I enjoyed that georgebeckerfan.Lets use this thread to have some fun .
We can test our memories on JCP history pre-1974.Here is my first question:

When Gene and Lars Anderson first came to JCP during the first half of
1966,they had not yet started calling themselves the "Minnesota Wrecking
Crew". What did Lars say on tv that they wanted to be known as at that
point in time?

George Becker to Charlie Harville:"You are looking at the next Worlds Champeen!" referring to Johnny Weaver in 1965.

Since I was born in 1965, it's a little before I followed wrestling, weren't they just know as the Wrecking Crew?

I got all 10 right but was wondering about the first Mid-Atlantic champion question.

Brisco had previously been the Atlantic Coast Champion But when Crockett promotion began calling its produc tMid-Atlantic Championship wresting a new belt was made longtime announcer called Brisco to the ring 1 night during a show in Greensboro to give him the belt and thus became the 1st ever Mid-Atlantic Champion

Hope I told that right and I hope it helps

cwh47 Global Moderator Posts: 352 Gender:	Re: Mid Atlantic Trivia Test Reply #10 - Mar 28^th, 2007, 10:03pm That is right Brad. Lars referred to Gene and himself as the "Swedish Wreckers" in 1966.When they returned to Jim Crockett Promotions in 1967 after their highly successful tour of Georgia,they called themselves the "Minnesota Wrecking Crew". I thank you for responding to this Brad.
