Complete and Accurate Jose Lothario


Jose Lothario is best known as Shawn Michaels' mentor in a 1995 WWF angle, but with the release of the NWA 24/7 Classics footage he is looking like a hidden legendary brawler. There is so much cool Houston footage to sift through, and hopefully I will find some non-Houston gems floating around the internet. Like always matches are ranked EPIC, GREAT, FUN and SKIPPABLE

1974

Jose Lothario v. Great Mephisto  Houston 1/18/74 - FUN

1978

Jose Lothario/Alberto Madril v. Dick Murdoch/Killer Brooks Houston 3/31/78 - GREAT

1979

Jose Lothario vs. Gino Hernandez Houston 1/9/79 - EPIC
Jose Lothario/El Halcon vs. Spoiler/Mark Lewin Houston 6/1/79 - GREAT

1983

Jose Lothario vs. Tonga John WCCW 11/19/83 - FUN

Jose Lothario is Working, but he is Not Working for You Slack Motherfucker

Jose Lothario v. Black Gordman NWA Houston 1/13/84 -EPIC

I loved this, I described this to Eric as the worlds greatest Eddie Marlin v. Tommy Gilbert match. Two badass old guys with awesome punches making each other bleed. Gordman jumps Lothario at the bell and busts him open with a chain, and from their it is all old dudes throwing hambones, Lothario is awesome, he is pretty much all punches, but he has a bunch of different punches including a fun hook and a big bolo uppercut, and he knows how to time everything right. Gordman has this huge rep, and while he is clearly in the twilight, he still has a presence.
