For my next pick I’m going with a man who excelled as both a wrestler and promoter. Sometimes both at the same time. He was also a former AFL/NFL player too. His biggest claim to fame was owning and booking the Mid South territory, which was eventually changed to UWF and then sold to UNDRAFTED Promotions. He was known a Billy often times dining his wrestlers for the most minor infractions. He also had a rule that if a wrestler got into a real life fight and lost, he was fired. Later in his career he was involved in a racism scandal of sorts as head of WCW, but before that had the first African American can lead baby face in a promotion, and also crowned the first African American world champion.
With my next pick, I select:
Hall of Fame Class:
Just some Inductor house cleaning. Jim Ross will be inducting Bill Watts, Bill Watts will be inducting Ernie Ladd, and to fix the dead inductor, Shawn Michaels will be inducting Ric Flair.
