Ah the Von Erichs... I wasn't even watching the company they worked for and I knew them as a kid, so they must have been special. Or something.

I want to go back and watch that feud now. Quick googling has revealed that not only are some matches online, they were voted feud of the year.

"Has anyone been able to locate any Freebird vs. Von Erich stuff and if so was it any good". My memory is that yes that was a good feud but I haven't seen it in ages. ahhhh. i thought he was referring to a wwe dvd rewriting the history of the angle..anywho, there is tons of matches on youtube. many of which is ok quality at best. treat yourself to the Michael Hayes promos, they were excellent..

Quick googling has revealed that not only are some matches online, they were voted feud of the year. it made WCCW a top promotion. it afforded them to break away from the NWA. that program alone sold out Texas Stadium... again, if not for The Fabulous Freebirds..

Dude, no thanks. I hear enough of that guy on the WWE Roundtables. they were terrific promos, i get you on the roundtable thing. but, there is a difference between stuffed suit Michael Hayes, and "lemme go get some heat for my match" Michael Hayes..

Oh I'm sure, I was just having fun at his obnoxiously loquacious and self-serving expense.

I've gotta be honest. I hate everything about the Freebirds. They were mediocre wrestlers and, sorry, I don't get "brilliant promo" from Hayes. I get "dude who honestly believes that he's amazing, but still can't make me give a rats ass" Literally the only positive thing I can say about Michael Hayes is "boy.... he sure did appear very briefly in The Highlander, and I'm a fan of The Highlander."
Lots of shouting. All I can think of when I watch that promo is this;
... except that Brick would crush Michael Hayes in an IQ test.
