The work here was absolutely ahead of its time. You can see some traces of the modern style here. Stampede Wrestling doesn’t get enough credit for introducing the fast paced junior style to North America. It’s a reason why so many New Japan young lions did their excursions in Calgary.
Thanks a lot for uploading this precious match. Dynamite unfortunatelly shortened his life by himself and Fujinami still entertains at age of nearly 70. ところで古舘さん、小鉄さん、桜井さんは新日＆テレ朝御一行と中華料理ですかね？
These matches explain better than words why Pro Wrestling isn't interesting anymore. They've taken the wrestling out of it. Dynamite kid looks like he might just barely be starting his PED abuse.
Dynamite has the IT factor here so much it's not even funny. It's bleeding off him moreso than any other talent I have ever seen. Absolutely amazing match. A million trillion billion stars.
@chuckbuskee all of his early training was done in England with either Ted Betley( working pro wrestling) or with Jack Fallon (shoot lancashire catch as catch can wrestling) He'd been wrestling several years professionally before Bruce Hart convinced him to come to Canada The Hart's had nothing to do with his early training whatsoever
@chuckbuskee no e of what you wrote has anything to do with what I wrote I already know Dynamite's back ground When he came to Canada he changed and influenced stampede wrestling (and later in the 80s I founded all of pro wrestling) not the other way around You're misplaced nationalist fantasies are just that Pure fantasy
This is obviously Stampede Wrestling, but was Fujinami the “WWF Junior Heavyweight Champion” at this time? If so, I didn’t know WWF sent champions out to other territories like this. I’m just trying to make sense of the video title.
WWF at that time didn't. The Junior Heavyweight Championship was one of those championships that was almost forgotten by WWF. Only until WWF decided to combat WCW and their crusierweights did they remember about their forgotten championship and asked for it to be returned to create the Light Heavyweight Championship.
@@CharlesStubbs You got it wrong. The WWF junior title was around since 1965, it was vacated in 1972 an revived in 1978 and was mostly defended in Japan and once in a while in MSG, since the WWF had working agreement with NJPW until 1985. The WWF Junior title was defunct when NJPW and WWF stopped their working agreement in 1985. The WWF light heavyweight title is a completely different title. This title was created in in 1981 and was defended in the UWA in Mexico since the WWF and UWA had a working agreement. When the UWA folded, the title traveled to Michinoku Pro and eventually ended up in NJPW. The title became part of the J-Crown and eventually WWF got wind of this and made NJPW return the title. WWF created their "new" lightweight division and held a tournament to crown the new champion, but they didn't recognized the title's past history.
the WWF, probably actually WWWF at this point, junior heavyweight championship was almost exclusively defended in New Japan (it was defended in the fed a bit), so in reallity its more NJPW sending out their champion.
The Brits had several great middle & heavy middle weights at that time - Fit Finlay, Marty Jones, Mark Rocco & Dynamite and although they put on great shows against the their Japanese contemporaries (like this match) they could not quite match the toughness and skill of the likes of Tiger Mask.
In Japan, Dynamite was paid to bring out the best in Tiger Mask and to sell and lose when required. In reality, Dynamite was the best pound for pound wrestler of his era.
@@JBC321 Certainly in terms of technique and athleticism Dynamite was one of the greatest but one of the frustrations of professional wrestling is that it's impossible to say who was 'the best' given the theatrical element of the sport. I always thought Tiger Mask and Brett Hart had the edge on him but we'll never know - unless you have some evidence for your assertion?
@@wezselecta9929 It's not just my opinion. Bret Hart, who you reference in your reply, has always maintained the Dynamite Kid was the best pound for pound wrestler ever. So do many past and current wrestlers such as Bad News Allen (legit tough guy). I know it is a highly subjective subject, but that's my evidence. I saw Dynamite wrestle dozens of times at the Edmonton Sales Pavilion when he was in Stampede and I am still in awe of his skills.
@@JBC321 I’m the biggest dynamite mark around but your statement is the biggest bunch of ridiculous gibberish to disgrace a dynamite video. Sayama was a legitimate “shooter” who legitimately fought the wka #1 contender on the undercard of the Benny the jet vs okao fight with only two weeks of muay Thai at meijiro gym and later went on to found what was probably the first legitimate pro wrestling promotion in 2000 years. Where as Dynamite was the best “professional” wrestler Wigan ever produced, the key word being professional.
@@debraco7748 I should have qualified my response to say best professional wrestler. As we all know, professional wrestling has predetermined outcomes so to compare it to shoot fighting or MMA is comparing apples to oranges. And no disrespect to Sayama, but in the world of "professional wrestling", I consider Dynamite Kid the best pound for pound ever.
"The Dynamite Kid, pound for pound, the best wrestler of all time".
Bret Hart.
Very rare and priceless. Fujinami had already used the Dragon Screw at this time. Dynamite Kid is missed very much. Thx for uploading.
Fujinami is criminally overlooked as an qll time great .
Well not too overlooked, he's in the WWE HOF.

こんな貴重な対戦、あったんですね。。
初めてダイナマイト キッドを観たのがこの試合でした。
2人とも素晴らしい身体と身体能力やな
説得力ありすぎや
自分が説得力ある肉体とコメした後に全く同じ考えの方が。
藤波はJr.では大きくダニーホッジやヒロマツダさん以来の強いチャンプ。
キッドはJr.ど真ん中の体格。今思えばだげど、無理してヘビー、大きくして命を縮めてしまった。
Jr.チャンプとして長く活躍して欲しかった。
Thanks for the upload.

すごくいい試合。今の体操プロレスと比べてしまう。評価は個人、世代で色々だろうけど、個人的にはやはり昔のプロレスの方が面白いな。
Agreed! 100%
体操プロレス、同感です。
70年代から90年代まで、一つ一つの技の説得力、一つの試合の中でのストーリー、出汁が効いていて定食やコース料理の満足感がありますよね。
2000年以降、なんか肉、肉、肉、デザートが出たと思ったらまた肉、肉、みたいな。
本当は必殺技でメインディッシュになりうるバックドロップが、2000年代以降はお新香扱い。派手さを競うプロレスになりましたね💦
LIKEWISE!
試合運びうまいっす
自分も昔のプロレスの方が好きだけど今のプロレスが一部体操プロレスになってしまったことには、これまでリング内外で様々な経緯があってのこと。仕方なく思う。
ヘビー級に近い藤波さんと、ほぼライトヘビー級のキッドさんがスイングしている。
まさに超一流！
長髪のキッドが好き
藤波、猪木にそっくりですね。構え方、仕草、技の出し方、猪木のプロレスを見て成長したのでしょうね。
藤波相手にこれだけの試合ができるんだから、そりゃキッド強いはずやわ。貴重な試合見せてもらった。
Japanese commentary, Stampede show in Canada. One of Tom's favorite of his own matches, and his best show up to that point
Yup, it's definitely the Victoria Pavilion in Calgary !
この一年後、カナダを主戦場とするダイナマイトキッドがタイガーマスクの好敵手として日本で大ブレークするとは誰が想像しただろう。それにしてもキッドのアウエー感が半端ないな。
説得力ある肉体美の日本人レスラーが40年前にいたんだぜ。

Tom is an animal here in his youth.
Dynamite rocking the Bruce Lee Game Of Death colorway here
While Fujinami straight up rocking Bruce haircut
Brilliant video crisp snapping moves
この頃のドラゴン🐲とキッド、カッコいいなー‼️
5 star ⭐️ match Fujinami is one the best technicians ever
二人ともイケメンだし、いいカラダしてるし、全ての技にキレと説得力がある。演技とかブックとかそんなものがあろうとなかろうと関係ない最高のエンターテイメントだ。
ありがとうございました。
うまくスイングしてるなぁ、ドラゴン❣️
上手いわ‼️
有難うございます。
まさにカミソリだったこの頃のキット🎉素晴らしい🎉
うわ〜!!物すごくいい試合。
良いもの見せてもらいました。
サムネイル見て長髪でハンサムなレスラー誰だろって一瞬思いましたがダイナマイキッドとは。ヒールやっていたんですね。藤波にも応援の声援が沢山飛んでいてびっくり。試合内容も素晴らしいです。貴重な映像をありがとう。
じっくりレスリング＆プロレスしてて良いですね😳。やたらと飛ぶ飛ぶ🤔やたらと大技を乱発してカウント2.99の最近のプロレスは合わないです。徐々にギアを上げ最終的に自分の必殺技迄持って行く👍（昔は空中殺法ではなく立体殺法と呼ばれてましたね。）しかし藤波さんの線の細い事🤔
Amazing match
二人ともカッコイイ！
元祖元プ女子のうちのお母さん74歳が藤波さんのファンだった気持ちが解る
やっぱりプロレスはプロのレスリングであるべき。
かっこいい体してるな2人とも
すごい動画だ！
二人とも若い脂が乗ってましたね‼️格好良い😉
😂
Love this!
国際アワーでもまだ未放送の分が残っていた時に当て付けのように放送されたんですよね。
ダイナマイトキッドカッコいい！
藤波のベストバウトじゃないかな？キッドも最高！久しぶりに手に汗握る試合観た。生で観戦してたらド肝を抜かれたでしょう。
13:25 このヘッドバッド！
やっぱりJr.時代の藤波辰巳は最高。
キッドは個人的に坊主頭の方が良いな。
最高！！
Wish wrestling was still like this today

