DragonKingKarl Classic Wrestling Show: Spring 1981 in pro wrestling

The spring of 1981 saw Harley Race continue his run as NWA World champion, Ron Fuller losing his smile and going home, Junkyard Dog cranking it up in Louisiana, Hulk Hogan battling Jerry Lawler in Memphis, a big name wrestler appearing on a game show, Sgt. Slaughter becoming a force in WWF, Don Muraco heading to WWF, and Dusty Rhodes and Andre the Giant forming a impressive tag team.

In this episode of the DragonKingKarl Classic Wrestling Show, I look at all that and more that was happening in the pro wrestling scene in 1981 as the scene was heating up.
