DragonKingKarl Classic Wrestling Podcast: Hogan, Flair, Martel & the beginning of 1985

I begin my methodical look back at pro wrestling in 1985, kicking off with January and using all the info from my DragonKingKarl’s 1984-1985 Pro Wrestling Omnibus.

As you might remember or might be learning, Hulk Hogan was entering his first full year as WWF World champion and also was a huge star in Japan, Ric Flair was the NWA World champion and looking forward to a big year and Rick Martel was the AWA World champion and feuding with Jimmy Garvin.

Plus, I talk about the Road Warriors, Antonio Inoki, and much more.