貴重な映像。
やっぱりダイナマイトキッドは最高や🎉
It is said Kid loved working in Japan because he felt taller.
Japan pays a lot more attention to other weight divisions. As does the British Isles
見るべき者が、ここにいました。
ドラゴンスクリューってこんな時からこの名前で使ってたのか。80年代前半からプロレスを見てるのですが知らなかったです。
This match feels like it's on 1.5x speed idk why
🧨 kid is Y
昭和のプロレスの味方です。
Superb talent but announced at 210LBS? Probably was no more than 170 lol.
Dynamite has the IT factor here so much it's not even funny. It's bleeding off him moreso than any other talent I have ever seen. Absolutely amazing match. A million trillion billion stars.
Classic Canadian technical wrestling v Japanese technical wrestling. 3.75 out of 5 stars. Needed a clean finish
Dynamite kid was British not Canadian
@chuckbuskee all of his early training was done in England with either Ted Betley( working pro wrestling) or with Jack Fallon (shoot lancashire catch as catch can wrestling)
He'd been wrestling several years professionally before Bruce Hart convinced him to come to Canada
The Hart's had nothing to do with his early training whatsoever
@chuckbuskee no e of what you wrote has anything to do with what I wrote
I already know Dynamite's back ground
When he came to Canada he changed and influenced stampede wrestling (and later in the 80s I founded all of pro wrestling) not the other way around
You're misplaced nationalist fantasies are just that
Pure fantasy
@chuckbuskee nonsense, marty jones and mark rocco influenced him, he was better in Canada but that is simply more experience
この時のダイナマイトキッドで173センチ80キロ位ですね、筋肉増強剤服用して大きくなったんですね
Dynamite was so thin back then.
Dynamite Kid got a Catch As Catch Can with Snake Bit. Is that the correct answer? Either way, it ’s a craftsmanship match.
ステロイド使用前のダイナマイト・キッドですな。

周りが求めたのか、自分が選択したのかわからんが、dynamite kidのスピード感あふれる試合運びからパワーを加味した試合運びになったのはあとあとのことを考えると残念でならない。junior heavyでの戦いでトップになれなかったからかな。
Dynamite Kid looks like Shawn Michaels in the thumbnail.
キッド若いなぁ

this is from calgary stampede wresling.
Now that's dynomite
両者は何回シングルでやったっけ。最後は84年夏だったと
記憶してます。
Dynamite did hold this title briefly.
This is the Dynamite Kid I remember when at Stampede Wrestling. Not the sluggish muscle bound guy that WWF turned him in to
Same. He was brilliant under 200 lbs. Untouchable!
this looks like the Victoria Pavilion in Calgary, no?
@@MrManfly I was thinking that as well but judging by crowd size it may be in the nearby Corall which seats 4000.
I'm also looking at the hockey boards. The Coral was the first home to the Calgary Flames until the Olympic Saddledome was completed
It was out of necessity, nothing that the WWF did.
Stampede or World of Sport Wrestling no?
We all had this weird love hate relationship with Dynamite we knew we were seeing greatness but man he was such a bad guy lol
Maybe a nod to ‘game of death’ and Bruce Lee by Dynamite?
I agree most likely
受けまくる藤波さんだから成立してる気もするんだけど(´･ω･`;)
14:24ここすっげぇ好き
Dynamite is 20 here.
He had already been a pro for 5 years.
He was a few months into steroids at this point. The Junkyard Dog I troduced him to them.
He needed some sort of bulking up unfortunately with how 80s wrestling was. He doesn’t look much bigger than Spike Dudley or Adam Cole here.

Shocked to see Fujinami working in Canada .
