I love that you guys don’t pound us with ads on these.

“It’s brutal if you have a wrestling match with no people.” Jim Cornette predicting the future..

At one time AWA's all star wrestling had higher ratings than 60 minutes in the Twin Cities, Chicago& Milwaukee

Every time I think of studio wrestling, I think of David Crockett saying "we're out of time Tony" and then fade to black.

Born raised in Tennessee, and when I was a kid, Jerry Lawler was the baddest man walking, you couldn’t tell anyone in my family he wasn’t or someone could beat him. You knew, when the King dropped that strap, it was about to be over👊🏻 this is my favorite show so far. Thanks for this great look back.

I love the intimacy of studio wrestling. It's like seeing a band in a small club opposed to a large concert arena. It's in your face and you hear every slap and grunt.

Studio wrestling blows away anything today. Weekly squash matches and promos with guys like Roger Kents constant color banter. 🗣🎶its not the kill...its the thrill of the chase.

The Terry Funk impression was dead on 😂

NWA 86-87 when the Midnight would be squashing in the Techwood studio, and Cornette would walk back and forth non-stop talking trash on the mic with Tony to talking trash in the face of the Midnight’s opponent. JJ would do the same with the Horsemen. That was some of the best studio wresting

Studio wrestling made sense. There were interviews. The way wrestling is presented now makes no sense. Why are there cameras back stage? Why do wrestlers come into the ring to talk about things?

"It's brutal if you have a wrestling match with no people..."

My brother and I lived for the studio wrestling! We'd get home from school and turn on wrestling. Forget cartoons, Rick Flair and the Horsemen were doing a promo monologue! Even though Flair did the same routine over and over in the ring ad nauseum, no one could beat him at the promos. There was something more intense about promos in the studio setting that just didn't seem to come across when done in the ring in front of a crowd of thousands.

Florida studio wrasslin' in Tampa ruled. Kevin Sullivan jacked Kendall Windham in the face with a broken lightbulb at

Some of the funniest segments occurred with the Midnight Express and the Fantastics. When they slammed Jim's head into a birthday cake and Stan went slipping and sliding. Another when Cornette got stuck in the desk, podium thing and you were struggling to get out, classic. I grew up on Saturday night

First episode of Detroit I saw was the Funk/Lewin eps with the cage around the announcers. Fkn classic.

In the 1960s, the broad Pittsburgh area had a show called Studio Wrestling. It was the tv show for the Tri-State (PA< OH, and WV) that was owned by Bruno Sammartino. The name was so ingrained that for the next 20 years, people in the area referred to all professional wrestling as "Studio wrestling." .

Ag hall in Allentown is still there lot of history in that little building.

Cornette isnt lying when he says, Mario Galento looks like a pirate.

I was lucky as a kid in the mid to late 70's in Upstate NY. We got cable early because of foul weather testing. We got wrestling from Atlanta, Dallas, Montreal, and Detroit. A few other places at random times.

I watched studio wrestling in Memphis throughout my whole childhood. In my 20s I moved there for a job and would go whenever I could. I remember how TINY the studio was the first time I went, but it was surreal. Of all the wrestling shows that are gone, I miss that one the most, by far.
