8. They Wrestled A 5 Star Match In 1986
http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6j6dj_bushwhackers-sheepherders-vs-the-fa_sport Still known as the Sheepherders at this point, the team would face off regularly against The Fantastics (Bobby Fulton and Tommy Rogers) during the mid-1980s. In the first ever Jim Crockett Memorial Tag Team Cup, the two teams would compete in a match that Dave Meltzer declared to be a 5 Star Match. The prize for the tournament was $1 million that The Road Warriors would eventually win. The Sheepherders and The Fantastics both failed to advance due to double disqualification by the referee. The bout was called for being too out of control. The match was physical, fast, and bloody. While feuding with the Fantastics in UWF the two teams would compete in 37 barbed-wire cage matches. It was a vastly different style from the more comical shtick that the duo would represent years later.
