I'm gonna have to make it out to St. Louis one of these days. I read a book recently by Larry Matysik who was the announcer for NWA wrestling in St. Louis back in the day that talked about some of the huge matches that have taken place there and legends like Harley Race and Bruiser Brody. Michigan has a wrestling history as well, but I haven't been to many local events. I went to a TV taping for a local promotion run by Ed Farhat Jr. son of the Original Sheik about five or six years ago, but they no longer have TV that I know of and now I think they only run shows sporadically in the Jackson County area. A lot of great wrestlers have come from Michigan though, including my personal favorites, the two toughest guys to ever step in the ring, The Steiner Brothers!
I like WWE lately, I think they've been going back to a more old school wrestling style and I watch Raw, Smackdown, and NXT every week. I don't like TNA all that much. Aside from that, I've been watching a lot of classic Japanese matches on Youtube.
