Back in the summer of 1997. Sherri was in the bar at a hotel that my mom worked at. She was in town to wrestle for IWA Mid-South wrestling in Louisville, Kentucky. Her ride never showed and my mom said that I could take her. She wrestled Debbie Combs. She was one of the sweetest, most down to earth people that I have ever met. Her and my mom stayed in touch for a little bit. Sherri wrestled for IWA Mid-South several times. She became one of my favorite wrestlers after that car ride. She was NOTHING like her gimmick. Even had a beer with her at the bar after the show. R i.p. to a true pioneer in women's wrestling.
@Mmoose712 she was nice too. After the show, her and Sherri were drinking together at the hotel bar. Debbie and Sherri tore the house down in the match they had. IWA Mid-South wrestled in an old KMART building not too far from me. Good times.
I remember the Scary Sherri heel era. I mostly remember everyone shitting on her and wanting Miss Elizabeth back with Macho Man. I personally liked her more. She was dark and spooky, and very attractive in her own right.
In the early 90's my band was playing in a hotel bar near Boston when all of the wrestlers, who had just wrestled a show at the Boston Garden, rolled in for the night. Sherri was one of them. My ex-wife was a big fan so I asked her for an autograph. She was so sweet that I was taken aback because she was the total opposite of her ring persona. RIP Sensational Sherri!
I will never forget when WCW came to Florence, SC. Sherri was managing Harlem Heat. I was lucky enough to be by the aisle guard rail. I said " Heeeey, Sherri!" And she said "Heeeey!" with every bit of that gorgeous smile. As a 15 year old, I lost my mind. She was the best.
Jordan, what you said made me think about the wrestlers we grew up hating, now as adults, we understand the genius. Perfect. The psychology of these performers was top tier and we hated them because they were good at their jobs. And now we can appreciate them and how they made us believe.
Yea looking back now many years later, I appreciate the heel way way more than the face usually from back in those days. Even managers and commentators such as Bobby The Brain and stuff were incredible now looking back at their work.
Great video tribute, as I kid I used too hate sherry but as I grew up and understood the business, you realise how good she was too make that happen !!
Excellent, Excellent video, Jordan. I've recently started watching a lot of your videos and I love what you do. Keep up the great work, my man. As for this video, it's beautifully done and I love that you really shined a light on her greatness and what she meant to the wrestling business. Unfortunately, Sherri and a lot of other people from that era are seen as cautionary tales and it's almost like that's all they're remembered for when that shouldn't be the case. I haven't seen the dark side of the ring episode about her, but from what you've said it sounds like her son is very understanding of her decision and accepted her for who she was. I was very happy to hear that because it would be an even sadder story knowing he felt left out/left behind. Man, life is just hard sometimes and I guess we all have things we wish we could do over again and I'm sure Sherri was so different, but I hope for her son's sake he's at peace with everything and it sounds like he is and God bless him because that's a tough hand to be dealt. But yeah, this video was absolutely incredible and reminded me once again of just how special and influential she was. There will never be another female heel to top what she did because it's just a different industry today, but she truly was the best female heel in the business. There will never be another. May she rest in peace.
Very respectful as always. You are always so gracious when covering more controversial people and subjects. With all of the back stories of the hierarchy of the wrestling scene, I can imagine the stories she could have told. Thank you! ❤
This video made me cry. Thank you so much for having humanized her. You could tell she was loyal, loved & respected all around. She could hold her own with the guys & she was one fabulous heel! I love Sheri & will always remember her contributions. ♥️
This was so well done, and you are right, she is very underrated. I grew up watching her and she did such an amazing job, she really knew the business and was such a pro. Much love to her family and to her son especially. RIP beautiful Sensational Sherri❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤.
Sherri even sang the 1st version of Shawn's entrance theme. RIP😢Sherri🙏deservedly🪦in⚰️the WWE Hall of Fame. 49's way too young. Another fantastic job Jordan. Sherri was indeed a legendary figure in wrestling & is dearly missed.
This is one of the many reasons I love watching your Vlogs. I learn about people and places I’ve never been or known about and you are fair and honest with your content. Thank you.
Last time I saw Sherri was at the Alabama State Fair in Birmingham! It was around '94, she was always cool with me! She grew up down in McCalla near my grandparent's house!
