Description
English: From the days of Tri-X 400: Classic wrestling shot of André the Giant giving his "size 20" boot to King Kong Bundy. At center-left in the white, three-starred pants is Big John Studd while standing outside the ring at far-right is Hillbilly Jim. Referee Dick Kroll watches from the far left. In this October 21, 1985 tag-team match at Madison Square Garden, André the Giant and Hillbilly Jim along with manager Captain Lou Albano (unpictured) were the "face" team (i.e., the "good guys") while King Kong Bundy and Big John Studd and manager Bobby "The Brain" Heenan (visible under André the Giant's crotch in the background) were the "heel" team (i.e., the "bad guys"). The match ended in a double-disqualification. The kick occurs at 13:55 in this video recording, 13 minutes 40 seconds after the ring of the bell to start the match (although the fighting erupted before the bell). Color commentary for the television broadcast was provided by Gorilla Monsoon and Jesse "The Body" Ventura, who played the parts of the face and heel advocates, respectively.
