Saturday Night’s Main Event #23 (10.89)
WWF Saturday Night’s Main Event #23
October 14, 1989
Cincinnati, OH
Riverfront Coliseum
(taped on 9/21/1989)
The current WWF Champs were as follows:
World Champion: Hulk Hogan (4/2/1989)
Intercontinental Champion: Ultimate Warrior (8/28/1989)
World Tag Team Champions: The Brain Busters (7/18/1989)
Women’s Champion: Rockin’ Robin (10/7/1988)
Tonight, Roddy Piper has to deal with *HAKU* tonight. Bless me. But first, Randy Savage plans to be a royal pain in Jimmy Snuka’s behind. OOO YEAH! Somebody call my momma, the Bushwhackers are here! Oh, and can’t forget about this next one. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, Ted DiBiase and Zeus are together. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! And finally, Hulk says all of DiBiase’s money can’t buy him the WWF title. Umm, somebody roll the tape from I believe the date was February 5, 1988 in Hogan’s life. His memory not so good. This is all so confusing, so it must be time for Saturday Night’s Main Event!
Your hosts are Vince McMahon and Jesse “The Male Cleopatra” Ventura. Read the rest of this entry
Saturday Night’s Main Event #7 (10.86)
WWF Saturday Night’s Main Event #7
October 4, 1986
Richfield, OH
Richfield Coliseum
(Taped on 9/13/1986)
The current WWF Champs were as follows:
World Champion: Hulk Hogan (1/23/1984)
Intercontinental Champion: Randy Savage (2/8/1986)
World Tag Team Champions: The British Bulldogs (4/7/1986)
Women’s Champion: The Fabulous Moolah (7/9/1986)
Tonight, does Jake Roberts and Damien really take showers together? Only they know for sure. Plus, the Dream Team look to send the Bulldogs to the dog pound and take back their tag team belts. Can you really send people to the dog pound merely because a nickname? With that logic, you could say lighting Dynamite Kid on fire would cause him to eventually explode! And later on, Kamala makes his return to the WWF! It seems he’s already in talks with the Dungeon of Doom nine years ahead of time. Must be a hard club to get into! But first, Benedict Orndorff calls Hogan a crybaby. OH NO HE DIDN’T! Yes he did. It’s time for Saturday Night’s Main Event!
Your hosts are Vince McMahon & Jesse “The Buckwheat” Ventura. Read the rest of this entry

JR and Heenan are both wearing togas to complete the ‘Roman empire’ theme for the night. Macho wears his usual extravagant ‘Macho Man’ attire, but only a tad more gay with the purple and gold. Hey wait a minute, those are WCW colors! Read the rest of this entry

AND WE’RE BACK! Man, this is the first WWF show I’ve watched since I reviewed SNME #29 back in early June. Since then, as most of you might know, I’ve been checking out six months of WCW Worldwides, which has been a great time. Sorry for those of you who were looking forward to SummerSlam ’91 and the Royal Rumble ’92, I just don’t have those shows yet. Maybe some day, because I would really love to review them. Anyways, let’s get started.
This is the first SNME airing from FOX, so we get a new logo and a new style added to the intro.
Your hosts are Vince McMahon and Bobby Heenan! Read the rest of this entry
WrestleFest 1991
WWF WrestleFest ’91
There’s nothing like a good ol’ 2 hour WWF Coliseum Home Video. For me, it’s like stepping back into your childhood when wrestling was much more enjoyable. Your host for this one is the “Man of Leisure” Macho Man Randy Savage! When this video was released, it would be four months after losing a retirement match to the Warrior at WrestleMania and regaining the love of his life, the late Miss Elizabeth who would soon become Mrs. Elizabeth at the following SummerSlam. They cut to Savage taking a nap by the pool IN HIS WRESTLING GEAR having a possible recurring flashback of the final moments of his WrestleMania match. He awakes and starts talking to the camera like he didn’t know they had been there all along and begins to go insane immediately by sharing with us that he’s disappointed that he didn’t get to wrestle the Macho Man during his great career. Blah, blah, blah. Alright, let’s get on with this, Randy!
