WCCW Year In Review: 1982
After roughly two years of very leisurely reviewing World Class Championship Wrestling’s inaugural year on weekly television, I have really come to love the promotion. I went into my reviews nearly blind, only being attracted by a handful of the notable names that spent a cup, or two, of coffee passing through. With television episodes fully reviewed for the calendar year (according to what is available), I wanted to put a nice bow on my watchthrough. Covered are some of the most notable feuds, angles, matches, and the promotion’s greatest hits, and misses, of 1982!
