Despite the reputation for stellar action, excellent television production and innovative character development, clean and concise Mid South Wrestling (later Universal Wrestling Federation) results aren't as easy to come by as I would have thought.
Data Sources Used for this Analysis
You can see the quick comparison between the different data sources.
For the initial pass, I used the ClawMaster results (1979-1986, missing 1982) combined with the CrazyMax TV episodes (Dec 1981-Dec 1983). This certainly double-counts many of the results. However, we also have lots of result holes where many of the same matchups indubitably took place, so hopefully the two balance out each other (somewhere).
Notes
Many of the cards from the "results" section had winners & losers; however, most of the TV results did not. So, keep that in mind when you're looking at win-loss percentages -- essentially, I have match counts but little else for 1982 at this moment.
