Despite a combined runtime of approximately 90 minutes for the two shows spotlighted, this discussion ends up going nearly twice that length! On tap was a 2016 NXT from Full Sail with a big-time main event pitting American Alpha against The Revival in a 2\/3 Falls blow-off match, and a 1983 episode of World Class from the Sportatorium which similarly showcased great tag team wrestling as the Von Erichs and Freebirds battled it out for the six-man titles. Alan and Suit were also treated to a healthy dose of Iceman King Parsons, some Jimmy Garvin greatness, prime Bayley, Balor-Nakamura build, and much more, including a wrestler who was a real revelation on the NXT show.
