Kris Zellner is joined again by John McAdam (Stick to Wrestling) to discuss Volumes 6 and 7 of his Wrestling from the 80's video collection. We continue our series with a focus mainly on 1981 as we talk about Tommy Rich becoming NWA Champion, Verne Gagne retiring as AWA Champion, the greatness of Sgt. Slaughter, Magnificent Muraco, & Ken Patera, Terry Gordy & Jimmy Snuka's run as a tag team in Georgia, Bruno Sammartino's retirement match, Ric Flair becoming NWA Champion, Bob Backlund's great run of 1981-82 and tons more.
