"Been going through some early 80's territories stuff and so far have been really enjoying Mid Atlantic Championship Wrestling with Piper, Slaughter, Jake Roberts, Ole Anderson etc. Just some really good stuff all around."

[8.0] "Good years and bad years ~ good seasons and bad seasons. One of the more glaring victims of Vince McMahon plundering the territories (also one of the earliest). On television is was a promo heavy territory and flirted with being straight up boring at times. At the arenas it was one of the most electric and intense places to be. How do I not have permanent hearing damage from attending those house shows at a young age? Seriously, it could get so loud, that you would go home with everything above the neck hurting. Bob Caudle was so smooth and velvet in his tone that you forgave him for saying Black Bart was "6'9" and David Crockett was LOL! David Crockett! After Dusty Rhodes became the booker, things spiced things up considerably and he saved the company from looming obscurity. Just as the company was at their hottest though (with The Four Horsemen, The Midnight Express, The Road Warriors and others) the company went belly up due to debts. In many ways, Rhodes killed the company just as much as he brought it back to life; not only with his financial decisions but also booking himself as the GOD of the territory and the overwhelming, unescapable wrath of the "Dusty Finish". Oh yah, points deducted for all of that endless Paul Jones/Jimmy Valiant stuff. BARF! What I love I fkn adore but I won't pretend like the flaws were excruciating."

[9.0] "The precursor to WCW. I missed the glory days of JCP because we didn't get cable until 1988 and by then they were just about to sell to Turner. With the benefit of compilation DVDs and the WWE Network I've been able to watch and it was pretty good. There's a lot more silliness than I expected but that's wrestling for you."

[10.0] "One of the greatest wrestling promotions of all time. A major force during the Territory Days of pro wrestling. Major stars, hot angles, bloody feuds, incredible promos, outstanding matches, fired up energetic crowds, whatever you want. Mid-Atlantic delivered it all on a regular basis and created so many memories along the way. This was a Hardcore wrestling fan's dreamboat of a wrestling promotion."

[10.0] "Easily my favorite promotion not naming WWF to go back and watch in this period. They were simply on FIRE during their run in the early to mid 80s. And I believe they actually could have dethrone Vinnie Mac Jr. as well, hadn't it been for a number of unfortunate circumstances that forced Crockett to sell the company to billionaire Ted Turner."

[9.0] "Perhaps the best "southern rasslin" territory from the 70s and 80s, this promotion grew to encompass almost the entire NWA, and held the first Pay Per View (Starrcade), and gave the WWF true competition. Were it not for the mismanagement of funds, the promotion would likely still be around today. The company was sold to Ted Turner, becoming WCW."
