Bill Dundee vs. Adrian Street (1984/11/23)

[@jonathanturbide2232]

Street was the total package: one hell of a wrestler, one hell of a character, and one hell of an entertainer. Real shame we never saw him on the big stage of the WWF.

[@sticky3983]

He would be over in today's WWE but they are too politically correct

[@RobwLPOC]

@@sticky3983 ahhh, but would political correctness say they are transphobic/ anti-lgbtq LMNOP if they didn't give him a job for the fact he's a transvestite? I mean if a movie studio was refusing to hire a actor for his lifestyle choices people would be up in arms over it. It might actually work in his advantage these days LMAO

[@RobwLPOC]

Not to mention coming from a catch wrestling background he could tie people in to human pretzels within seconds

[@scottmitchell3591]

So right Jonathan. Street was the real deal , could wrestle like a bobcat , plus make you laugh your ass off. He was one of my all time favorites

[@rodneybrown2448]

He was old school

This match was 36 years ago and today I just happen to come along this video. Thanks so much for uploading!

[@scottmitchell3591]

By the way , Miss Linda did a great job selling in the match. 3 talented performers

Great match, classic finish!

[@patricksullivan2261]

Bill Dundee loved Adrian Street's gimmick. He lobbied to bring him into Memphis when Street was just starting to wrestle in the US and then brought him into Mid-South when he got the book there. Street was still getting used to the American style (check out his UK matches) but since Dundee had grown up in Scotland he knew how to bridge that transition. Honestly it is not either man's best match. Check out any of the (hundreds, maybe thousands) of matches Bill Dundee had with Jerry Lawler or catch Street later in his American career when he was fully up to speed on US wrestling. But Street was an attraction and Dundee was determined to get matches to showcase him. Of course... when the wheel turned and Bill didn't have the book in Memphis than Adrian Street was released. Though that lead to a big run in Florida with Dusty Rhodes and Kevin Sullivan.

Damn! I was so hoping Lance Russell was commentating. Weird not hearing commentating on matches. Haha. Lance Russell was one of my favorites growing up.

[@libra42ful]

I like the no commentary...if you listen closely, you can hear the in ring banter, taunts, slurs, and "commands" between the wrestlers...and the ref

[@SammyVideoPlex]

Good match a entertaining match you can tell how it's set up. Promoters was glad hearing the fans being part of it. ❤

[@scottmitchell3591]

Ol Bill showed more interest going after Miss Linda than he did Adrian. 😅

[@geespot9006]

Ran into this by chance and it was OK,being British I remember street when I was a kid and went to or watched wrestling on telly.street was a top drawer because he could do the job and was the best heel for me despite mick mcmanuas and steve logan.i loved the heels,still do but where has the actual wrestling gone

[@marciadesouza3314]

Bill you deserved to win and you won 🏆. Those 2 were really nasty.

[@kgarrett1404]

Took the persona of wrestler Gorgeous George to higher level of camp!

[@Davepool-hs7vr]

How was Ms. Linda getting into the ring and getting involved is not a disqualification at 6:27?

[@KaseyLiamVlogs]

The audio on here is odd but, man, what a match.

[@RobwLPOC]

The little things meaning so much and the art form is with getting lost. That part of that is because of the loss of the territories and the guy's not sitting in the backseat of car learning the finer points of the psychology. About 80 to 90% of what the guys needed to be successful was learned in the car and not the ring

[@rodneybrown2448]

Adrian was a shooter,style wrestler.He could have honestly hurt someone,doing old style wrestling moves.If he wanted to.

[@John-nd4fu]

Dundee is short like a spark plug, Adrian is the master .

[@marciadesouza3314]

What is the referee doing about what is going on in the ring??? Only running from one end to the other end.

[@alexshepherd1558]

Was bill Dundee Australian like crocodile Dundee

[@hustlinhitch]

Yes.

[@maraviyoso8473]

He was born in Scotland, but moved to Australia while very young

[@sprayarm]

Short man match!

[@carltonbost236]

Is this supposed to be a handicap match? If not why didn’t they send the winch to the dressing room?

[@ronsharer2986]

What the hell was that referee getting paid for? That's 17 minutes of my life I'll never get back. I'd really say what I think but nowadays it would probably get me in trouble. How unfortunate.

[@StevenKeery]

This was boring as Hell to watch. They really ruined wrestling with all the play acting.
