You can't tell me Austin Idol wasn't inspired by Superstar Billy Graham. 💯

The big turn by Ole Anderson is so close. One of perhaps the greatest angles in wrestling history.

This angle between Rhoades and Ole was one of the best ever. They're both geniuses for this. Yes ole ends up double crossing Dusty. It caused a huge pop from the audience.
@garyrasberryjr.552 Жыл бұрын
The great thing was it took over six months to develop, with Ole turning face in late 1979 and teaming with Stan Hansen, Tommy Rich and Wrestling II. He had the fans believing he turned. The better thing is that Ole didn't turn on Dusty in their first match. They waited for for the payoff match in the cage. Jim Cornette was there as part of the WFIA (Wrestling Fans International Association) convention that was in Atlanta that year. He was scheduled to go ringside to photograph the "actual" main event of Harley Race vs. Tommy Rich for the title, but he only had color film and it would have made shooting through the cage impossible, so he avoided the riot at ringside when fans and wrestlers tried to get into the cage after Ole turned.
