What's the biggest match you've had in your career? Like for me, I remember like freaking out because, oh my God, I'm gonna wrestle Rick Martel and like be like, "I'm not either ready to do this," or like, you know, I was, I wrestled so many bigger names when I just came off, you know, starting my career.
Tommy DreamerHOST
But for you, what was like your big, your biggest match or your biggest opponent?

Frank CulbertsonHOST
And that's a great, great story.
Frank CulbertsonHOST
But for me, one of my favorite memories in the later Portland Sports Arena era was Rick Martell and Roddy Piper in a real bloody mess against the Sheepherders in a tag team match.
Frank CulbertsonHOST
I was in May of 1980.
Frank CulbertsonHOST
The person that I would then marry a couple months later, she had bought me tickets for my birthday, and we went.

They definitely put his looks over big time.
Nikita BreznikovHOST
Well, Cal Rudman, it was Tony Gurria and Rick Martel, yes.
Nikita BreznikovHOST
And he said, they don't do anything for me, their looks.
Nikita BreznikovHOST
But he said, man, and what Dick Ram would say, well, I told Tony Gurria, if you ever go to Hollywood, I'll be your agent, man, without a doubt.

8 MINS LATER
Greg CherryGUEST
Yeah.
Greg CherryGUEST
Out of 100.
Juice SpringsteenGUEST
yeah yeah I was thinking like yeah maybe low mid 80s but it was a strong one and we start off uh pretty strong I think with the TV title on the line we got all we got the new champion Rick Martel defending against a Booker T so they did the TV title at this point's been hot potatoed a little bit yeah Disco had it for a little bit and then Saturn had it and then I believe I believe Booker beat Saturn and then Martel beat Booker on Nitro.
Juice SpringsteenGUEST
And then so there was a kind of a convoluted thing on the past Nitro where Perry Saturn was supposed to face Disco Inferno.
Stefan BennettHOST
And I think that when an audience, uh, especially a live audience, they care that enough about a snake, [laughs] um, the, and to the point where the promotion can actually build a whole revenge storyline around what happened to it, you've created something extraordinary.
Stefan BennettHOST
Um, and you know, and then we would move on to one of the most infamous WrestleMania matches at WrestleMania VII where Jake would face the model Rick Martel in the now infamous blindfold match where both men were blindfolded and had to locate one another.
Stefan BennettHOST
And the concept did fit Jake's character perfectly.
Stefan BennettHOST
It wasn't about technical wrestling, it was about sound, instinct, uncertainty, fear, and Jake won that match.
Stefan BennettHOST
But the way-
Mike McGuireHOST

Bradley PalermoHOST
It was Rick Martel, the model Rick Martel, champion, AWA champion, versus Steve Hansen and Stan Hansen.

I feel like they're fighting everywhere, all over the ballpark, everywhere except for the ring.
