Territorial #26: Ole Anderson Heel Turn GCW 1980

In the Summer of 1980, Dusty Rhodes wanted Ole Anderson to be his partner in a Tag Team match against the Assassins.

Ole had been on the face side for over a year at this point, but what transpired in a cage match at the Omni set up an amazing story of a year long plot that included the likes of Stan Hansen, Ivan Koloff, Gene Anderson, Tommy Rich, Tony Atlas and more as Ole earned the trust of many and lost the trust of his fellow heels to ultimately take down Dusty Rhodes.

This angle had repercussions that went on for the next 7 years and you could even say it had a hand in creating the Four Horseman in 1985. Its Ole Andersons heel turn on Dusty Rhodes from GCW in the Summer of 1980! Give it a listen!
