DragonKingKarl: October 2025 Q&A show
On a new DragonKingKarl Show, it’s time for Karl Stern’s monthly question and answer podcast.
He explores an interesting quirk that happened the night Hulk Hogan lost the WWF Championship to Andre the Giant on The Main Event in 1988.
Also, where does the old Global Wrestling Federation (GWF) rank historically?
He also looks at three different eras of pro wrestling — 1980s, 1990s and today — to see what second and third tier wrestling promotions did and how they are viewed in a historical context including the AWA and ECW.
