Sean, if you're able to get Bruno again to do the 2nd reign or even one of the 70's years....I think you should ask him about his time promoting Pittsburgh.
That seems to be one aspect of his career that hasn't really been addressed in any retrospective or shoot interview.

Quoted from: SharkWrestling, February 29th, 2016 01:55 GMTWho is doing the AWA BTTT?
Just a guess, but I'd say The Baron or Larry Hennig.

Greg Gagne is doing AWA. I think Baron is doing Indianapolis.

Any idea who will be covering Don Owens Pacific Northwest Wrestling? I would have thought Roddy Piper before his untimely death. Maybe Billy Jack Haynes would be the best choice although after seeing his past RF shoots I don't know how that would end up turning out

I'd love to see Billy Jack do a KC project but I don't think Back to the Territories would work. Maybe the likes of Rip Oliver or The Grappler could take on Portland? I haven't watched any interviews with either of them though so I'm not sure how well they'd work in the environment.

I hope it turns out ok, because the AWA was my favorite. Hopefully Cornette keeps him in line, and let's him know his usual lying crap won't be tolerated.

Puerto Rico's WWC can be covered. Their first 20-25 years (1973 - 93/98).

Ive enjoyed every episode so far except for that mind numbingly boring Lance Storm episode that I gave up on about 2/3 of the way through but next seasons line up definitely has me excited
Georgia w Bill Eadie
New Japan w Stan Hansen
Amarillo w Terry Funk
That has the potential to be the best season yet

Not a Hansen or Funk fan but really looking forward to the Eadie edition.

HI Sean,
I enjoy and love hearing your product. I would like to make a suggestion for two either timelines or back to the territories projects.
A lot of people know about Mid South Wrestling but many the Tri State Wrestling the promotion which Leroy MCGuirck, Bill Watts's protégé became a star and dominant bookr.
I never heard anything positive about the wrestling promotion other than Bill Watts promoting, booking, and building the Superdome shows in the 1970's.
My Suggestion would be to choose the following people for a Tri-States project: Brian Blair, JIm Ross, Bill Watts, or maybe even Danny Hodge.
A Back to the Territories project would be 1979 where Watts divided from McGuirck to form Mid South in Louisiana and Mississippi.
How both Watts and McGuirck' had a dispute and how Tri-States degenerated and how Mid South survived and prospered.
You can talk about what "stars" Tri States kept and the people that Bill Watts took to form Mid South.
You could talk about the dynamic and economics of each promotion.
You can also talk about the initially the end of Tri States Wrestling where they worked with the Amarillo territory and having George Scott from Mid Atlantic to book the territory
They brought in Paul Jones, Jimmy Snuka, and George Wells (Master Gee in WWF) to save the promotion in 1982.
They also had Tri State bookers from general Skandor Akbar, Brian Blair, and even Pretty Boy Sommers.
You can also have a Mid South 1980 describing Watts full year of running his own wrestling promotion.
just a suggestion.
