Episode 434: One Town Per Fan

This week on STICK TO WRESTLING we review championship Wrestling From Florida during the year of 1976. Barry Rose is our guest, and he watched all of the television and attended the house shows during this time!

We talk Dusty Rhodes, Eddie Graham, Jack Brisco, Terry Funk, Gordon Solie, Superstar Billy Graham, Steve Keirn, The Assassin, Ox Baker, Bob Backlund, Bob Orton Jr, Billy Robinson, Thunderbolt Patterson, Mike Graham, Bob Roop, and much more! Also on the discussion table:

— This is the year Dusty Rhodes broke out as THE star in Florida, much like Bruno Sammartino was THE star in New York.
— Steve Keirn and Bob Roop engage in a heated and very personal feud.
— Superstar Billy Graham shows up and becomes the lead heel. —Terry Funk puts a bounty on Dusty Rhodes’ head.
— A very young Bob Backlund is here, learning the ropes and gaining experience.
— ”The Gladiator” shows up wearing a mask, but he still looks very familiar.

Episode 166: Let’s Talk Mando Guerrero And The Ramones

Stick to Wrestling is once again joined by popular co-host Scott Cornish, and there’s a lot to discuss this week:

–The career of Bobby Eaton, one of the elite in-ring performers of his generation.

–We discuss Jody Hamilton, aka The Assassin, who was one of the greatest heels in the history of the game.

–We pay tribute to the late Bert Prentice.

–From there, we take a look at an August 1988 edition of the Pro Wrestling Torch, where the publication’s readers rank all of the wrestlers based strictly on in-ring ability, not pushes or championships. Some of the results are interesting.

Plus Scott keeps bringing up The Ramones, and Johnny Mac shares his bad concert experiences with the band, so what are you waiting for? Download and listen to this wicked good bad boy!
