3 of us. I couldn't imagine the 2 top performers at WWE putting in an hour and half in a steel cage today.

Lucha Underground is having one match for an hour next week.

I'm trying to think the last time there was even an one hour match on a whole show. Flair vs Windham I think from 87?

Bret and Shawn at Mania XII and Triple H and the Rock in (I think) 2000 on some PPV.

Didn't really watch WWF after 2001 or so, but I'm sure there have been some since the two I mentioned. But yeah, good ones are rare

Link to info about ICW. I was at the May 22, 1981 show. I went to a few others but that cage match really stuck out in my memory.

There is a story about the Macho man tangling with a police dog in Nashville, Tennessee told by Dutch Mantell on that site.

"Hello everybody, this is Lance Russell and Dave Brown right along ringside, and by-golly Dave what a card we have today"

Lance was great.

My dad and his friends from work used to go to Louisville Gardens during the week when they taped the show. He had a friend he worked with that was a little off center named Mike (Vietnam vet with bad stories) that would go with them. Eddie Gilbert did the typical heel stuff of talking down to the crowd and was looking in Mikes direction. Mike wasn't wrapped right and fell for it and started whipping up on hot stuff and Dad and his friends ended up banned from Louisville Gardens.

Still get a kick out of that and making fun of him for it.
