In 1963, Baltimore was a city without pro wrestling. In the years that followed, it would grow to become one of the most sought after fanbases in America, with nearly every top promotion regularly running the Baltimore Arena. Here, for the first time ever, is a detailed look at more than 50 years of pro wrestling history at the venue. From Bruno Sammartino and the Great American Bash to McMahon vs. McMahon and the debut of the Wyatt Family, it's all here. Plus, hear exclusive comments from the fans, talent and backstage officials that were there. Names like Jim Cornette, Jimmy Valiant, Gary Juster, Larry Zbyszko, Kevin Eck, Jeff Jones, PWInsider's Mike Johnson, Nikolai Volkoff, Dennis Brent, Wrestling Observer Live's Michael Sempervive, Maryland Championship Wrestling's Dan McDevitt, Gary Michael Cappetta, and Terry Funk. And see the more than 1,000 images that captured Baltimore wrestling history as it happened.
