Production issues and continuity continue to be major issues within the company when the NWA and TBS air the WRONG episode of World Championship Wrestling… You can’t make this stuff up!\r\n \r\n Plus, we talk rare episodes of Germany’s NWA TV program “Catch Up”, the Skyscrapers permanently eliminate a team from the Tag Division, and Sid Vicious tries to do it again to poor Lee Scott.
