i t v wrestling returns,
By J. Scrimshaw "you ai'nt heard it til you hear... (nottingham United Kingdom) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Best of ITV Wrestling - A - Z [DVD] (DVD)
hello again grapple fans i t v wrestling has at last returned with another release on dvd. I have to say this one is better than the offering from last year as its not so much centered around haystacks and daddy but the other favourites includeing les kellit who we saw last time, the british bulldog appearing here as young david aged just 16 and one of my favourites king kendo nagasaki. Once again its world of sports own dickie davis hosting. If its so good why only four stars? well simply because yet again granada are giving us very rushed matches mear highlights of the wrestling action when complete matches are avaleable elsewhere on dvd although not as widely as this release. Still a great effort hope to see more releases like it. Big moments? Well it has to be giant haystacks back elbowing m c brian crabtree accidentaly whilst gestureing at big daddy aka the fat fraud hillarious! anyway so long fight fans til next time.

Plenty grunting and groaning and that's just the commentary! You know what to expect! Go for it. It's a laugh.

Saturday afternoon fun,
By DJB "db0303" (UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Best of ITV Wrestling - A - Z [DVD] (DVD)
Only those of a certain age will remember this. I prefer American-style wrestling, but I do have fond memories of tuning in with my nan to watch the British wrestling on a saturday afternoon. Big Daddy, Giant Haystacks, Mick McManus...loved all the baddies. But hated the way the matches dragged on...broken up into rounds, interminable rest holds, little in the way of high-flying.
On the plus side, I thought the 'public warnings' were great though, and the contorted granny faces at ringside giving the bad guys what-for!! Marvellous. Young lads and lasses who have ever only known the WWE-style of grappling may actually find this snapshot of 70s/early 80s British TV wrestling quite intriguing though - if only for a few laughs on a wet weekend afternoon. Which is pretty much the purpose it served originally!
