That was great to watch .... I remember leaving Staten Island going over the ferry jumping on the train going to Times Square and buying these videotapes.....

[@GhostManBrandonDDpre]

So much for the "quiet, reserved" Japanese fans. 4 of the top 10 wrestlers of all time. This match rules.

[@christopherkahn6522]

Brutal. You need a high tolerance for pain to withstand this. Hats off to these great pro wrestlers.

[@georgeelmerdenbrough6906]

I have talked to a few wrestlers and what most of them say is that their adrenaline is so high that they do not register the pain until they tire out . Usually the next day they feel it .

goat of wrestling tag teams,........ period...... another level of physicality

[@masterjedi5510]

I love wrestling of the 80's and 90's, but this is an example of blurring the lines of reality at it's finest!! I know it's a work and that these guys didn't hate each other, hell, they all played football at the same college in West Texas, but watching this match I have no problem at all suspending disbelief! Guys in the business today couldn't handle this style of rasslin!

[@dantecarroll2435]

It’s predetermined not fake there’s a big difference

[@user-gi4ws7hx1r]

やっぱり良い試合だと思う。ファンクス対ハンセン、ブロディは、持ち味は違えど上手い具合に絡んで観客を魅了してくれました。 圧倒的パワーで超獣コンビが押しまくりながらも、テクニックと熟練の受けでファンクスが粘りを見せる。だいたい流血しながら。 現在のプロレスは全く見ませんが、この当時はワクワクしながらテレビにかじりついたものです。 それにしても、画像が綺麗ですね。

[@neilgoldring4832]

Fantastic film quality on these early 80's AJPW matches😀😀😀😀🏆🏆👑👑🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵 4 ABSOLUTE LEGENDS!!!!!! By the way lets here it for both teams entrance music, classic.

[@genoray3071]

Man, Brody got some height on those leg drops.

[@georgeelmerdenbrough6906]

I am a big Dory Funk Jr Fan as of late . I was not as a kid . It was his image that turned me away . He looked older than he was and his physique was not like the younger generation with their steroids . Once I grew out of that type of fandom though ...Dory was a wrestling god . Everything he did looked legit .

[@jasondelvaux3036]

Compared to this, today's pro-wrestling is just a New Kids On the Block concert. That's why MMA is so popular now. You have to do it for real to get the same entertainment value as this stuff.

[@johnniecontreras3622]

Gotta give credit to all...these hombres are tough as nails..the funks,brodie,hansen..respect to all.

[@adeltoral]

The five craziest guys to ever lace up the boots: (1) Terry Funk, (2) Bruiser Brody, (3) The Sheik, (4) Abdullah the Butcher, (5) Stan Hansen... and three of the five are in this match, including the G.O.A.T. Terry Funk! What more can you possibly ask for, really?!

[@kallambert6012]

Great match! Awesome psychology!

[@presidentfunnyvalentined4c567]

Old vs new Dory is the veteran and outwitting the younger power house team of Brody and Hansen. Terry's facial expressions while selling are the best ever. I miss this 'rasslin

昭和58年と59年は実質年2回最強タッグリーグ戦がありましたね（59年はPWFタッグ争奪戦） 4回のうち3回優勝してる超獣コンビの凄さ

[@donjohnson1498]

Four legends… Brody and Hansen would protect their reps as ass kickers in Japan, but they knew it was good business to sell for Dory and Terry.

[@pooddescrewch8718]

Hansen and Brody are not the most decorated team but I would take then over The Roadwarriors any day . A match between those two teams would suck because of the egos involved . However , Brody / Hansen vs Eady / Darsow ? That would be epic

[@h_onoh_aruta2750]

まさにプロレスや。

[@user-qp6wk8sn7j]

かつてはファンクスの弟子だったミラクルコンビが成長して自分たちと互角に闘える力を持つまでになってドリーもテリーも全力で迎えうっていい試合になっている。相手がブッチﾔー、シーク組とはまた違った強さとパワーがあり大変だと思うが良く頑張っている。特にテリーの動きがいい。そしてドリーも上手くリードしている。外人同士の迫力あるハイレベルの試合だ。本当に素晴らしい。そして懐かしい。

[@sebastianvella8992]

Great wrestlers, great era, great match and a great promotion. This match is fast without it being confusing, exciting without it being cartoonish, tough without being too dangerous or violent and very move is well timed and well explained. Modern wrestlers should learn from Dory's and Briuser's leg drops and Hansen's elbow drops. However, they should start with watching Terry's punches the effort, the timing and the believability of every shot and the variations in them ( punch, headbutt, chop etc...) makes modern day fast two handed punches look so fake.

A real hoss fight

[@conciergemarie6981]

Wrestlers really should hold onto the ropes more when they get whipped into them. I like how Dory Jr. does that. Makes a lot of sense.

[@pooddescrewch8718]

Dory had a physique like a wet sack of concrete . But you could see that he worked out a lot ....just probably with bag weight and not iron weights . That was part of Brody's work out too but he used both .Both had no body fat . Stan was just big and rawboned . Terry did not show which style of workouts he used . I read about Brody , other wise I would have assumed he was an iron banger . Working with bag weight developed tendon and sinew and works the core more than iron weights do .

[@ComicBookGuy420]

What a match

[@user-tq3gy2hx9o]

Two big men moving like light weights

[@georgeelmerdenbrough6906]

Terry Funk is the smallest guy in that ring . 6'2" and roughly 250 lbs ! Dory is 6'3" and closer to 260lbs solid . Hansen is 6'2" 310 lbs and Brody is 6'4"+ and roughly 300 lbs . No steroids , just gym time and high protien diets ( Especially Brody )

[@CP-kb1du]

Dory Funk Jr was Born a Old Man ....

[@pooddescrewch8718]

Brody and Hansen's size were misleading ....they were bigger than you would see on TV until you could see either in direct comparison with their opponent .Hansen despite not being overly muscular did not have disproportionate body fat despite weighing 310 lbs on a 6'2" frame . Brody's height has been disputed quite a bit ...that 6'8" claim was bunk ...Stan said he was about 6'4" but others said 6'5" ...he looks 6'5" to me . The Funks look to be 6'2" a piece but Dory looks to be a bit taller .
