I remember this promotion. I talk to Gil on Facebook quite often. He talks about these days. I also remember Championship Wrestling(TriStates) because that was shown on a New Orleans channel.

Here are the cards I have from the first quarter of 1978 not previously listed in this topic. Notes: -when "plus one (or two) other bout(s)" is listed, they are usually prelim matches involving participants from an advertised tag team match -when the Mongolians (Tio & Tapu) work on different shows on the same night, most of the time the ads in both towns list "Mongolian #1". Since there's no way of knowing who was who, I have simply listed them as "Mongolian" in those cases and left off the #1 or #2 1/2/78 Meridian MS Great Mephisto vs Grizzly Smith Special challenge, 10 minutes with no referee: Eddie Sullivan vs Tony Gonzales Mr Ito vs Terry Gordy 1/2/78 Vicksburg MS Cage match: Phil Watson vs Pretty Boy Collins Arman Hussein & Bill Ash vs Hippie Graham & Tom Shaft

Al, any idea who this Mr. Ito is? In the Hattiesburg listing for 1/5/1978, it lists a "Masao Ito", but he was in All-Japan during this time frame. Last edited on Thu May 21st, 2020 09:07 pm by cman73 |
