May 23, 1992 - Portland Wrestling Newspaper Clipping - Tag Team Battle

May 23, 1992, clipping from the Express Weekly Advertiser. There wasn't much coverage on TV, so we had to get our match lineups from the paper. There were some cable channels that had the show, but I didn't have one of those channels. Did you? Always looking for tape from those days! This is just one week before Don Owen retired.

Weekly World News Article about Col. DeBeers - September 11, 1990

Do you remember the tabloid called "Weekly World News"? They were known for their outlandish stories about Elvis sightings, the Bat Boy, Bigfoot, and other such nonsense. I loved it! In the early 90s, they started including wrestling articles. This one is from September 11, 1990. See also the letter about Buddy Rose and his weight issues.

Sandy & Tito's Ringside Gym Flyer

This gym was a place where wrestlers and fans worked out side by side.

I believe these flyers were tucked into programs on occasion. 

Early 90s.

 

Portland Wrestling TV Commercial to Promote April 18, 1992 - Steve Doll - You Tube Video

Steve Doll promotes a tag team title match for April 18, 1992. I don't have the footage of that night, or much of 1992 at all. I didn't have the cable channel that the show aired on in the early months of that year. Let me know if you have that or any other footage on VHS. I can digitize it for you, even if it has that white mold on it! I really just want all the Portland Wrestling footage that is hidden on old VHS to come out!
