Comedy Network (Canada's answer to Comedy Central) aired an episode of Wrestling With the Past this evening. What wrestling has to do with comedy here I don't know. All that mattered is that it's a series, and tonight focused on Canadian legend Gene Kiniski.


Gene is obviously much older now than in his heyday, but he still looks like a tough hombre. This was also my chance to see what Don Leo Johnathan looks like (Don had a match against Andre the Giant years ago that even made the local news).


It was also interesting to see a map of all the regional promotional territories of the past.


Regardless of the network, this is a great show for us wrestling historians.
