Researcher's Corner



This section will spotlight work from some of the most prolific and dedicated researchers currently looking into professional wrestling's past.  The job of a wrestling researcher does not only include sifting through old newspapers, but requires that one take all things into consideration - from interviews, to old letters, and other documentation - when piecing together the sport's muddled history.  It is a daunting task that few undertake, and those who do dive into the field are not always recognized despite their noteworthy actions.  A great deal of the cutting edge research on pro wrestling on the internet today has been found by one of a handful of individuals, who make it their business to locate answers to wrestling's most complex questions.
