We
want the Mid-Atlantic Gateway to be the definitive resource on the
web for information and reference on Mid-Atlantic Championship
Wrestling.
The Mid-Atlantic Almanac
forms the foundation of this effort. Currently, you will find
these sections of information:
MID-ATLANTIC WRESTLING HISTORY AND
THE ROSTER
David Chappell documents what we all
watched on television each week with detail not found in any
other resource. The Roster lists everyone on the team, from
wrestlers to announcers to referee and everyone else in between.
THE CHAMPIONSHIP
Dick Bourne documents the origin,
evolution, and history of the Mid-Atlantic Heavyweight title.
Also included are histories of the other championships defended
in the Mid-Atlantic territory under the auspices of Jim Crockett
Promotions.
TELEVISION HISTORY
Dick Bourne documents the history of
Mid-Atlantic Wrestling on TV, including a look at all of the
programs that crossed the airwaves, the television studios where
they took place, and the voices that brought them to life.
The Almanac is work in progress.
Material will continually be added in the weeks and months to
come.
Special thanks to Mark Eastridge.
