Karl Stern Classic Wrestling Show: Edouard Carpentier
On this edition of the DragonKingKarl Classic Wrestling Audio Show, our long form history of pro wrestling reaches the mid-1950s.
We talk in detail about the NWA World title reign of Edouard Carpentier which spawned the WWA World title and, in a way, lead to the creation of the AWA World title and why you won’t find Carpentier listed in the record books as NWA World champion.
