I can't seem to get YouTube to work properly on my phone eight now but the Chicago film archive has uploaded a while lot of Chicago televised wrestling from the 50s and 60s.

Man, there are some great names in there. Verne Gagne, a Lou Thesz vs Buddy Rogers match, Killer Kowalski, Dick the Bruiser, Gorgeous George, Pat O'Connor, Red Bastien. There are a load of guys in there that I've only ever heard of.

Bryan & Vinny (?) talk about a Kerry Von Erich WWF match in 1992 in which he turns up in "no condition to perform" at MSG. Match footage is included..

It actually looks to me like his face is mostly exposed before he jumps, as is that of the guy nearest the front who appears to be wearing similar designed gear & mask, but with pink highlights (tag partner?). Not sure if it's a gimmick or if they've done the old lucha grudge match "rip the mask" thing.

 

Regardless, that's insane. Doing that onto a "crash pad" of tables, or even the WWE-style actual crash pad boxed in with balsa wood would be crazy, but to do it and expect three guys to break your fall is asinine. Someone's getting badly hurt there, even if you get it 'right'.
