1986 is one of Karl Stern’s favorite years in pro wrestling and that is why he is really excited about his latest book coming out this March covering 1986 and 1987 in pro wrestling history.
On today’s DragonKingKarl Show, Karl talks about that and the very first issue of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter for 1986.
A bit of what’s on today’s show:
- WWF launches two great TV shows: Superstars and Challenge
- Jim Crockett Promotions and the NWA are red hot with Dusty Rhodes chasing NWA World Champion Ric Flair and the rise (and tragic fall) of Magnum TA
- The AWA is still hanging in there with new World Champion Stan Hansen (pictured above)
- He then looks at the first WON of the year from January 13, 1986
