It’s that time of the week when everyone waits with baited breath for information on the latest Hidden Gem offering. Well, WWE Network News has you covered as we have exclusive details on what’s next for the unique WWE category.

WWE is going patriotic with July 4th just a week away and taking us to the early 80’s with a match from WWF Championship Wrestling between a young Jim Duggan and Sgt Slaughter dated 01/03/1981. While the Championship Wrestling series itself isn’t exactly rare (with extensive full episode playlists appearing on YouTube thanks to WWE’s old Classics on Demand service) this particular match (and the episode it comes from) does seem to be harder to find. Whether that’s because the WWE Network team has dug deep or WWE has just struck many old tapes down due to copyright is hard to say.

Whatever the case may be, this 9-minute video is a definite curiosity. While Jim Duggan vs Sgt Slaughter sounds like an epic clash of legends in their prime, that really isn’t the case in early 1981. While Slaughter was big as a heel with his Cobra Clutch challenge, Duggan was less than 2 years into his career and hadn’t even made his name in Mid-South yet. For lack of a better term, Jim Duggan was an enhancement talent.

Here is WWE’s official title and description for the upcoming hidden gem:

American Pride

Two of WWE’s most patriotic Superstars collide when the militant Sgt. Slaughter faces off against Hacksaw Jim Duggan.

As a reminder, this match will be added to the WWE Hidden Gems category within the Vault section tomorrow morning at roughly 10 AM EST.
