I was watching the Savage/Warrior "retirement" match on disk last night, and it came to the ending where Elizabeth threw Sherri out of the ring, and the thought came to me, "Both of these women are dead now, it's depressing."

THE ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN (S1 E11): "No Holds Barred"
"Bad Luck Brannigan, a wrestler working for a crooked promoter, uses the 'paralyzer' to cripple opponents. Clark Kent discovers the promoter has imprisoned an immigrant dubbed the 'Swami' who has extensive knowledge of the body's pressure points. In his Superman identity, Clark sees the immigrant. The Swami instructs Superman in his techniques. As Clark, he then teaches a college wrestler – who has publicly challenged Brannigan – how to counter the 'paralyzer'. Guest Stars:Dick Reeves as Bad Luck Brannigan, Tito Renaldo as Ramm, Malcolm Mealey as Wayne, Henry Kulky (a former wrestler in real life) as Crusher (uncredited), Dick Elliott as Sam Bleaker, Karl Davis as Adonis (uncredited), Herb Vigran as Murray, Bill Kennedy as TV announcer (uncredited)."
You'll recognize Dick Reeves from multiple "Three Stooges" shorts as a gangster; Henry Kulky played Chief Curley Jones in Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea.
Brock Lesnar/Oba Femi Wrestlemania Match I guessed who would go over in this. I didn't guess what would happen afterwards. I guess that he wanted it to go to someone that could believasbly match hiim for size and power. I guess we don't get the Gunther match, then,

Interesting. There's a lot of those old shows that I watched as a kid that I'd probably get a lot molre out of if I re-watched them today.
