Today in Wrestling History July 17th
1965 - The Assassins (Guy Mitchell and Joe Tomasso) defeat Boris and Nicoli Volkoff to win the WWA World Tag Team Title in Indianapolis, Indiana.
1970 - The Fabulous Kangaroos (Al Costello and Don Kent) defeat Dick the Bruiser and Bill Miller for the WWA World Tag Team Title in Indianapolis, Indiana.
1983 - Ron Garvin defeats The Iron Sheik in Atlanta, Georgia to win the NWA National Television Title.
1988 - Frank "Bruiser Brody" Goodish, died at Centro Médico de San Juan in Puerto Rico, hours after a stabbing attack from José "Invader I" González, in a shower at a WWC event in Bayamón.
1990 - Terry Gordy defeats Stan Hansen for the AJPW Triple Crown Title in Ishikawa, Japan, beginning his second reign. He had to vacate the title 10 days later after being hospitalized after an overdose on painkillers.
1994 - WCW held their first Bash At The Beach Pay-per-view at the Orlando Arena, in Florida. This show would mark the beginning of a major change in WCW philosophy, as it featured the WCW PPV in-ring debut of Hulk Hogan. This was also the first-ever PPV singles meeting of Hogan and Ric Flair. Their previous singles matches had only been held on WWF house shows.
Here are the results of the show:
- In a dark match, Brian (BG James/Road Dogg) & Brad Armstrong defeated Steve Keirn & Bobby Eaton.
- WCW Television Champion Steven (William) Regal defeated Johnny B. Badd when Regal reversed a sunset flip and held the trunks for the pin.
- Antonio Inoki was presented with an award for his contributions to wrestling. Regal briefly confronted Inoki, before backing off.
- Vader, with Harley Race, defeated The Guardian Angel (Big Bossman) via disqualification when the referee caught Angel with a nightstick, even though Race had brought it into the ring, and Angel never actually used it.
- Terry Funk & Bunkhouse Buck, with Col. Robert Parker & Meng, defeated Dustin Rhodes & Arn Anderson when Funk pinned Rhodes after Arn turned on him and gave him a DDT.
- WCW United States Champion Steve Austin defeated Ricky Steamboat by putting his feet on the ropes for leverage.

- Hulk Hogan, with Shaquille O'Neil, Jimmy Hart & Mr. T in his corner, defeated Ric Flair, with Sherri Martel, to win the WCW World Heavyweight Title. Martel was carried off by Mr. T during the match. The bout ended when Hogan "hulked up" after a brass knuckles shot, and delivered a big boot to the face and a legdrop for the win (I know, shocking).
2000 - The Monday Night War took a week off, as WWF RAW is WAR aired unopposed. WCW Monday Nitro was pushed to Tuesday night due to TNT's two-part miniseries "Nuremberg". RAW got a 6.2 rating on USA, and the results were:
