Ep. #383: November 21-28, 1990

Kris & David are back as we talk about the week-plus that was November 21-28, 1990.

• We start the show with the World Wrestling Federation and their fourth annual Survivor Series pay-per-view show, which was a doozy, as we had the debuts of The Undertaker and THE GOBBLEDY GOOKER, as well as and the ULTIMATE SURVIVAL match, among all the news and views from that show. We also talk about the departure of Demolition Ax, Kato becoming a member of the Orient Express, and news on the future World Bodybuilding Federation.
• Next, we go international, starting with the Real World Tag League in AJPW featuring Giant Baba and Andre the Giant vs. LAND OF THE GIANTS, WWF guys coming to Super World Sports, Kamala in Mexico, and much more.
• Then we come back to the U.S. for a wild story involving Luna Vachon and her boys using a stun gun, Joe Pedicino talking to everyone as he is getting ready to start his promotion, the end of World Class in Texas right as Gary Hart brings "class" back to the Metroplex with his TCW or TWF or TWFCW or whatever it was, Chris Love running his short-lived full-time UCW territory in Kansas, and all sorts of other wackiness.
• We close with the NWA, featuring Ole Anderson being fired as the booker as Dusty Rhodes looms in the shadows, along with other office news and notes. We also have Michael Wallstreet handling some business, Ole Anderson's swan song as the Black Scorpion on TV, and more WCW EVERYBODY moments as always.

It’s lways a fun show when we do this era, and this is no different, so take a listen!!