Terrific job Jordan Sensational Sherri had a incredible career she managed the greatest wrestlers in the history of the business sad how she passed away though Rest Easy Sherri
It’s so sad that these incredible wrestlers were neglected from getting adequate treatment for these on the job injuries. Shame on Vince Mcmann for not taking care of the people that made him successful. Poor Sherri 💔💔💔 RIP
Her and Miss Elizabeth were my favorite Ladies of Wrestling growning up and both were the sweetest when I met them and on the same day! Still hard to process they are both gone all these years later.
This is such a sad story for someone who worked so hard and was such an amazing entertainer and athlete. There’s so few trailers in McCalla anymore area has grown a lot. she was buried in West Blocton just a few miles from where her mother lived. Saw her at Tannehill State Park a few times.
Thank you for Sharing about Sherry, such a unique woman, beautiful, intelligent and being her own woman, and a wrestler on top of it all! She would been a great person to hear interview(s) from her! Thank you for doing this, in such a great light, they she truly deserves! 👏❣
The odds are he did something and she just never said anything. Then after that most likely happened she went with moolah who probably pimped her out like she did with her other girls
If you were trying to making a positive video about somebody, you certainly succeeded!! (I’m not a wrestling fan, but just watching us. I could definitely see how this woman’s participation really kind of changed the wrestling world.) thank you for this.!
We love you Jordan, huge fan of your channel, its only youtubers like you who does justice to amazing public faces like Sherri, i not seen any decent video about her until i saw this, watching from the UK
I met her once, she stayed at a hotel I stayed in (it was ok, cheap but nothing special at all). She carried out her own bags etc., very down to earth person and was very nice to me. I had a lot of respect for her and thought, what a sweet person she was.
Jordan, Ive been with you before the OG Salute Your Shorts filming locations, I know you because of my first OG RUclipsr "Adam" Im so behind on my youtube vids, But this was beautiful sir, Thank you for this video and every video. It means the world, and I am glad You didnt give location information. But to her son, Your Wrong for not saying where It Is, Your screwing all the fans that loved your mother. But thank you Lion, I stand tall with you. Im here for life sir. Thank you for everything.
Watched it in full, thanks for telling her life story, felt like a tribute to her. Some people have a heart of gold, Sherry was one of them. Rest in peace and thanks for the memories.
Well, done Jordan excellent job, my man yeah she was something in her day. That’s for sure. Such a sad ending to a really good down-to-earth person thank you once again.
Thanks Jordan for honoring the memory of Sherri and she was SENSATIONAL RIP Ms Sherri your a true legend of wrestling your contributions to the business will never be forgotten
Jordan about four years ago I was mostly in the house and had health problems and I found your channel and it was the first channel I subscribe to and I couldn’t ever tell you how much you’re videos were great and kept me up on the different places. I can’t thank you enough ❤❤
Jordan, how proper and fitting a story you did here. Cannot agree more live the old wrestlers and ones we grew up with. A sad story. I appreciate that you hi light the good in people. Stay safe both you and Jah.
Just seeing this and catching up with some of your videos, after a long summer of live shows. I finally get a chance to relax. Sherri was amazing. She had everything it took to be a top wrestler. Like many others have said, I think it’s a tragedy how Vince McMahon ate up and spit out some of these wrestlers. Without a care for their welfare after they put their bodies on the line for his company and made him a ton of money. He couldn’t invest any of that money in making sure that they lived good for the rest of their lives. Just makes me upset. Fly high sensational, Sherri.
Great tribute Jordan. We are similar age and I remember her managing Macho man then Ted Dibiase. She was an amazing performer and wrestler. Love all your videos mate from the U.K.
That was a gorgeous woman and great wrestler and manager. I love her to this very day, watched her throughout her career dating back to the AWA. RIP Baby 💙
Years ago, I had a brother in law who spent most of his time partying way too much and lived for wrestling. He too passed young. But the mystery of my life is finally solved. He would stop over after drinking for most of the day, throw me over his shoulder and call me Sensational Sherry. I had no idea why until today… And I just thought he was nuts and made that name up. Oooh I would get so mad. Thanks Jordan
@@raaawkstaaar Your viewpoint, sounds like a snob. Obviously, that's not a double wide. They are great. Also, they are affordable. Compared to these expensive apartments, in these failed cities and states.
