The Evolution of Pro Wrestling is in itself a very wild ride we are taking in the Time Tunnel. The morphing and changing of a mixture of sport, athleticism, creativity, theater and psychology.
Time Warner instead of wanting Thunder on TBS could've kept Saturday Night stronger instead saving WCW money in the long run. Even if TNT wanted to cancel Nitro in 2001, Saturday Night would stay on TBS and be the main show once again.
You have a good point Alexander and just as an old time fan of the Saturday night show I wish that would have happened. It seems like Eric Bishoff wanted to distance the company from every last bit of its former wrestling history and tradition
Great write up on one of wrestling’s most important figures ever. People don’t quite comprehend how important he was to wrestling’s health in a post-WWF expansion world.
Rich, thank you my good friend. I appreciate your kind words and I am grateful for your support. Ted gave us so much wrestling and the foundations of his structure are still with us today and still giving us wrestling as his amazing legacy continues to endure and impact the art form we love so much.
