Na, Luger was a much better choice than Zbyszko. Larry was too similar to Tully, they both would have overshadowed one another. Luger brought muscles, brought esthetic, brought natural athleticism (as a former football player at 19) to the group and he looked like he could legit take care of a Nikita or the Road Warriors. Lex was a great fit.

During this time period, the AWA and NWA had an uneasy alliance and cooperative agreement, in an attempt to restrict the momentum of the WWF. They were promoting joint cards around this time in the NY metropolitan era. This arraignment fell apart not too long after this taping, over a disagreement on gate receipts for a joint Chicago show.

I was fortunate enough to workout at a gym in Atlanta that many of the wrestlers used back in the late 70's. Worked out with a young Ric Flair a time or two. I enjoyed wrestling but had been privy to the carny aspect of the business before my teen years. Many are to young to remember the days when there were only 3 TV networks. With the explosion in the early 80's of telecommunications it was inevitable that some promoter would try and move from just having a territory to wanting the entire country. In order for that to happen wrestling had to appeal to a wider audience and for that to occur, kayfabe had to die. Not saying it was right, but it was inevitable.

Yeah, since I posted that I've learned that there was a short-lived wrestling company called Pro Wrestling USA which combined NWA and AWA wrestlers, it ran for about 2 years in the mid 80's(1984/1985). The wrestlers on here must've been promoting that show I'm not surprised that PW-USA folded shortly after this taping. AWA and NWA were 2 of the 3 main wrestling organizations during this time, there is no way they could've co-existed for that long, there were just too many huge egos involved!!
