Yup what a cool fucking guy. U get 2 teams for the price of 1. U have to keep these guys and when u look at the tape we just seen. You can't tell it's another team .. U really think it's someone else. What a cool thing to do. More tag teams should do that have 1 with masks and the other without and see which one works lol
Jimmy looked after those he managed and would fight for them as best as he could. But he's not going to do the same for those he doesn't manage, and he's not a miracle worker either.
@@hollywoodhh5646i wanted the fans to win the monday night wars like we did from July 1996-March 1999 when both promotions were great to watch and doing record business.
Disorderly Conduct was like WCW'S version of the Beverly Brothers. But I really liked when they were the Texas Hangmen that was kind of cool back then.
They started off as the Texas Hangmen in AWA during the 80's Mike Richards Moran and Rick Gantner. Then Tough Tom came in when they became Disorderly Conduct in WCW. Cool rassling memories!
What a cool thing for Jimmy to do for those 2 guys. When he did not have too cu Jimmy was a long time star and dealt with big stars his whole life. And he saved those guys job. And his logic was great. Good on you Jimmy for helping the little keep getting a check to feed there family
They kept their jobs by working an extra match. Or playing different characters. Plus Thunder ⚡ was in a tight spot cause it needed all the talent it could. Balancing Nitro & Thunder was hard for WCW trying to keep the ball 🏀 rolling coming up with ideas 💡 to keep the lights on
I met Jimmy Hart at an independent pro wrestling event where I used to attend junior high school in the late 2010s. I never knew this about him! I always held him in high regard, but I have even more respect for him after hearing about what he did for Disorderly Conduct.
I always liked The Texas Hangmen the little bit i got to see of them back in the day. I had no idea they were also Disorderly Conduct... I've always been a sucker for identical masked tag teams.
Met him at Daytona Mall getting gifts wrapped outside Macy's or Penny's, maybe, idk, nice guy, was great to my son who didn't know, know him, my younger son knows them better but since that day, he always has.
Disorderly conduct must have been really nice guys out of the ring. They weren’t exactly money makers so for Jimmy to help em out is really nice of him.
Even if this story were untrue, after having the honor of meeting and talking with Mr. Hart, I would say that it does sound like something he would do. Class Act all the way.
In Late 1999, WCWwas starting it's long, long, LONG spiral, down the ole Toilet! How they managed to stay in business until 3/26/2001, is way beyond me! Most of the storylines were puke-awful! In 2000, when Sting and Vampiro feuded, it was a tough time of things, to be sure. There were other things, such as "The New Blood", and "The Millionaires Club", that were tried, but nothing worked all that well...and that's me being kind here! They tried, and tried, and tried, but to no avail.
WCW was in the hole because of Hogan, Hall and Nash. Not only did they take a big chunk of WCW's profits but they took a lot of air time away from the lower roster. All up and comers were kept down. The Flock, the New Radicals and the Cruiser Weight's should have had a bigger roll than they got.
I remember seeing these guys a lot in WCW at that time. Didn't know they were also The Texas Hangmen as well. I think these guys wrestled in Germany's short lived promotion, World Wrestling Superstars.
Yep these were the Texas Hangmen Version 2 as the OG was Shaghai Pierce & Tex Slazinger aka The Godwinns as in Mark Canterburry & Dennis Knight were that Team OG in the Mid 1990s
Hey..I don't usually comment on vids..but I really like the work you do and the content is very nostalgic too me..I really enjoy them great memories and I thought I knew loads about wrestling but I always find something new with your channel...thanks for the great work you do and effort you put in..I'll try to remember to comment as I herd it helps the channels...!!
This has 'always' been pretty common hasnt it? If not before, surely in the 80's and early 90'? Duane Gill, Barry Hardy, Fidel Sierra and a few other comes to mind.
For sure. But those guys were just freelancers who did shows here and there. WCW actually kept these guys under a written contract specifically because they wore masks and could work two matches a night.
