people forget this guy is a fan and they found this 8mm film and we are lucky to see this because they never recorded the match. people sweat the guy saying he's terrible but that would be you or me calling the match over the film, who cares if he's calling the match i'm glad i got to see the match. after all these years and no one knew this existed. just pictures on the apter mags.

A lot of it is because many of the old MSG shows were not filmed. And even when they were, a bunch of the footage was lost in a fire in the early 80s.

yeah back in the old days it wasn't uncommon for fans to try and attack the heels. IT was actually considered a good thing by the guys if the fans tried that as they felt they weren't doing a good job if they didn't. Ah it was a different time back in the old days. But yeah according to Koloff the reason why the ref felt the crowd was going to try and attack him was 1. Bruno was champ for 8 years and never lost the title before that point and was hugely over in the New York territory 2. the crowd was awfully quiet after Koloff took the belt from Bruno which as I said back in those days it wasn't uncommon for fans to try and attack the heels, one of the reasons why heel managers always carried some item with them like a cane or in Cornett's case a tennis racket to help smack rowdy fans, so when the fans got quiet they thought a riot might happen.

To celebrate your twenty first birthday, you went to a wrestling show with your small child, the main event a title match with your favorite wrestler, Bruno Sammartino, defending his title. This man, who held the championship for a third of your life, loses it clean to a Russian, your sworn American enemy. Heartbreaking.

In between he defended the belt only a couple of times (one was against Chief Jay Strongbow in Philadelphia - Koloff won by countout). The reason the two matches were 4 weeks apart was that MSG shows back then were 4 weeks apart, and always on Monday nights.

@TonySpargo What you said was true, except the part about them wanting to replace Pedro quickly as champ. He continued the wrestling sell-out streak at MSG for almost three years, then Bruno came back and sold it out for another 3 years. The only time in the last 40 years that wrestling lost interest at MSG was during the early '90s, when fans stopped caring about the "cartoon characters" like Hogan and Ultimate Warrior that Vince was ramming down their throats.

In all seriousness though this was amazing. I was born in Brooklyn, 100% Italian, in 1978. My real first memories as a human being revolve around watching wrestling upstairs in my grandma's apartment,and catching a very VERY few of Bruno's matches (or at least replays) in 1981 before he left for Japan (October 4th, 1981, Meadowlands, his last US match at the time vs George Steele! I only remember that date reading about it years later cuz I was exactly 3 years, 5 months old lol...) And wrestling has been in my life, my entire life, since then... my Grandmother LOVED the Italian Living Legend, and my Dad would tell us about Bruno as we got older, on our way to the Ridgewood Grove Arena for local shows hahaha... I wish I was older to have seen this, or to understand its importance, and not just thru my Grandma like havin a stroke cuz the " 'Talian " guy lost lol ...all I know is hearing about this was when my damn near STRICT heel fandom kick started!

The Northeast (WWWF) was based on having a strong babyface champion. Ivan Koloff and Stan Stasiak were pure transitional champs.

Well, actually Pedro held the belt for a year or two and couldn't draw the crowds. He was certainly young enough to have continued as champ. But due to his not being able to fill the arenas Vince SR brought Bruno back due to Bruno's continued drawing power... and kept Bruno for another 4 years and Bruno once again had to say, enough is enough and told McMahon that if he'd retire with the title unless he let him go, so Mc Mahon let him go.

Leonardo Anedda Samartino probably ate too much spaghetti and meatballs prior to the match, I mean you could literally see spaghetti sauce running out of his ears, nose, mouth and out his ass. Noway could it be mistaken for blood, although koloff beat him to a bloody pulp that night...lol ha ha ha ha! Ciao Bella paisan.

Matches at that time where not like matches today. The weak finishes were very common.

Koloff was actually from Canada. But just like with Slaughter in the 90's beating The Warrior and the Iron Shiek beating Backlund back in late 83 they were just transitional champs.

"You could hear a pin drop!" That's exactly what happened the moment he lost the title.

Koloff ended an 8 year WWF title reign with a knee drop... A fucking KNEE DROP. What the flippity-flop

The Undertaker vs Brock Lesnar @ WrestleMania XXX will be looked upon in the same breath and pedestal as this in history books

Match quality has zilch to do with that.

Maybe. It was the closest thing that our generation has to Bruno losing his title after an 8 year super run.
@melbias50467 жыл бұрын
uh, it was senior not junior and bruno wanted to let go of the belt, he needed a break.

Danny Martin you guys should understand Bruno lost the tile after 8 years the crowd went silent just like takers night they were crying just like ppl cried when taker lost they were furious just like after wm 30 and they threw chairs in the ring after Bruno lost ppl did the same for taker on social media I honestly believe takers legacy is nothing short or inferior to the legacy of Bruno sammartino

That shocked the world! They had to give Ivan The title in the back room out of fear of a riot. People were too stunned by the crushing defeat of their champion.

Kolof should be recognized more as having a bond/chemistry with sammartino. They did a good job with their wrestling moves and the match was non stop action... they kept going at it. Yea maybe some rest holds are boring but they kept the flow good and that's what matches should be about. Not just a bunch of jobbers putting people over

@Sanguiluna You are so right!!! Wrestling was so much better than it is today. The packaging that it has now, its a damned soap opera that is just garbage to the time when Bruno was champ! No wonder he has repeatedly cricized the current state that his sport is now in.

Get ready for Roman Reigns to be the next Bruno Sammartino lol. The way things are looking he's never gonna lose the title. By the time he does fans will be in attendance thru augmented reality.

Back in the day when you didn't know if a wrestler was going to kick out after receiving a body slam or elbow drop.
