On the new DragonKingKarl Classic Wrestling Show, I talk everything that happened in December 1982 in pro wrestling. 

That list includes the infamous Jack Veneno vs. Ric Flair NWA title match; why a Jacques Rougeau by any other name is still Jacques Rougeau; Bob Backlund vs. “Superstar” Billy Graham redux, World Class Star Wars, Jerry Lawler kinda wins the AWA World title, and more!

Here’s the entire timeline of 1982 pro wrestling.
