Rob Naylor's monthly music videos chronicling the 80s as part of @pwoloss.bsky.social's Wrestling Playlists are fast becoming one of my favourite things. I hope Rob continues them for as long as possible. They are such a beautiful way of chronicling the history of wrestling.

Nothing ever changes. From @pwoloss.bsky.social July 1985 Timeline.

Up now: The AWA created a contingency plan to protect themselves if they lost yet another top wrestler to the WWF, which led to a strange show ending. Promised the World: In Depth on AWA SuperClash II Subscribe: wrestlingplaylists.com

April 27, 1987: -3 classic AJW matches-Leilani Kai's finest hour, Akira Hokuto's injury & Dump's best tag -Most heated head shaving & maybe it's greatest match finish -NJPW hosts the biggest epic & best up-close match (and probably best handheld to ever surface) on same show

🤼Preaching to the choir but you don't have to watch this shit. Wrestling both current and historical, local and global, has never been more plentiful or accessible. AEW, NJPW, the Chicago archive, @pwoloss.bsky.social or @krisplettuce.bsky.social or a million other channels and drives are out there.

Tip: If you want to really do a deep dive on New Japan during this time, it's not a classic match, but the Murdoch tag here and the pre-match angle with him before Inoki-Bigelow are something you should watch. It sets up Murdoch's year, and he's a huge highlight.

Welcome to all of the new Wrestling Playlists subscribers! This morning, an email will go out to explain this whole project in a lot more detail. Longtime readers have seen it before & can probably skip it but it might be useful to those of you coming on board.

The main reason I open my inbox most days

God I love Bryan being such a nerd he would use a AEW media appearance to shout out the Wrestling Playlist newsletter. Big Fan of it just like me

This Flair/Ole feud has been one of the best feuds I've ever seen. This promo is one of if not THE BEST promo I've ever watched. Eyes glued to the screen for minutes on end. @pwoloss.bsky.social doing the lords work chronologizing this feud youtu.be/Ihc-LDf43kk?...

Wow! Thanks so much to Bryan Danielson!

Was not expecting that. Big thanks to Bryan Danielson!

Reminding you to seek out a sleek yet sensible fall ensemble.

I believe the kids would call this match a hoot and a half.

This week and next, Wrestling Playlists subscribers, make sure you get in your thoughts on February 1987.

I'm pretty far ahead in 1987. It's like a good book I can't seem to put down. The wonderful thing about the best pro wrestling is that I feel like I'm becoming a fan all over again when I watch it. 1987 has been the most rewarding period to go through for me since starting Wrestling Playlists.

I can only be in so many places at once.

Get by with a little help from your friends.

🤼🧵Charles @pwoloss.bsky.social had a post today about the Supertowns on the Superstation special on WTBS in 1987 that can be summed up as great idea in theory, completely fucked the execution, and I wanted to take a look at what they did and how it might have been improved. (1/?)

@pwoloss.bsky.social , Rob Naylor, and myself had a real cracker of a damn show right here folks!!! From 2 Live Crew to El Gigante to the fall of the Berlin Wall this show hits June 1990 like a motherfucker!!!

After 6 1/2 years in the wrestling historian "territory", I will be "finishing up my run" later this year. I discuss the why/how/when of it all on this month's podcast; I encourage you to give it a listen to better understand what led me to this decision. rss.com/podcasts/cha...
