"The Night the Twin Cities Shook!" – AWA Super Sunday 1983 Blu-Ray

Before WrestleMania became a global phenomenon, the American Wrestling Association set the standard for the modern wrestling supercard. Held on April 24, 1983, in front of 20,000 fans at a sold-out St. Paul Civic Center, AWA Super Sunday was a monumental closed-circuit television event that defined an era. This custom physical release captures the complete card from the legendary Minnesota territory, bringing the magic of 1980s professional wrestling straight to your collection.

From Verne Gagne coming out of retirement to the chaotic, highly controversial main event, this broadcast is a must-have piece of wrestling history featuring classic commentary by Rod Trongard and ring introductions by "Mean" Gene Okerlund.

What's Included in the Archive:

• The Infamous Dusty Finish: Witness the unforgettable main event where Hulk Hogan seemingly dethroned Nick Bockwinkel for the AWA World Heavyweight Championship, only for special guest referee Lord James Blears to reverse the decision and break the hearts of the roaring crowd.
