Kris & David are guestless this week as we discuss the week that was January 17-23, 1987. We talk about Hulk Hogan getting a trophy for being the WWF Champion for 3 years which has Andre the Giant feeling some kind of way, The Barbarian being made into the new Bruiser Brody by New Japan, Buddy Landel winning wrestlers in a card game, Randy Hales getting attacked by the Daughters of Darkness, why was Bill Watts’ UWF airing on Philadelphia TV in 1992, Dusty Rhodes’s tribute to the Seven Dwarfs, and much more. A highly entertaining show so don’t miss it!!!!
