Shawn Michaels' Career Almost Crash Lands Before It Takes Off: "The Territories: Kansas City" Preview A!
Order "The Territories: Kansas City" today! DVD: Joe-Dombrowski.com VOD: ProWrestlingLibrary.com
Watch the official trailer here:
In the spring of 1985, a young rookie Shawn Michaels was trying to get noticed. His athleticism, passion, and willingness to put his body on the line were all traits he'd become known for as a top star, but were evident even back then. Unfortunately, in this match with Super Destroyer, Shawn found out the hard-way why they call it "high risk", as a dive over the top rope to the unprotected floor goes terribly wrong. As if that wasn't dangerous enough, Super D follows it up by hitting Shawn with a rare form of a piledriver the likes of which you surely wouldn't see today. As an Easter egg, and a sign of things to come, notice one of the men who comes to check on Shawn is Marty Jannetty. The two would team for the first time just weeks later, eventually forming The Midnight Rockers and, later, The Rockers.
