Plus, he probably has a steel trap when it comes to memories, and to top it all off, he has dozens of journals from when he was a photographer, all the way up until the 2000s.

    Wrestling reminds me a lot of the Ironworkers. Very elite, select group of mostly men. A job that separates the men from boys, pulls a tad of attention from the opposite sex, has a bit of danger, and Ironworkers have endless stories just like wrestlers.
    My experience hanging off buildings is prob the closest I'll get to some sort of elite brotherhood like what pro wrestling is, or especially was back in the territory days.

      No it would not. first Watts only liked a few wrestling styles and had a major problem with high flyers. He favored Terry Taylor over Chris Adams.

      Tony G naw. Watts was a dinosaur. Great mind by 70s standards, but the world was passing him by in the 80s. His embarrassing run in 1992 cements this

    •  4 года назад

      @MemphoWrasslin1 Taylor was a jobber. Adams was a major talent. As far as other people who didn't like Watts how about Flair,Arn,Barry windham
      Watts did not like high flyers among other styles, he actually banned off the top rope during his few months at WCW. Oh and he pushed his no talent son down the fans throats.

      Watts whole time in WCW was dumb, anyone who runs off the Stieners and pushes their own talentless son needs to be fired. Under him WCW dropped to new lows in PVP buys and I assume attendance was probably similar. The only PVP that did well was Jake Roberts Vs Sting and Watts immediately fired Jake.