"Come back when you're 21" Now that doesn't sound like Grizzly Smith lol JK Thank you Jordan for doing a vid on Sherri To me she was the "Shown Micheals" of female wrestling. She had charisma, the look, the intensity, and she was actually a great wrestler. Alot of people think of her as only a manager/valet but she was amazing
I've always favored the faces in wrestling however I remember always rooting for Sherrie no matter what she did, as simple as that. Good to know she was favored and respected by many. RIP.
The business swallowed her up like so many others.injuries...addictions...the ultimate end.sad as she really made her mark and achieved the fame she so wanted.
Thank you for your extremely hard work to bring us fascinating stories. Welcome back to Alabama the Beautiful. One thing about Alabama you can feel the difference weather from the top, middle and lower part of the state. Just know that you have a lot of people that loves you and Jai.
Wow she was trained by grizzly smith and moolah. Grizzly was Jake the snake father. I wondered how her and Jake met. She dated Jake for awhile it made him so upset she passed away. He still cares for her.. I'm like you didn't like her until after she passed and saw her dark side of the ring and this was a great tribute to her.
I remember sherri watched her on tv many times very pretty woman sad about everything that happened to her she was a great wrestler she raised some Hell in the Ring !❤
I never really got into the WWE wrestling, but back in the late 60's early 1970's as a kid the old school guys were awesome coming from Detroit watching Bobo Brazil the Sheik and the rest of the old school wrestlers those are the only ones I remember but this is such a sad story I'm glad you told it
Sensational Sherri was an unique and special person a remarkable talented woman and performer Wrestler in the ring and outside the ring one the greatest Female performers of all time in the History of Women's Wrestling in Pro Wrestling!!!😭🙏
Sheri and those kicks!!! She kicked with a force so strong and I loved it. My fav was when she had a story with Macho Man and was a manager for Shawn Michaels. She died on my birthday. Her life was a lot and I hope she is at peace. 🌹 Shawn had a crush on her as well when they worked together, so cute!
Great video Jordan. I agree with you growing up wayching her interfere with mayches always wanted her to get what was coming to her . Saw the dark side of the ring video and felt so bad for her. Hate seeing all the wrestlers that i watched growing up die and retire really sucks.
I'm never been a big wrestling fan but this was a very nice story. I'm sure Sherry and her family would have appreciated this. *🙏🏻Rest In Peace Sherry🕊*
Yeah I know that Find A Grave doesn't show Sherri's grave & just says cremated, burial details unknown or something like that. Rest Peacefully Sherri Martel ❤
Man , when I was training to wrestle I first started with a rinky dink training "school" in Cynthiana KY and after about 6 months and a handful of matches I heard about a tryout for another company in Lexington . So me and my buddy I was training with went there and when we walked in the door I saw Sherri bustling around . I was starstruck and got nervous as hell as I had not worked with or around anyone on that level before . I mean I grew up watching her in the AWA and WWF etc... So we get in the ring and just knowing she was watching , we blew our first spot in the match !!!! But she told us to just relax and start over . We did much better after that . We then sat with her as she critiqued or match on video . She gave us hell on some stuff we did but was also sweet as could be on others . And she treated us very well and was so super nice and warm when we were just chatting afterwards . It is a memory I will never forget . It broke my heart when I learned she died .
Thanks For the biography video on Sherri. I was a big fan of hers as well. Just curious and not being demeaning, but I’m sure she must have made enough to be financially secure, I would have expected her to have been living in a very modest home. Chris Benoit passed away within days of Sherri”s passing. I remember that heartbreaking news like it was recently
Back in the summer of 1997. Sherri was in the bar at a hotel that my mom worked at. She was in town to wrestle for IWA Mid-South wrestling in Louisville, Kentucky. Her ride never showed and my mom said that I could take her. She wrestled Debbie Combs. She was one of the sweetest, most down to earth people that I have ever met.

Even had a beer with her at the bar after the show. R i.p. to a true pioneer in women's wrestling.
I loved Debbie Combs! Wrestling at the Chase!
I never heard of her
@Mmoose712 she was nice too. After the show, her and Sherri were drinking together at the hotel bar. Debbie and Sherri tore the house down in the match they had. IWA Mid-South wrestled in an old KMART building not too far from me. Good times.

