The Wrestling Memory Grenade

We're back with a special hybrid episode of the Grenade as we begin to look at August TV for 1987 in the WWF, then from there I have a little fun playing "What If?" as I fantasy book a SUMMERSLAM 87 card featuring the final match of "Living Legend" Bruno Sammartino! Topics on WWF TV this week include the first ever WWF Posedown competition between Superstar Graham and Butch Reed, the debut of "Ravishing' Rick Rude, The Million Dollar Man evicts honeymooners, Bobby Heenan removes the neck brace, Sherri Martel the NEW Women's Champion, a Macho Powerbomb, the J.Y.Bee, Brutus "The Stylist" Beefcake, Outback Jack talks the Mongolian Mist, Koko gets a t-shirt, plus Tag Champs Hart Foundation defend against Rick Martel & Junkyard Dog. All of that and soundbites galore!
