You said Bill Watts didn't care much for his Wrestlers to be seen as friends?? Well, this case was proven wrong. On 1 Monday night at the Civic Auditorium in Chalmette. LA. Killer Karl Cox had a grueling match with Dick Murdock was seen across the street at Dunkin Donuts having coffee and donuts together So it's not all truth that they couldn't be seen outside the venue as friends

@garyperkins3208 Monroe, Louisiana had a Mid-South event one Saturday night a month for years. Around 1984ish I was at the Monroe Civic Center with my uncle and cousin and we were walking to the truck which was parked around the back after the show. I be damned if we didn't see The Junk Yard Dog and Ted DiBiase get into Ted's 280ZX with Mississippi plates, which is where they lived! Lol...

Mid-South was my home promotion & I watched them in tv every Saturday in Oklahoma City & attended the matches live at The Myriad Convention Center. A MAJOR part of the downfall of Mid-South had nothing to do with Watts himself or the switch to UWF in response to McMahon's dirty dealings to create a monopoly. A BIG part of it was the oil bust in that part of the country in the mid-late 1980s. Oil was promising to go gangbusters & people thought "holy shit, we're gonna be just like Texas!"... and then it dried up. I graduated in 1985 & went straight into the Air Force simply because it was the only way to guarantee having a job for the next 4 years. I literally remember going down SE 29th street in Del City(a suburb of OKC) and walking into one place of business & filling out a job application. Then, I went next door to the next business & filled out an application... and the next... and the next... Back then, you took ANY job that would have you & you held onto it no matter what. Period. Not alot of 'expendable income' in those days for your average "'rasslin' fan". Real world info from someone who was THERE.

Mid-South had a lot of great booking moments. One of my favorites is the "Loser Leaves the Territory for 90 Days" match between DiBiase and Borne vs. Mr Olympia and JYD. Putting Borne in the match last second in place of Duggan makes you think Borne will be losing. Then Duggan coming out in a gorilla costume to screw JYD and cause him to lose and leave was awesome booking. Then Watts bringing in "Stagger Lee" until JYD could return was entertaining as well.😁

@@DaveKnowsWrestling Nah, the poison came straight from the top. Turner's idea was to steal all McMahon's stars, leaving him with no ratings and finally going bankrupt. WCW never made money, it wasn't intended to, it was just intended to drive WWF out of business. Once that happened, WCW would reduce the salaries of the wrestlers and meanwhile increase the low ad rates (that made people place ads with WCW instead of WWF; same thing McMahon had done to drive the regional promotions out of business). Turner's plan depended on McMahon's ratings tanking, but that never happened because he came up with the Attitude Era and created new stars. Once that happened, WCW was through, because there was no longer any hope of recouping the huge financial losses it had sustained trying to drive WWF out of business.
