Pro Wrestling Time Tunnel Presents: Personalities, Territories, Towns & Buildings Episode 26, we go to Jim Crockett Promotions Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling in the year 1975.
My new Mid-Atlantic analyst and commentator is the John Hitchcock. John was a fan in the Carolinas starting in the 1960s and became a regular at the Greensboro Coliseum for some of the most legendary cards of all time. In today’s episode, John relates (as best he can) what it was like to actually see the great Johnny Valentine, one of the greatest pro wrestlers of all time and how Valentine actually put “the stare” on his one night. His story about his conversation with Wahoo McDaniel about what it was like to work against Valentine. The change from a tag team territory to a singles-driven territory with the arrival of Dan Jardine as The Super Destroyer. The plane crash with Valentine, Flair, Woods, Bruggers and David Crockett, plus the aftermath and how booker George Scott and the Crockett team dealt with the loss of its biggest star. All that and more this week as we flashback to Mid-Atlantic 1975!