@@jayhouston7054 I go back and listen to Waylon Mercy’s promos and I completely understand what he was doing now. It’s incredible.
Jes❤
@@jayhouston7054 Stepanie McMahon played the heel so great. I loved to hate her but loved her because she was so good.
Well done ! Thanks for Keeping her Alive in peoples Memory
I knew her, she worked very hard. She put herself out there. . A woman ahead of her time!!!
I couldn't agree more
Nice job. Respectful while telling her story truthfully.
Great video Jordan, Sherry was so talented. R.I.P. legend 🙏💯
Great video tribute, as I kid I used too hate sherry but as I grew up and understood the business, you realise how good she was too make that happen !!

It’s so sad that these incredible wrestlers were neglected from getting adequate treatment for these on the job injuries. Shame on Vince Mcmann for not taking care of the people that made him successful. Poor Sherri 💔💔💔 RIP
Very selfish IMO
It's not sad at all. These wrestlers made a lot of money & blew it on drugs.
Vince ruined many wrestlers with his bizzare weired thoughts ...and now look whats happening to Vince.bloody KARMA @pinkvolo
And the millions he said he made and didn't.
Do you know for a fact .that is what they spent there money on!@@paulhetrick1759
Her and Miss Elizabeth were my favorite Ladies of Wrestling growning up and both were the sweetest when I met them and on the same day! Still hard to process they are both gone all these years later.
She was also in ECW for a quick run. She was with Shane Douglas when he was feuding with Terry Funk.
Great story Jordan! I grew up not far from where Sherry passed away. Still live within 25 miles of there.
A beautiful tribute. Thank you, Jordan. RIP, Sherry 🌠
This is such a sad story for someone who worked so hard and was such an amazing entertainer and athlete.
There’s so few trailers in McCalla anymore area has grown a lot. she was buried in West Blocton just a few miles from where her mother lived. Saw her at Tannehill State Park a few times.
Yes, McCalla sure has grown a lot since she passed. I would see her at Billy‘s community store when she was in town always had a smile.
She was my favorite American female Wrestler, and Bull Nakano was my favorite Japanese female Wrestler.
She was awesome, thank you Jordan for doing a video on Sensational Sherri.. RIP Sherry 😢❤
She was an amazing talent! I wish i would have gotten to meet her!
Jordan, as usual, you did an excellent job of telling Sherri's story and providing some insights into her career. Your Vlogs are the best!
Her and Luna scared the ish outta me as a child! 😂 It's crazy how much respect comes for these characters and people as you get older! RIP Sherri ❤!
Thank you for Sharing about Sherry, such a unique woman, beautiful, intelligent and being her own woman, and a wrestler on top of it all! She would been a great person to hear interview(s) from her! Thank you for doing this, in such a great light, they she truly deserves! 👏❣
That's the only time grizzly Smith ever said to a woman "come back when you're 21".
Highly unlikely he turned away a young, attractive 16-year old Sherri. The “21” was probably his room number at the local “no tell motel”.
The odds are he did something and she just never said anything. Then after that most likely happened she went with moolah who probably pimped her out like she did with her other girls
16 is too old for a lot of those types
If you were trying to making a positive video about somebody, you certainly succeeded!! (I’m not a wrestling fan, but just watching us. I could definitely see how this woman’s participation really kind of changed the wrestling world.) thank you for this.!
Jordan, you are a fantastic story teller, by the time you finished, I felt like I knew her.
Thank you, Jordan!

Thank you for doing this video. I did not know much about her.
This was great, brought back so many memories, thank you. 😊👍
One of my favorites Jordan! People have watched these famous legends over time want them praised.
I met her once, she stayed at a hotel I stayed in (it was ok, cheap but nothing special at all). She carried out her own bags etc., very down to earth person and was very nice to me. I had a lot of respect for her and thought, what a sweet person she was.
Sherri was the best no one else comes near the sensational one ❤

She was an amazing performer and wrestler.
Love all your videos mate from the U.K.
Great video, Jordan! I enjoyed watching her back in the day. Thanks for all you do!!
Thanks for sharing. And I totally agreed. She was the greatest female wrestler And manager.
