Yep, I think I remember Hogan beating Backlund for the championship in the early/mid-80s, no? I have some great cutouts of the current wrestler rankings from the early 80s.
And Daveo, keep plugging away on this bitch -- don't give 'er up. There aren't many (any?) early-wrestling sites out there, so eventually they'll find you. They'll probably do so slowly, but they'll make it over. :)

About Me:
I was a huge fan of wrestling growing up -- way before it became a big mainstream moneymaker. I watched a lot of NWA wrestling -- home of Ric Flair, Tommy "Wildfire" Rich, Buzz Sawyer, Dusty Rhodes, The Road Warriors, Ricky Steamboat, Superfly Snuka and tons of others who became popular on a larger scale later on. When I was a kid, I had a huge scrapbook of wrestlers that I made from the wrestling mags that I would blow all my money on, and my mom just dug it out of storage last month -- it's sitting on my desk right now.
This will give you a clue about when I was into wrestling: when I got into it, Bob Backlund was the WWF champ, Nick Bockwinkel was the AWA champ, and (I think?!) Ric Flair was the NWA champ.
