My Take
David "Dr. D" Schultz belongs to that rough, territorial era of professional wrestling I find endlessly fascinating. Working Stampede Wrestling, the National Wrestling Alliance, and the American Wrestling Association in the late 1970s and early 1980s, he was a product of the pre-national, regional circuit when the business still guarded its secrets fiercely. A Tennessee man born in 1955, he came up the hard way through those promotions. I think of him as a snapshot of an old-school wrestling world that valued toughness and kayfabe above everything, the kind of figure the modern, polished product rarely produces anymore.
