Championship Picture This Month:
NWA WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT---Harley Race
Dusty Rhodes was a blur of rage, swinging that bat at any opening he could find on Tully. Several officials ran out to try and put an end to the carnage, but Dusty swung the bat at them also, like a mad dog chasing people away from a fresh kill.

ALL IN THE FAMILYor
From last week-'Pro-wrestling is as difficult to break into as a high school clique. It is one of America's last 'father and son' industries; an industry where it is definitely who you know, not what you know, that's important. Consider how many stars in the sport are second generation wrestlers: Curt Hennig, Greg Valentine, Greg Gagne, Tully Blanchard, Barry Windham, Kendall Windham, Randy Savage, Lanny Poffo, Ted DiBiase, Kerry Von Erich, Terry and Dory Funk, Eddie Gilbert, Jeff Jarrett, Owen Hart, Bret Hart, David Sammartino, and so on and on.'
'Hulk Hogan's boyhood pals and former training partners are Ed Leslie (Brutus Beefcake) and Ray Fernandez (Hercules Hernandez).' And don't forget Hulk's brother Mike Boulder and his nephew Horace Boulder, and ..... Larry Zbyszko was Bruno Sammartino's next door neighbor. Then he married the boss's (Verne Gagne's) daughter. No wonder Tom Zenk left AWA. All the best spots, including the AWA World Championship, were already reserved for either Verne's son (Greg Gagne) or son-in-law (Larry Zbyszko).
