I used to watch both WWF & WCCW wrestling here in Massachusetts growing up, but I don't know how many other longtime WWF fans did.


I often thought that when they mentioned David's passing on WWF TV alot of fans were probably not familiar with him and said "Who?!?"

World Class was huge in Boston. I think it started in early 83 on Channel 25. If i recall correctly it was on in between two WWF shows. I think WWF was on channel 56 or 38. World Class started in Boston around the time the David Von Erich / Jimmy Garvin feud started. It was the first time you saw vignettes like Garvin washing David Von Erich's dogs on his farm. It was not long that WWF followed up with Vignettes from Million Dollar Man. WWF had dabbled in this with Playboy Buddy Rose but it became more common in World Class and then WWF really went all in on it

 WWF wrestling aired on Channel 56 just before Creature Double Feature.
