@ChannelExtreme Gulas/Welch Enterprises, Inc. was a member of the National Wrestling Alliance, and CWA didn't start until Jarrett took over the territory and got Gulas out. I was wrestling there at the time and there was never any CWF at that time. It was strictly Gulas/Welch Enterprises, not CWA.

Gulas was NWA in 1974, not CWA

@lakecumberland It must have been an honor for Lawler & Bass to team with Thesz

Thesz was 58 here and was fast as a cat. Amazing. since he probably put his body through at least 10.000 matches by then.
