Mat Memory- Kerry Von Erich vs. Greg Valentine - Missouri State Title (Japanese Commentary)

From February 11, 1983.  Von Erich defends the NWA Missouri State Title against Greg Valentine on a card that saw Ric Flair and Bruiser Brody go to a 60 minute Broadway.  This footage, as is quickly apparent, came from Japanese television.  All-Japan was on hand that night to capture Giant Baba winning the PWF title from Harley Race.

It should also be noted that Valentine was at this time the United States champion in the Mid-Atlantic region, making this a match between the holders of what were widely considered the two most prestigious regional belts in the NWA during this era.
