Between The Sheets

Miscellaneous


Kris & David are joined by one of our Patrons, Tyler Gignac (@Tyler_Gignac), to discuss the week-plus that was March 8th-16th, 1987, which he picked as the week after upping his Patreon pledge to $50 for a month. We talk about Kris' favorite episode of Saturday Night's Main Event, the 3/14/87 episode that was also the focus of Tyler’s request. We also talk about the build for WrestleMania III, both in general and on that NBC special, as well as the pre-Mania house shows and Hulk Hogan being the guest on one of the final installments of Piper's Pit. After Tyler departs following the WWF section, we talk about all of the news and results in Japan, Canada, & Puerto Rico before going back to the United States for the territories where we play an Adrian Street video from Continental, Jerry Lawler brings out Sawyer Brown on Memphis TV, a new member of the First Family in the UWF, plus in JCP we talk about Ole Anderson feuding with Big Bubba Rogers and Lex Luger officially becoming a Horseman.
