Scott's Blog of Doom
Rants

Asians and Hispanics and Communists oh my

By Scott Keith on 28 December 2012


Hey Scott, I was wondering if you could please do me a small favor. After some encouragement from my teacher to choose a topic related to wrestling for my History research ascertainment I decided to do it on Xenophobia and racism in wrestling. I figured with a everybody seemingly asking the blog for project advice, maybe the blog could lend a hand with two things

1) any places were I can get good research, both statistics (gate numbers, PPV buys, Win/Loss) and pieces on the old angles and characters from the old territory days

2)if anybody at the blog has any suggestions for angles two look at-anything relating to evil foreigners will do (Rikidozan, Canadian Stampede, Nikolai Volkoff, etc)

Thank you for your time Scott

Your loyal fan, Kyle Warne

For ANYTHING research-related, you want Karl Stern's "Stern Sticks". There's endless amounts of research material and records, especially on the territories. http://www.dragonkingkarl.com is your friend and I'd highly recommend the sticks, plus you get days worth of the classic wrestling audio shows as well.
