Yeah Chris didn’t make it to long unfortunately

 

[King Kong Booty]

That Dark Side of the Ring was wild

 

[Chris]

Almost all of my interaction with WCCW is just various tragedy documentaries and old people here reminiscing about the mid 80s being the best time of their lives

 

[Barry Poppins]

WCCW was very good in the early 80s tbh

 

[Barry Poppins]

Really before David dies

 

[Chris]

They had like a year where they were doing the best attendance in the world

 

[King Kong Booty]

Yeah the ESPN stuff was an older by a year or so I believe. But lot of Freebirds, Missing Link, Von Eric’s, Hollywood John Tatum etc

ESPN Classics used to play the real shitty late 80s AWA and early 90s GWF in like 2008, I used to watch that shit every week

 

[Barry Poppins]

AWA had really good shows also in the early 80s

 

[Barry Poppins]

Though they hung out a bit longer than WCCW did as far as good booking goes

 

[Barry Poppins]

Really after 1987 it was over for them

 

[King Kong Booty]

GWF was pretty wild
