I really want to post up again, for you old time wrestling fans. The Tales from the territories have been outstanding, with episodes focusing around Memphis , AWA CWF etc They've gathered great panels and story tellers.

But the latest episode on Stampede Wrestling was great and probably could have been hours longer. With a panel of David Schultz, Abdullah the Butcher, Bret and No Class Bobby Bass, it was clear that these guys all loved and respected Stu.

But it covered some of the classic ribs, think the Infamous Mabel Party. Bret talking about how he got smarted up to the business, and of course the feud between Archie Gouldie and Bad News Allen that killed the territory.

Overall I didn't learn much new, because I lived through Stampede Wrestling and there are several outstanding books on the territory. But Schultz and Abbie are outstanding story tellers, and that makes it a must watch.
