Welcome to my newest contribution to Pro Wrestling Ponderings, “Wrestling Through the Ages.”  As a part of my love for wrestling, I subscribe to WWE’s Classics on Demand service.  For the most part, this column will review some of the things they present to us On Demand.  While the WWE’s current programming is not as great as it used to be, the greatest thing about Classics on Demand is their vast library of vintage (thank you Michael Cole) wrestling footage.  Their library includes the WWE’s past (obviously), WCW, ECW, AWA (American Wrestling Association), Jim Crocket Promotions, Smokey Mountain Wrestling, Championship Wrestling from Florida (CWF), Stampede Wrestling (CSW) based out of Calgary, and World Class Championship Wrestling (WCCW).  Each Wednesday they present new programming for the enjoyment of those of us who love professional wrestling.  There is always a wide variety of shows to choose from each month, ranging from classic and current (usually about 4 months beyond) PPVs, Raw’s and Nitro’s from the beginning and the heart of the Monday Night War, a spotlight on the career of a different Hall of Famer each month, and many original programming exclusive to the On Demand service.  I am planning on reviewing some of the programming (be it original or classic) once or twice a month.  Here is the first of these reviews; I hope you enjoy it, as I think it’s an excellent place to start.
