'Classy' Freddie Blassie appeared on an episode of The Dick Van Dyke Show called "The Twizzle".

It's not a "wrestling episode" but he throws down Dick Van Dyke.

I think Family Matters did, but I could be wrong.

There was a syndicated sitcom in the late-80's called "Learning The Ropes" that starred the late Lyle Alzado as a teacher who moonlighted as a wrestler. It featured then-NWA stars such as The Road Warriors, Jimmy Garvin, and Steve "Dr. Death" Williams.

There was an episode of Laverne & Shirley where Laverne was going to wrestle in an exibition only Laverne got into an arguement with her apponents and the match was on for real. Terry Butterfuco got hurt and Shirley had to sub for her.

The Munster's Herman moonlighted as a masked wrestler.

Thanks everybody for the info. It seems like alot of sitcoms had a wrestling episode. Over the years I noticed them more and more.

Billy Gunn was also on an episode of Sabrina The Teenage Witch.

The Bernie Mac Show - although one episode featured a high school wrestling match w/ Jordan on the wrestling team, Stone Cold Steve Austin appeared in that episode.

Triple H also appeared in another different episode as Bernie's neighbor that gets harassed by Jordan's practical jokes, only to join up with Bernie at the end of the episode telling Jordan "Hey Jordan: It's time to play the game!" and Jordan ends up scared senseless.



Non-sitcom shows:

The A-Team - it was a either a late S3 or early S4 episode that had Hulk Hogan guest star as a wrestler on there.

Alvin and the Chipmunks - Theodore wrestled a bigger guy named Ivan the Terrible.

Super Mario World - Mario and Luigi wrestled against two of Koopa's minions and one of his Koopalings tried to rig the match by rigging underneath the ring.

The Simpsons - Can't remember the episode title, but there was a scene where Bret "The Hitman" Hart was interested in buying Mr. Burns' mansion.

Petticoat Junction -- I believe it was a wrestling match involving a very strong guy who worked as a plumber, discovered by Uncle Joe. The Bradley sisters tossed mattresses down from upstairs outside the windows for a practice area. One of the color seasons.
