I was there that night at the Meadowlands arena aka Brendon Bryne Arena. I was 13 years old. I’ll never forget seeing Ric Flair for the first time live!
I remember this match from the meadowlands in 1984 dubbed night of champions, it was the nwa's first time in the new york/New jersey metro area in quite some time been looking for this match for years please upload the entire card much thanks.
I was 13 years old at the time. This was the first time that I saw an NWA show live. First time that I saw Ric Flair live. The memories from this show will live with me forever!
Had an uncle who went to this show and brought me back the program which I still have (probably the nicest thing he ever did for another human being as far as I can reckon). At the time I didn't understand why a group of cigar-smoking men didn't want an overly enthusiastic eleven-year-old tagging along.
"Night Of Champions" at the Meadowlands in New Jersey in 1984. Crocket's 1st time bringing the NWA Mid Atlantic stars up North. Stan Hansen, The Road Warriors, Carlos Colon were there. Hansen had a stiff match against Wahoo McDaniel for Hansen's PWF title. Dusty was there also. I was sitting 3rd row ringside. A great night!!!!
I remember that match also Steve. Animal caught Bundy with a powerslam off the ropes for the 123 and it was one of the loudest noises I ever heard in a wrestling arena!!!
Oh my this was the first time i saw ric flair and it was the beat match that ever was rick steamboat is such a great wrestler that never got justice ric and rick lit that ring up there were so may pin attempts that the crowd would rise every time thank you for bringing it here it is a fine memory and i brag about it being my favorite match thank you rick steamboat for always bringing you best and for what you did in the ring people think they know real wrestling but they do not and most of all long live rick flair wrestling would not have been as exciting with out you champ

This isn't from Night of Champions. That match was best 2 of 3 falls. And each wrestler took a fall. The third fall ended because of the time limit.The match was a draw. I was there. I wish I still had the program from that night.
i was at the Night of Champions at the Meadowlands in 1984 - THIS IS THE MATCH - it wasn't the best 2 out of 3 falls, it was a one fall match - Dusty Rhodes beat the Assassin in about a minute, Carlos Colon defeated Tully Blanchard in a bloody battle, Wahoo McDaniel wrestled Stan Hansen to a double-disqualification, The Road Warriors beat King Kong Bundy and Jimmy Valiant (Hawk pinned Bundy with a clothesline off of the top rope), Ronnie Garvin beat Jake Roberts and other matches (i forget) - i remember it rained like HELL that day ...
