No idea if this is posted in the right category but as WWE kind of owns the AWA name and tape library then this seems as good of a place as any.
I have recently been watching old AWA videos and I'm amazed at how many star wrestlers the awa actually had its hard to imagine what would of happened if guys like Hulk Hogan, Andre The Giant, The Road Warriors, Shawn Michaels, Marty Jannety, Scott Hall, Curt Hennig, Jesse Ventura, Bobby Heenan, Vader, Ric Flair, Eric Bishcoff and Dallas Page had all stayed in the AWA so many guys started out there before going on to the WWE or NWA/WCW, Hogan seemed really over before he left maybe if they had better management with contracts they would have overtaken all the other competition, I find it trajic that they pretty much lost all their talent during this time, Anyone else a fan of the AWA back in the day? and think they deserve more credit for creating so many future main event wrestlers?
