Kris & David are joined by Mike Sempervive (@Sempervive) to discuss the weeks that were March 4-17, 1985 as we finally get caught up to our usual schedule after our real-life induced backlog of shows. We talk about some odd shows in the Northeast under the Pro Wrestling USA banner with a bunch totally different looks and lineups, as well asthe new talent entering JCP such as Arn Anderson & Buddy Landel. Speaking debuts, we discuss the debut of the Road Warriors in All Japan and how big of a phenomenon they were before they even wrestled there. We also talk about Ole Anderson's surprise for Mr. J.R., Mike Graham's tastless angle with the Freebirds in Florida, Poffomania turning heel and running wild as Tux Newman’s new charges in Memphis, Terry Taylor becoming a double champion in Mid-South, the WWF getting ready for WrestleMania with Hulk Hogan & Mr. T showing up live at the TBS studio on Techwood Drive in Atlanta, and much more. A tremendous show, so you’d best not miss it!!!!
