Episode 222: The NWA World Champions Series, Part 10 – Terry Funk

Hello, wrestling fans! It’s time for Episode #222 of Shut Up and Wrestle, with Brian R. Solomon! It’s part ten of the NWA Word Champions Series, with special guest Dr. Tom Prichard.

This week, we look at the career, and especially the NWA World title reign, of Terry Funk, from 1975-1977. Known as one of the greatest of all time, Terry was a unique kind of champion, and represented a turning point in the history of the title, as Brian and Dr. Tom get into on this episode.

For the second Funk family member to win the gold, it was a pinnacle of a career that, in hindsight, was just getting started. So saddle up as we pay a visit this week to the Double Cross Ranch!
