Rasslin 83: The Jarrett/Gulas Split 1977 (Setting the Stage)

NEW YEAR, NEW PROJECTS! Special Guest Steve Crawford returns as we kick off 2025 on Regional Rasslin' with the first new project of the year... This week we set the stage for the 1977 Tennessee Territory Split between Jerry Jarrett vs. Nick Gulas & Roy Welch. In this episode we go back in time and talk the lay of the land, the backstory of the territory, the promoters involved, the cities involved, the talent involved (even Dr. Frank), where it all went awry, and we cover the first 2 months of 1977 results & info!
