Well, these don’t do great, but I love watching them.

I feel like I abandoned this run after just doing the one show, so we’ll pick it up again. Again, please note that dates are off by a week on these due to indexing silliness, so this would actually be the January 4 show.

Yeah, so they just dumped a shitload more Mid-Atlantic onto the Network, 43 episodes in total, and now I can jump to the year that’s more in my wheelhouse: 1986. For context’s sake, we’re well past the point when Crockett’s crew has taken over TBS from Vince again after Black Saturday, and this is quickly going to become the lame duck show after World Championship Wrestling and Worldwide Wrestling.
Seriously though, why no Worldwide?
And for our cold open, we’ve got Don Kernodle putting a headlock on Dennis Condrey in a singles match! THAT’S GOOD SHIT!

I just figured it might be fun to jump back to 1982 again with these, and the main event here is pretty intriguing.

Haven’t checked out of these out in a bit, so let’s get back into it.

So I wanted to go back to Mid-Atlantic, but the tag team tournament was boring the pants off me, so let’s jump ahead to the era we’re all more familiar with, starting in early 1985!
We’re now in an arena instead of the studio shows from the earlier run.

OK, we’re now caught up with Mid-South, so now I can start alternating between Bill Watts and Jim Crockett! Between this and Daniel Bryan returning, I’m in jaded wrestling geek HEAVEN.

Your hosts are Bob Caudle & David Crockett. David talks about how much they value the opinions of the fans and appreciate them watching and telling them what they want to see. What the hell kind of attitude is that? How can you run a successful promotion without telling the idiot marks what they want to see and then screwing them out of what they ask for?
