!BANG! TV Report – WWE Hall of Fame Inductee, Antonio Inoki vs Dory Funk Jr.
A meeting was arranged in Las Vegas in the fall of 1969. At the meeting was Japan Pro Wrestling Representative, Charley Moto, my father, Dory Funk Sr., NWA President, Sam Muchnick and Myself. Mr. Moto made a financial offer to NWA President Sam Muchnick and I for the NWA World Championship Match, Dory Funk Jr. vs Antonio Inoki and we accepted. We took him at his word as in those days there were no contracts.
