Synopsis

AWA Super Clash '85 – The Night of Champions was the first Super Clash professional wrestling supercard event promoted by the American Wrestling Association (AWA). Billed as AWA's flagship supercard and its biggest event of the year, it took place at Comiskey Park in Chicago, Illinois, on September 28, 1985, just months after WrestleMania, an event promoted by the rival WWE. The event reported a paid attendance of 20,347, though it was officially announced as 25,000. Super Clash – The Night of Champions was part of a co-promotional effort between the AWA, the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA), and World Class Championship Wrestling (WCCW), aimed at competing with WWE's growing national influence. The collaboration was part of a jointly promoted venture known as Pro Wrestling USA.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 10

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
