Show notes
Kris & David are joined by Beau James (@kingofkingsport) to discuss the week that was February 12-18, 1985. First and foremost, we talk about ABC’s explosive “20/20” segment on pro wrestling featuring Eddie Mansfield, Jim Wilson, John Stossel, & "Dr. D" David Shultz, including all of the controversy surrounding it. We then go over about the comings and goings in the WWF including a great weekend of business capped off by The War to Settle the Score. From there, we look at Antonio Inoki meeting Ric Flair in Hawaii, The All-New Stampede Wrestling, the debuts of Mr. J.R. & Devil Blue in Georgia, Jerry Lawler’s future as NWA World Heavyweight Champion, and BLOOD CIRCUS!!!! A tremendous show that can't be missed, so listen now!!!!
