"The
Wrestling Show" aired on WESC FM in Greenville, SC at midnight on
Monday nights after the weekly matches in the Greenville Memorial
Auditorium. This was in the mid to late 70's. WESC midnight-to-6:00
am DJ Fred Nabors was the host.
Sandy Scott, Crockett's local
promoter at the time, was in studio also. They would have the results
from the night's event, play taped interviews from earlier the same night
that Fred Nabors would conduct before the matches and tape them for play
on the show. Usually, they would get some of the guys to stay in town
and go live on the air during the show.

A fellow named Jim McNerney lived in Greenville and was trying to break
into writing for the wrestling magazines. He persuaded Fred Nabors to
let him come in the studios
that night and take these pictures.
