Now that Pedro Morales had his fun with the WWWF title, Bruno looks to get his belt back against that dirty Canadian Heart Puncher himself - Stan Stasiak.
Thank you not only for posting this, but for having this. A couple of things first, could and would you please change the year of this event on the title page to the correct 1973. Second, it really amazes me that the wwe with its vast library of historic matches does NOT have footage of this match (or the match of Stasiak defeating Morales.. On other youtube pages, I have seen matches from Japan from 1967 that were so great in quality. Why doesn't the wwe have these matches on video?
That year is wrong. Bruno regained the title in December of 1973. Stasiak held the title for 10 days after winning it from Pedro Morales. Stan "The Man" was picked to hold on to the belt as a transitional champ as the WWWF (Vince McMahon) wanted Bruno to get the belt back to boost ticket sales. Stan's finest moment.
This is confusing , that match was on 12-10-1973 , that when bruno sammartino became wwf world champion for the second time , on the clip footage say 1977 , bruno was already the champion in 1977 , until superstar billy graham beat him , but cheated on 4-30-77 , can anyone explain , thank 😮
Wow. This is so incorrect. Stan win the title from Pedro on dec. 1st 1973 he than lost it dec.10 th 1973 to Bruno😊 who held it until april 30th 1977.hope this helped.
this is remastered with voice over..it was on 12/10/73...great footage though, except the missing ending..stasiak whipped bruno into the ropes and kneed him in the stomach, he picked bruno up and tried the same move twice and was met with a flying body press..that is how it went down.
Even though the match is incomplete.....there's still footage of it. To this day Morales vs Stasiak is the only WWWF/WWE title change to never be recorded
BRUNO definitely had his own unique style, But iT wasn’t AB Flash in 60s/70s. HE was so credible & believable to the WWF Audience that it transcended into him being OVER. PERIOD.
No HD/4K, no social media scrutiny in rt, or afterward. The psychology of what they presented and kayfabe so strong at the time, that people believed what they seeing. The wrestling is so much better now, but they were able to sell the story so much better back then
@@rugger104 The wrestling is so much better now are you kidding me wrestling now is so choreographed they actually wait and move into place for a move to happen. Back then wrestling was called in the ring. The 70s and NWA 80s was the greatest time in wrestling prove me wrong I’m waiting
