Step into the wrestling time machine as wrestling historian, author, actor, and wrestling manager Nikita Breznikov, and veteran pro wrestling author (Pro Wrestling Stories) and podcaster Benny “The Playa” Scala crack open one of the most electric nights in Madison Square Garden history—November 23, 1981! The guys will break down the entire card, with special emphasis on two legendary main events that defined an era:
🔥 Pedro Morales vs. Don Muraco — WWF Intercontinental Championship A heated clash for the gold, packed with pride, power, and pure intensity. Morales’ fire vs. Muraco’s swagger—who truly controlled the Garden?
🔥 Bob Backlund vs. Greg “The Hammer” Valentine — Return Match for the VACANT WWF Heavyweight Championship
A brutal, emotional rematch that had MSG shaking. Backlund’s grit vs. Valentine’s unrelenting precision—this was more than a match… it was a war for a legacy.
You'll get that true old school feel when Nikita and Benny take you back to When. It. Was. REAL.
