Hello all:
 
Is anyone here aware of a wrestling promotion that had TV coverage in the Roxboro,NC area somewhere around 1979-1980? As a small child, I used to stay at my grandparent's house and I remember watching this wrestling show on TV, but I have absolutely no recollection of what promotion it was, or who any of the workers were. It definitely wasn't anything from Crockett or the IWA. For all I know, it may have been some local promotion that happened to secure a time slot somehow. I do remember the show having pretty poor production values and I didn't recognize anyone. Bear in mind, I was only seven or eight years old.
 
I'm sorry this question is so vague, but I have really been racking my brain as to what the heck I was watching back then. Any help is most appreciated.
 
Thanks to all in advance,
MaskedSuperstarFan

No earthly idea what channel it would have been - I'm going strictly on faded memories from when I was a young kid. If the show you mentioned aired around that time frame, then yes, it may very well have been the one. Do you remember anything else about it? Also, out of curiousity, is the Eclipso you mentioned the same one who has worked shows in Virginia recently with Pvt. Jim Nelson?
 
Thanks so much,

i recall (just once) seeing a show on WSLS from Roanoke of a group called the "NWF" in either '80 or '81 at about 3am on a Sunday morning. best i can recall, they had a one camera shot in with what appearred to have been shot in a garage somewhere. i only saw one episode and it was a VERY bad reception. and i don't recall any wrestlers names.

mighta been but since it was on that late and barely viewable, i could hardly tell what was going on past the commentary.
