For two decades, wrestling beamed into the living rooms and went face to face with the BBC, “accomplishing a David and Goliath Saturday afternoon warfare with Grandstand.” While World of Sport showcased other (arguably more valid) aggressive endeavors for the duration of its Saturday show, it turned into the 4 pm wrestling that captured the audience’s imagination. It drew thousands and thousands of lovers at its top, from small kids cheering for the babyfaces to OAPs shaking fists at the heels. It added human beings together and allowed them to get in the back of something harmless, eccentric, and unmistakably British.
