black Bart vs Ron Rossi (the middle rope breaks while Rossi goes out to the floor and
		he takes a nasty bump as a result.  JJ Dillon is right there to give him time to
		rest by laying the boots to him - thanks JJ!)
	Jimmy Valiant Music Video (Strangely enough, this one seems to have the original music
		intact - can't confirm that though)
	Interview w/Dusty Rhodes, 3/16/85 (From the night Dusty won the NWA World TV title)
