I was watching 80's GCW on youtube, reliving my youth and discovered some interesting tag teams of old.
Georgia National Tag Team Champions - TEERY GORDY & JIMMY SNUKA I did remember but on 09-12-81 they defended the titles in the Omni against MICHAEL HAYES & KEVIN VON ERICH! WOW!! Obviously pre WCCW feud.
Best jobber name ever, IZZY SLAPPOWITZ for Isreal
On this show was NWA World Champion Dusty Rhodes, Harley Race, Ric Flair, Masked Superstar, Tommy Rich, Terry Gordy - Jimmy Snuka, Michael Hayes - Kevin Von Erich, Mr. Wrestling II and MANY others. GCW was legit!
On another episode, I also saw a jobber mid card team of DENNIS CONDREY & STAN LANE, well before either teamed with Bobby Eaton as the Midnight Express.

I've watched Georgia off and on on Youtube.....one of the underrated feuds in wrestling was Masked Superstar vs Tommy Rich. Hayes teaming up with Von Erich led the Freebirds eventually coming to World Class. Georgia was really hot there for a while but a combination of overexpansion and Ole's personality probably cost the fed in the end.
