Death Of The Territories by Tim Hornbaker
Expansion, Consolidation and the Shaping of the Modern Wrestling Industry
A detailed narrative of the collapse of the United States' regional pro-wrestling territorial system in the 1980s and early 1990s, tracing how national television, cable expansion, aggressive talent raids and corporate-style business strategies by emerging national promoters extinguished long-standing local promotions. It examines the rivalries, backroom deals, betrayals and acquisitions that reshaped the industry, profiles key figures and promotions, and explains how the move to national consolidation transformed the art, business and careers of wrestlers.
