  2. Format all profiles so they have a consistent look.
  3. Write a fun and accurate biography for each profile in our own words.
  4. Source each profile as thoroughly as possible.
  5. Connect each profile to the Big Tree.

Please see the Completed Profile Checklist for guidelines on what The Notables Project considers to be an essentially completed profile.

Love this page! My favorites were the Junkyard Dog, and Hacksaw Jim Duggan.

Sounds like you’ve been a fan about as long as I have. Been watching since my early teens in Tulsa. Bill Watts and Danny Hodge are my earliest memories of wrestlers on TV. Still watch it! Guess you could say I’m a bit of a fan.
My buddies and I used to go to Mid South matches at the Myriad in downtown OKC in the 80s. I drank a few beers with Kerry Von Erich one night. Heck of a nice guy, and such a tragic story.

I loved Kerry back in the day! Nice to see Kevin’s boys carrying on the tradition. He’s looking pretty good too. The movie was an experience having lived thru all that and having the memories come flooding back. I was torn up when Kerry passed but not nearly as much as when Eddie Guerrero died. I was numb for days.
