Tim and Rich were finally able to find time to record! This time, they went back to Madison Square Garden on August 7, 1976. It's Bruno Sammartino's return to MSG after the Texas bounty hunter, Stan Hansen, broke his neck. This injury not just nearly ended Bruno's amazing career, but nearly ended his incredible life. Bruno gets his revenge on Stan in a brutal steel cage match. Also on the card, The Executioners, who despite their masks, aren't fooling anyone on their identities. Bruiser Brody whips up on a baby Kevin Sullivan. We have the always beloved Chief Jay Strongbow in tag action, a late career appearance of Bobo Brazil, and the other pillar of MSG events, Ivan Putski and his Polish hammer. This show was incredible and we had fun talking about it! Thanks for tuning in!
