We talk about the towns the promotion ran and some of the interesting ways they crowned champions there (not with belts or trophies). Then, as we did recently with Beau James, we talk about the travails of being a wrestling historian, covering a business that's built on a lie. How hard is it to get “accurate” data on things like shows, box office and the like? And Al talk us through his methodology, both online and boots on the ground research. We chat about Al being inducted into the Tragos/Thesz Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame in Waterloo, Iowa, getting the James C. Melby Historian Award. The show ends with some quick baseball chat, with the season just a week old and Al's Atlanta Braves being the only National League East team with a winning record. He also tells us about his first road trip of the year and dealing with weather issues with early spring baseball in the Midwest. And the next episode of the Charting the Territories will look at Dick the Bruiser's WWA in Indianapolis coming next week.

On this episode of What Happened When, Tony and Conrad take us back to 2001 when WCW folded and the trio of Nasty Boy Brian Knobbs, Jimmy Hart and Greg Valentine tried to come up with an alternative to the WWF the XWF! Though it had many big names, it never found a home. This episode was suggest by LKBH DJ Turn Upof Stone Mountain, Georgia who wrote: "...I'm choosing the XWF Episode 1.... I chose this because this is a time that is never talked about by Tony or anybody. I'm interested to see what Tony remembers (or doesn't remember) about his brief moment in the XWF...." Well, this one should be interesting as well as entertaining. Thanks, DJ! Here's the link to the Episode https://youtu.be/aSapLUHjySU The second podcast comes from LKBH Brooke McGaugh of Shreveport, Louisiana. She is also the adopted daughter of Tony and Lois Schiavone, even though Tony did not approve of her marriage to Patrick. (Just kidding, Lois loves Patrick). Where were we? Oh, yeah...anyway...Brooke's choice was from WrestleMania 38: "...The reason I choose this match is because it was fun and really showed the entertainment of wrestling. I remember watching this match and just having a blast from the giant hand slapping Sami Zayn to Wee Man body slamming Zayn. Overall, one of my favorite matches I have watched over the past few years and had a lot of fun with it..." Brooke is right. You may like this or hate it, but you cannot deny it was a lot of fun to watch. BLUECHEW - Try BlueChew FREE when you use our promo code WHW at checkout--just pay $5 shipping.
