This week on Regional Rasslin, Jammie Ward returns to join Ray Russell in discussing the month of May 1982 in the Georgia territory. Roddy Piper is involved in TWO major angles as he tries to break the hand of Tommy Rch, AND the Hot Rod also costs Michael Hayes a match on TV against Bill White! From there, some great storytelling in the short but memorable feud between Leroy Brown vs. NWA World Champion Ric Flair. Listener John Walker writes in with detailed results from Marion, OH and the notable lazy work from Big John “Grizzly” Studd. Tommy Rich attempts to regain the National Title from Buzz Sawyer. Ted Dibiase is back in Georgia. We look at Omni results when Dusty Rhodes & Tommy Rich team up for the first time ever vs. Rod Piper & Ole Anderson. Jerry Brisco is named Vice President of GCW. El Mongol returns to the territory after many years away. Atlanta Mayor, Andrew Young, stops by TBS studios. Kevin Sullivan finds a doll. Plus, we talk Brad Armstrong, Masked Superstar, Super Destroyer, Ray Stevens, Tom Prichard, Chic Donovan, Mike Jackson, & more!
