On this week’s episode of The Pro Wrasslin’ Reflection
Podcast episode 23… We review the WWF Supertape Vol. 1 (1990)!
"Mr. Gimmick” Travis Veoltz and Tommy Wonder relive this classic WWF (WORLD WRESTLING FEDERATION) Event!
Event information:
The first Coliseum Videos were a best of series… WWF released PPV's on VHS tapes but the evolution of the “Best of the WWF” series would be the SuperTape series. By the time this set of tapes were being released, the Coliseum Video format was starting to make a progressive change. While a lot of the early releases were mostly matches pulled from local arenas and recycling stuff from Tuesday Night Titans, by the 90's, there seemed to be more and more focus on "Coliseum Exclusives",
The Supertape series basically replaced the "Best of the WWF" series, which ran for 20 sets! Some may say the "Best of the WWF" featured some of the most-average matches they had to offer, but it would be unfair to say that most of the time. Each tape featured at least something memorable.... Up until we got to around Vol. 14, then it was just another series.
- As expected, Sean Mooney is our host, but he's just hanging by in the Coliseum Video studio for this one. We're going to see a WWF Profile on non-other than the Bushwhackers, hosted by Mean Gene Okerlund! Bobby "The Brain" Heenan is in the Managers Profile, and Lord Alfred Hayes will be standing by with his Call of the Action, but first... Our fan favorite match, picked at "random" at the suggestion of "WWF fans."
