The Best Of Wrestling Feuds: The Freebirds vs. The Von Erich Family
This set features what is considered the epitome of a classic feud. One of the best feuds of all-time is the Freebirds/Von Erich feud. This is as in-depth as possible with the peak years of 1983-1984. Also included is the brief 1986 feud and the awesome Freebirds break-up angle of 1988. As a bonus, the Iceman Parsons/Buddy Roberts feud is included since it was so tied in with the Von Erich story. There are plenty of surprises and some nice rare footage from Ft. Worth that I have not seen elsewhere. The VQ ranges from G-EX. Everything is watchable and enjoyable! Watch wrestling the way it was meant to be!
