DragonKingKarl Classic Wrestling Podcast: History of wrestling at MSG

Pro Wrestling historian Karl Stern continues his look at the history of professional wrestling in a rotating series of classic pro wrestling podcasts. Today’s theme returns to the history of wrestling at Madison Square Garden in New York City, NY, one of the most famous arenas in the world.
