THE ALMANAC

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.