Awesome job and I remember her very well, thanks for sharing these I enjoy watching and learning about them, keep up the awesome work my friend. 😊

Its sad that she died living in a trailer ,she was an inspiration to many women, thank you from the uk
Those double wide trailers are nice though.
Wow, what an insult to millions who live in trailers
@@JayCity10 that's not a "double wide" and your view of nice is vastly different from many of us

I knew her as Sister Sherri. She was definitely a WWF Legend. One of the first WWF Divas in the game. Beautiful woman. R.I.P Sherri
great job Jordan!
As a family member this was a nice video.
Wow she was trained by grizzly smith and moolah. Grizzly was Jake the snake father. I wondered how her and Jake met. She dated Jake for awhile it made him so upset she passed away. He still cares for her.. I'm like you didn't like her until after she passed and saw her dark side of the ring and this was a great tribute to her.
Grizzly was a bad dude.
If she was 17 she was a little too old for Grisley so he sent her away. Probably lucky she wasn't younger when she met him.@@sg2823
Breaks my heart so many stars from the generation I grew up with passed away, hope she has found peace
What a great video to remember Sherry by ❤. And I'm glad you kept the Cemetery anonymous . 😇
She was a tremendous performer. Her matches against Madusa are "Must See!!".
I remember sherri watched her on tv many times very pretty woman sad about everything that happened to her she was a great wrestler she raised some Hell in the Ring !❤
I never really got into the WWE wrestling, but back in the late 60's early 1970's as a kid the
old school guys were awesome coming from Detroit watching Bobo Brazil the Sheik and the rest of the old school wrestlers those are the only ones I remember but this is such a sad story I'm glad you told it
Sensational Sherri was an unique and special person a remarkable talented woman and performer Wrestler in the ring and outside the ring one the greatest Female performers of all time in the History of Women's Wrestling in Pro Wrestling!!!😭🙏
Sheri and those kicks!!! She kicked with a force so strong and I loved it. My fav was when she had a story with Macho Man and was a manager for Shawn Michaels. She died on my birthday.

Great video Jordan. I agree with you growing up wayching her interfere with mayches always wanted her to get what was coming to her . Saw the dark side of the ring video and felt so bad for her. Hate seeing all the wrestlers that i watched growing up die and retire really sucks.
Always respectful. Thx Jordan
Im friends with Kathy. Genuinely nice person. Super sad situation with Sherry
I would have loved to talked to them.. i feel like there is a whole side of sherri we never knew..
I would have loved to talk to her.. i feel like there is a whole side to her personality we never knew..
my mom used to watch these wrestlers. i liked it way back in the 70's. my grandpa did too. i liked pat patterson and he liked ray stevens.
Sherri was a doll!! 💜💜 Sherri, Luna and Debbie were/are the very best!! I miss Sherri and Luna so much!! Miss seeing Debbie too!
I'm never been a big wrestling fan but this was a very nice story.
I'm sure Sherry and her family would have appreciated this.
*🙏🏻Rest In Peace Sherry🕊*
Awesome video bro 💔💔❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤👍👍👍
Yeah I know that Find A Grave doesn't show Sherri's grave & just says cremated, burial details unknown or something like that. Rest Peacefully Sherri Martel ❤
Man , when I was training to wrestle I first started with a rinky dink training "school" in Cynthiana KY and after about 6 months and a handful of matches I heard about a tryout for another company in Lexington . So me and my buddy I was training with went there and when we walked in the door I saw Sherri bustling around . I was starstruck and got nervous as hell as I had not worked with or around anyone on that level before . I mean I grew up watching her in the AWA and WWF etc... So we get in the ring and just knowing she was watching , we blew our first spot in the match !!!! But she told us to just relax and start over . We did much better after that . We then sat with her as she critiqued or match on video . She gave us hell on some stuff we did but was also sweet as could be on others . And she treated us very well and was so super nice and warm when we were just chatting afterwards . It is a memory I will never forget . It broke my heart when I learned she died .
Thanks For the biography video on Sherri. I was a big fan of hers as well. Just curious and not being demeaning, but I’m sure she must have made enough to be financially secure, I would have expected her to have been living in a very modest home. Chris Benoit passed away within days of Sherri”s passing. I remember that heartbreaking news like it was recently
