This is some of the best wrasslin' I've ever seen. Best crowd ever. Every young wrestler needs to study Terry, especially WWE's roster. 😅😂 Terry screaming like he's been blinded for life from a fork slash is just beautiful
I liked Addullah which was odd because I liked guys who gave wrestling an aire of authenticity like Dory Funk and Harley Race . Everything they did looked real world . Not out of line with reality at all , totally in line with the narrative that these guys were out to prove that no one was a better pro wrestler than they were . Abdullah was an attraction . He was damned near implausible . He pushed the boundary . But he was so big and light on his feet and hid his cheating so masterfully that I was willing to loosen my grip on believeability momentarily . Though the Sheik was the original he was nowhere near as spectacular as a 350 lbs Judoka that used foreign objects and loved the taste of blood . It was about presentation . They were very similar but to me Abby looked the part of wildman more than the average guy looking Shiek .
The best tag team in Sports Intertainment!! Terry & Dory Funk!! Guaranteed good show!! Nobody knew back then about the dangers of hepatitis C!! Bleedings not legal today!!
Dory and Terry Funk vs Abdullah The Butcher and The Sheik over in Japan. Such good watch. The 4 will not back down from a fight. Didn't 👀 that coming. The Sheik throw 🔥 2 Abdullah the Butcher
Terry Funk's finisher at the time was the spinning toe hold, which is what you saw. Didn't try to do a figure four; Dory used the spinner also but used other holds almost as frequently.
