Wasn't WCCW on CBN for a bit. If so,and I got foggy memories of them being on CBN before it became the Family channel,they were national. Seen,never confirmed,reports that WCCW was almost neck and neck with WWF at the time with how many markets they reached with Syndication. I know they aired in the Northeast area thru syndication. Hell I got WCCW on a channel out of Alabama and that was the syndicated show.
Chris Adams seems to be a guy that if you grew up in Texas or the south you knew. But if you didn't he wasn't that well known.
Adams had good runs in LA and Portland before heading to World Class. It was all downhill after that.
I know cable wasn't that big in 82. Hell the area I grew up in didnt get cable until Nov 1990. But from what I have read between CBN and syndication WCCW had a huge area of the country that got it on TV.
Didn't WCCW do some shows in the Boston area? Pretty sure I heard about shows in Boston in a shoot interview.
