Fantastics/Sheepherders
By Scott Keith on 23 June 2019
Watched Crockett Cup 86 and really enjoyed the Fantastics vs Sheepherders brawl.
Was there ever any consideration for this version of the Sheepherders to appear in the WWE instead of the kid friendlier version?
Is size the main reason The Fantastics never had a run in the WWE. I feel cheated we never got a Hart Foundation vs Fantastics match.
Also, Bruce Pritchard was doing the ring announcing for this show. I didn’t even know that was a thing.
God, I gotta watch this show.
Yeah, Bruce started out as a ring announcer.
Fantastics were definitely too small for Vince. I don't think they even got a call from the WWF.
And no, the Sheepherders were always envisioned as the wacky comedy act. They were quite happy to collect the merch money and have easier matches night after night, from what I understand.
