Bob Backlund vs Ken Patera

Comments on 'Bob Backlund vs Ken Patera'

1. Backlund was WWF Champion during "six years" How did he do
   that?
2. These were the days when you kid take a kid to wrestling.
3. Vince does look a little fruity at times. But do you know
   for sure he is gay?
4. Vince is into ANYTHING.
5. Bob set a great example but as the mid 80's rolled in and
   morals became outdated and churches became business's I
   guess he was no longer in vogue.
6. is Vince gay?
7. Good match! Bearhug rest hold is the best time to go to the
   concession stand.
8. I remember reading about this in a mag from the 80's
9. Backlund always looked awkward and girlish in the ring. No
   wonder Vince McMahon liked him so much.
10. Patera's brother Jack coached the Seattle Seahawks in the
    70's.
11. January 21, 1980
12. Ken Patera could wrestle as well as brawl and in effect
    create the classic wrestling match. Especially with Bob
    backlund of whom knew each other well from the AWA days in
    Minnesota and so forth.
13. No high risk moves in those days.
14. I love how Backlund's eyes rolled up in his head and how
    many times he passed out (limp arm) from this long bear hug.
    Good work!
15. Ken came back in '87 with a vacant look in his eyes. He was
    a broken man and from there it was affto the AWA where he
    would drift even further into the abyss.
16. When this match took place?
17. That bear hug was AWESOME!
18. I used to love it when Ken Patera did his Strong Man Feats
    in the ring and Vince would always play along so well...
19. Ken was beast I remember when he threw Hercules high across
    the ring. From one turn buckle to the other and that was in
    1987-I think. He was a face. It was a comeback after a 2
    year layoff he was feuding with the Heenan Family He was
    allot older and he stopped bleaching his hair but the
    superpower was still there
20. There's clips of it on the 'Superstar Billy Graham' dvd that
    WWE put out last year.
21. HIS WRESTLING SHOOT IS FUNNY AS HELL.
22. Ken Patera was a great act along with Playboy Buddy Rose,
    Terry Funk, Angelo Moscow, Blackjack Mulligan, Stan Hanson,
    Killer Khan, Superstar Billy Graham, Greg Valentine..what
    memories
23. What happened to the finish? Wasn't Patera supposed to win?
24. i`m woundering about that too if they have that match where
    backlund won the title
25. Boring bearhug = Time to go to the concession stand.
