Bill Apter doesn't get the love he should. Pre-Internet, his magazine was one of the few sources for inside information from the wrestling industry.

@takerdust 3 года назад

i liked how their articles wrote in kayfabe. Hell, even WWF and WCW mags did same (to a point).

@bilklein 2 года назад

Much of which he made up, but I liked reading about wrestlers from other territories and would know who they were when they came to mine (AWA).

I always wonder when they had that Feud midnight vs. Midnight why didn't they bring in Novell Austin as a substitute being that he was a original member and Dennis Condrey had to leave for personal reasons? Not saying Jake Victory didn't do a great job but that would have been a surprise to the fan if had Austin had a showed up.

1) Someone didn't fact check and wanted to get himself over. 2) REALLY? You forgot Mid-South, Wonderful Willie. 3) Cornette actually beat Baby Doll at some point? 5) Tully and Arn left the NWA, they were supposed to face the Midnights (not quite sure if 3 on 3) in the cage -- this became the backup main event. (Another of Cornette's NWA deep dives.)
