Whatever that was when I was a kid that came on after church with Gordon Solie was next level. I remember hating Dutch Mantel and Wildcat Wendell Cooley. They had serious heat with little scrawny butt.
G.L.O.W. two words: Little Egypt. hubba hubba.

Also, I contend, The Stud Stable, was ripped off by The Four Horsemen. Son, you better keep your mouth shut.

Arn was in the Stud Stable, after he was in The Horsemen.

They would even come to tiny little Coalfield. I remember Black Jack Mulligan got his head split wide open, and they didn't mess around, and took him right to Oak Ridge hospital. The Iron Sheik was the one who did it. This was around 1979, and I was 5, and it scared the shit out of me. Really good angle. Back then the Shiek had those Persian Clubs that he exercised with. Gene Anderson was his manager. They had a gimmick where any wrestler that could do it got $1,000. (This is like 20 Million today). So Mulligan comes out there one Saturday to try. He gets them up and the Sheik grabs Anderson's cane and drills him in the stomach. He then proceeds to beat his ass with a leather belt. Again, like my aforementioned Lumberjack match, there was no fake in it. You could see huge welts on BlackJack's back and this predated HD by 100 years. This triggered a pretty good feud and they had a series of Texas Street Fight matches throughout the territory. We saw one at D-B where Mulligan took off his boot that had spurs attached and ran it right down Sheiks bald head over and over. Dude earned his money that night. I contend a huge part of Crockett promotion popularity was the extremely stiff style that was mandated. Those guys came so close to real you couldn't help but believe it.

I half liked, half hated, the AWA.
Rick Martel was the worst World Champion of any organization ever. I guess the Canadians liked him though.
But they had the Freebirds. They had several old NWA guys then too.
They had the Road Whores, I mean Road Warriors too. Those faggots went to every organization at one point, some at the same time.

Championship wrestling from Florida in the early 80s was as good as it got. I was about 9 used to get scared as hell when Kevin Sullivan, maha Singh and purple haze did their demonic promo on the beach at night. Absolutely insane. That angle, Mark Lewin came right up out of the ocean as if he had just been born. There was one match where Sullivan and his posse came out there with about a dozen snakes draped all over them. Somebody hit BlackJack with one of them and then they tried to hang him with it. I seriously can't believe they let them do most of that crap back then. I saw a shoot interview with Mulligan where he said he regretted that entire angle. Said they went way to far.

Arn was in the Stud Stable, after he was in The Horsemen. Smokey Mountain Wrestling was the last great "territory". I guess you are talking about the time RnR Express brought out a mystery partner with a sheet over his head. Cornette pulls off the sheet and nearly had a heart attack when he revealed it was Arn. Maybe the funniest wrestling scene I ever saw. BTW, pretty much every thing all that has been referenced is on YouTube. Go in that hole and you won't come out until the UT game starts.

Where did you see any of that? My only knowledge of AWA comes from the Apter magazines. ESPN used to show World Class Wrestling (Texas and the Von Erich's) every afternoon. Maybe they did some AWA also?

I'm pretty much concur. The big gals frighten me. The one on the right is a tweener. The one in the middle appears to be squeezing out a fart.

My experience was far better than the half dozen or so wannabe supermodels I hooked up with. The fat girls actually want to be there.
