@@litehouse6 Yes, I remember that match. Gene was on the apron in the corner to the upper left side of the ring. He called for Ole to run Wahoo's head into his own, which knocked out both men and allowed Ole to pin Wahoo and regain the belts.
In 1979, a new pro wrestling publication hit newsstands and magazine racks across the nation. It was Pro Wrestling Illustrated. When the first issue went to press, Paul Jones was ranked at #3 in the Most Hated Wrestler category. He and Baron Von Raschke were ranked at #2 in the Tag Team Division. The Masked Superstar (Bill Eadie) was ranked at #6 in the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) and at #5 in the Most Hated Wrestler category.
the superstar was my second fav masked wrestler only behind the spoiler....now that would be a dream match the spoiler vs the superstar that would have been an earth shaker
@@erniebillings29 if you go to my channel you can see that night is October 77 and unfortunately my father stopped at videotaping right as Paul was bending over to grab the scissors and a superstar kicked him in the head. I have some of Paul Jones's hair and I've had it since that night. Yes and Paul was so vain he wouldn't come to the studio with his hair chopped up like that that he went and got it cut by a barber
Masked Superstar was and is still my favorite wrestler of all time but Black Jack Mulligan did pull his mask off as well because I remember I was upset when he pulled it off, lol. I was a young kid back in those days!
Listen to that crowd.
mk162 great history dude I still have old wrestling magazine's
Paul and Malenko had a Classic match themselves in their primes!
After oct 7 of 77 because Jones hair is real short here and superstar cut it Oct 7 of 77
Boris malenko isnt he ralated to dean malenko of the wcw era
The art of “ selling” your opponents moves and making the crowd “ believe” .
Superstar and Jones also held the NWA world tag belts together.
didnt paul jones also hold the tag belts with sonny king.
@@jameslott4606 and Wahoo McDaniels
And also with Ricky Steamboat.
@@normancasey4217 He and wahoo held them briefly. They lost them back to the Andersons in the "Supreme Sacrifice" match.

Can you believe they billed that behemoth at 265 lbs ?
2 of the greats. Either would have made a great world Champion.

Only a few years before, Paul was the #1 fan favorite
Would live to have seen a heel version of their tag team . Especially in Atlanta.
I love there is no DAMN announcers voice.

This is after they cut Paul’s hair.
Actually, Paul cut his own hair and ruined the angle.

I remember this angle. 'They cut' Paul Jones hair and turned this into a feud between Superstar and Paul Jones. This was big news back in the day.
correct me if I am wrong, but isn't Jones the only 1 to demask the Superstar?

Mr Wrestling 2 did as well . And once , he unmasked himself .
