    I love these bios to death my man ! Please keep doing them . These vids bring back so many memories to my childhood where I became a diehard wrestling fan . Some of these matches I search for anyway , some stuff on these vids sparks my memory like " oh yeah !! I forgot about that ! " then I track it down . Also its so awesome for people interested that didnt grow up then . Preserving wrestling history is a huge thing for me and I thank you .

      Thank you. I like doing them, but they are a lot of work. I like coming across things I never knew doing the research. Like how Eric Embry was a recurring figure through Fulton's career, even though I never really knew there was much of a connection between the two.

    These bios of these guys was very fun to learn about! I remember them from when I was younger. Some of the info you gave in the vid I had no idea about, lol. I love wrestling. I actually got to see WWE live once and AEW wrestling live. They were pretty good! We always enjoy your content, I can't wait to see what the next vid you put out is going to be!! We hope that you're doing well, and thank you for sharing this amazing vid with all of us! Have a great night!! 💥👍💥🌟

      Glad you enjoyed it! I've never seen WWE or AEW live. The WWE has had a couple of cards in Wichita Falls near me, but I've never gone. Next time they come I may try to get tickets.

    The Fantastics vs. Sheepherders was right around the time I caught the wrestling bug and watched anything and everything wrestling . Bought every wrestling mag etc... Those were great times in wrestling . Especially the tag scene . Every company had great teams . Also I was a fan of Tommy Rodgers later work in ECW ! Dude was still killing it ! The " Tomikaze " finisher Christian still uses today !

    • @AViewFromTheMiddle
      @AViewFromTheMiddle  Год назад +1

      I wish we had been able to get ECW here. I would have liked seeing Rogers, Benoit, and Guerrero when it was new.

      Tomikaze. It was a double underhook facebuster.

    best underrated wrestling tag team in my opinion. the match they had vs cornette' s midnight express is almost never talked about. they were supposed to be pushed ; in a big in WCCW but of course fritz von erich gave preference to his boys ; kevin and kerry over any other tag team. Tommy rogers gone too soon. great made video. in a big way i meant

    Luke Williams and Butch Miller were the team that The Fantastics worked with mostly. Rip and Jonathan were also Sheephearders, Kiwis.

    • @AViewFromTheMiddle
      @AViewFromTheMiddle  7 месяцев назад

      Yeah that was a mistake. I intended to mention all three as a general comment.

  • @Steve_Vendetta
    @Steve_Vendetta 10 месяцев назад

    In the early-1980s, Jonathan Boyd often teamed with *Luke Williams* as the Sheepherders, NOT with Rip Morgan, as stated. Morgan appeared later that decade as an *ally* of his fellow New Zealanders, albeit the better-known combination of Luke Williams and Butch Miller.

    • @AViewFromTheMiddle
      @AViewFromTheMiddle  10 месяцев назад

      Yeah that was intended to be a general comment about The Sheepherders, I just somehow forgot to say Luke Williams name. I probably got interrupted when writing the script.

    Have you seen the reboot of the old Calgary Stampede wrestling? It is now Dungeon Wrestling and it’s very old school style. Dungeon Wrestling is getting good crowds too.

    • @AViewFromTheMiddle
      @AViewFromTheMiddle  Год назад +2

      I have not. I heard something about Stampede Wrestling coming back but didn't know it was called Dungeon. I'll have to look that up.
