“The Territories” is a special multi-volume series that
takes you across the entire wrestling world during the era
of the most tickets sold, active full-time promotions, and
events in big arenas in the sport’s history. In each
installment, we’ll show you the greatest and most high-
quality surviving footage of what made the area so
successful, unique, and talked about to this day!
Today, the office is sending you to… DETROIT!
The style of pro wrestling in the Motor City often mirrored
that of the fans who watched it… gritty and fearless.
Legendary villain and hardcore wrestling forefather The
Sheik served as promoter and the featured attraction, more
often than not as reigning United States Heavyweight
Champion. Tough men from across the wrestling world would
come to town as the noble hero aiming to end The Sheik’s
reign of terror and fellow sadists would migrate to the area
either to try to top The Sheik’s violence or co-exist
alongside it. What resulted were unforgettable rivalries,
legends-in-the-making, and clashes area fans still talk
about today. From fireballs to shark cages to future World
Champions, Detroit had it all, and now you can enjoy the
most comprehensive collection of matches from its heyday
ever assembled!
