All Japan Diaries: Match #90
Match #90: Stan Hansen & Ted Dibiase vs. Genichiro Tenryu & Ashura Hara (7/23/87) Dibiase’s farewell to All Japan. We know Hansen/Dibiase are dropping the tag straps, but it’s how we get there that I’m excited to see.

All Japan Diaries: Match #88
Tuesday, October 4, 2011
Match #88: Stan Hansen & Ted Dibiase vs. Jumbo Tsuruta & Tiger Mask (7/11/87) We get our first of three straight Hansen/Dibiase matches, this time verses the interesting team of Jumbo/Misawa.
All Japan Diaries: Match #79
Saturday, June 25, 2011
Match #79: Jumbo Tsuruta & Genichiro Tenryu vs. Stan Hanson & Ted Dibiase (12/12/86) This was a great seven minute story where everyone played a role. Hansen/Dibiase cut off the ring perfectly, were great mean fuckers, and had bruising work to back it up. And it’s right from the start (surprise lariat!), as they pick [...]
All Japan Diaries: Match #62
Thursday, June 2, 2011
Match # 62: Ted Dibiase & Stan Hansen vs. Riki Choshu & Yoshiaki Yatsu (12/12/85) Choshu’s Army in a position as the native heroes? Interesting…
All Japan Diaries: Match #58
Friday, May 27, 2011
Match #58: Jumbo Tsuruta & Genichiro Tenryu vs. Stan Hansen & Ted Dibiase (8/31/85) Hansen has adopted Dibiase into his circle, and now they have a big show showdown with the great Jumbo Tsuruta and his number two, Tenryu.
All Japan Diaries: Match #37
Tuesday, May 10, 2011
Match #37: Genichiro Tenryu vs. Ted Dibiase (10/23/83) A young Ted Dibiase wears a robe saying “Italian Stallion” to the ring. What the hell?
Mid South Diaries: Match #141
Saturday, September 13, 2008
Match # 141: Ted DiBiase vs. One Man Gang (No DQ) (2/6/87) A rematch in Houston of a surprisingly good match from earlier in the set (Match # 135). This was follows the storyline as it now has a stipulation of No DQ and its Dibiase challenging for OMG’s UWF Championship. We begin…
Mid South Diaries: Match #140
Wednesday, August 27, 2008
Match # 140: Ted DiBiase & Dr. Death vs. Terry Gordy & Michael Hayes (Badstreet Match) (1/25/87) No need for a huge write up. We’ve seen many combinations of these four men in the ring during the last several Mid South Diaries. In fact, we’ve seen this exact match with this exact stipulation. Funny thing [...]
Mid South Diaries: Match #138
Wednesday, August 27, 2008
Match # 138: Ted DiBiase & Dr. Death vs. Terry Gordy & Michael Hayes (Badstreet Match) (1/9/87) It’s funny that Gordy and Hayes wear cut off T-shirts and jeans here as the cool heels, and a decade later Stevie Richards would do it as a “clueless putz”. I only bring it up because Gordy and [...]
Mid South Diaries: Match #135
Sunday, August 24, 2008
Match # 135: Ted DiBiase vs. One Man Gang (11/18/86) One Man Gang is now the champion? Things have gotten suddenly puzzling in an otherwise great 1986. Actually this may be when a Gordy car accident, combined with nagging injuries he worked through during the title reign, conspired to take him out of action for [...]
Mid South Diaries: Match #133
Sunday, August 24, 2008
Match # 133: Ted DiBiase & Terry Taylor vs. Michael Hayes & Buddy Roberts (Country Whipping Match) (10/12/86) This match comes out of the 8/31/86 lumberjack match I’d guess. Heel Freebirds are cocky when they come out. Faces come out to “Born in the USA” because we can’t have a face not come out to [...]
Mid South Diaries: Match #128
Friday, August 22, 2008
Match # 128: Ted DiBiase & Dr. Death vs. Michael Hayes & Buddy Roberts (Lumberjack Match) (8/31/86) Christ the Freebirds were awesome in the 80s! If you saw World Class from ’82 through ’85 and then this run, you know why Shawn Michaels wanted to be Michael PS Hayes and the rest of the Kliq [...]
Mid South Diaries: Match #117
Thursday, August 21, 2008
Match # 117: Michael Hayes & Buddy Roberts vs. Ted DiBiase & Terry Taylor (5/25/86) The production of the shows and tapings has gotten a lot better very quickly. Then again, everything I’ve been watching has been at the Houston tapings which are the big house shows with full matches so I haven’t seen a [...]
Mid South Diaries: Match #109-110
Wednesday, August 20, 2008
Match # 109: Koko B. Ware vs. Eddie Gilbert (2/28/86) The first of four from the same Houston card. Four matches making it to a 150 match best of the decade review? Must have been a hell of a card. Then again, I’m sure a lot of great cards have happened over the years where [...]
Mid South Diaries: Match #107
Wednesday, August 20, 2008
Match # 107: Ted DiBiase & Dr. Death vs. Dick Murdoch & Masked Superstar (2/14/86) They cut TV promos beforehand. Murdoch was an average to decent promo, but had he been a great promo we would all be remembering him on the level of Dusty Rhodes or above. Superstar is the sidekick who doesn’t say [...]
Mid South Diaries: Match #104
Tuesday, August 19, 2008
Match # 104: Ted DiBiase, Dr. Death & Jim Duggan vs. Masked Superstar, Dick Murdoch & Buzz Sawyer (1/31/86) Just in the first minute you see the level of greatness you’re dealing with here. With the exception of Bill Eadie (Sorry Masked Superstar), who isn’t horrible either, this is a solid main event level gathering [...]
Mid South Diaries: Match #95
Monday, August 18, 2008
Match # 95: Ted DiBiase vs. Dick Murdoch (No DQ) (12/31/85) These two are probably my two favorite workers on the whole set. The feud that was set up between them was a great angle, and the first match was good, but it wasn’t all that I was hoping for. This one better bring the [...]
Mid South Diaries: Match #91
Monday, August 18, 2008
Match # 91: Ted DiBiase vs. Dick Murdoch (12/27/85) Why! Why would you start one of the biggest feud matches off in the middle of the match, halfway through the heat? The answer I’m sure is that you had to go to the house shows to see it, but being such a big fan of [...]
Mid South Diaries: Match #82
Saturday, August 16, 2008
Match # 82: Ted DiBiase vs. Ric Flair (11/6/85) The most famous Mid South angle and turn and here it is. This link below will get you caught up on the details leading up to the match and the match itself, but it also ties in the rise of Butch Reed and the position of [...]
