This week on Regional Rasslin' we begin to dive into a new project of sorts, as we take a look at the old WWA / Indianapolis territory! We are joined by Dave Dynasty of the "Wrestling Nostalgia" Podcast for this excursion, as we discuss the history of the WWA from the Fred Kohler/Jim Barnett days in Indiana, to Wilbur Snyder & Dick the Bruiser taking over the area in the 1960s. We talk the talents of Bobby Heenan and his feuds with The Bruiser and Sam Menacker, Dick the Bruiser's booking style, the Valiant Brothers, regional announcers, Bruiser invading the Detroit territory and trying to overthrow the Sheik, a failed working agreement with Jerry Jarrett in 1982, the rebranding and new stars of the 1980s, "Bruiser Bedlam" Wrestling, Dr. Jerry Graham Jr., & so much more!