I used to be enamoured by the jobbers on Saturday night as a kid so I created them in N64 games at the time where you could create a wrestler. So I sarcastically had Disorderly Conduct and Roadblock on my rooster on the game 😂
Alternate costume b the texas hangmen in the early 90s were real good.theyr brightest moment was when in puerto rico they faced carlos colon and bruiser brodys "unaliver" in a tag match.tag match that colon and brodys unaliver won.however they attacked the faces from behind..and hanged brodys unaliver for minutes..the faces were stopped by the heels..even a female tried to save the hanged unaliver but eric embry was hitting her..then came TNT(savio vega) who at that time was a full blown heel..embry thought he would join in the female beatdown but attacked him instead..and saved the unaliver..
The Hangmen should have been their Tag Team name maybe with even The Hangmen challenging other Tag Teams like Harlem Heat and The Steiner Bros almost in showcase matches before the bigger rivalries like, The Steiner Bros vs The Hangmen Rick/Scott Steiner both facing the Hangmen on an episode of Nitro could allow them to take frustration off before their Tag Team match against The Outsiders or Harlem Heat. Harlem Heat vs The Hangmen Booker T/Stevie Ray could face The Hangmen in a Tag Team match to push a storyline too between Harlem Heat and The Outsiders or The Steiner Bros.
_"Tough"_ Tom & _"Mean"_ Mike 😆😂🤣 Judging by those two monikers WCW hadn't evolved in nearly a decade when in the early 90's when they saddled the man who would become the Undertaker with _"Mean"_ Mark
@@NotThatTomGreen1 all my favorites at the time came from wcw Eddie , rey both Chris’s my step dad showed me wcw on vhs back in 2002 I was hooked ever since.
I love your videos dude , if we lived near one another we would probably be the best of friends because I don’t know anyone else with a passion for wcw like you , other than myself. Keep up the videos brother the wcw fans age finding these
Scotty Riggs said on an interview that Wcw suggested to pay him per appearance and he refused during this time.He let his contract expire and he left in January 2000.In my opinion, Saturday Night sucked in 2000.It's ok to have younger wrestlers but they wrestled constantly against each other every Saturday and it didn't help them so much.Just my opinion.
@@NotThatTomGreen1 I like everything about Wcw because it was the best period of wrestling during this time.When Radicalz left,i believe it was the nail in the coffin for this show and later wcw in general.These guys really busted their asses for this company. They earned every dollar of their contracts.I would like to say that your clips are awesome and your clip about Mercury and York almost competing for the cruiserweight tag belts in 2001 really blowed my mind.Do you have a clip of the last Prince Iaukea match before becoming The Artist?It would be interesting to watch.
These guys were the original hangmen from AWA and Puerto Rico before they were disorderly conduct and they been around along time , they brought back the Texas hangmen gimmick which suits them better than disorderly conduct
Wrestling has sucked since the day the WCW went out of business. WCW wasn't at the top of their game in the last months but there was at least hope they'd pull it together.
@NotThatTomGreen1 yeah no problem. He's born and raised in Sheboygan Wisconsin,his bar a very nice. It's kinda got a biker Harley Davidson theme and color scheme. It's a nice place, great food to.
Mike and Tom? Weren't those the guys Jericho tried so hard to learn their names? Mike and Tom and Tom and Mike. Mike Tom. Tom Mike. They were clones, with stupid suits. 😅
Newsletters, shoot interviews, and the like. This particular story has just been around in the ether for years, but I first remember hearing it in The Death of WCW book.
Jimmy Hart is an unsung hero of wrestling. He helped so many guys out.
Facts
3RD BEST MANAGER AFTER BOBBY HENAAN AND SLICKSTER
He’s a good person I met him in person
Jimmy is no.2 right below Heenan
No..
"2 people, 2 teams, and you only gotta pay for one daddy"- Jimmy Hart probably.
Lol
😂😂😂😂 OnG
😂 perfectly said I read it in his voice
I immediately read it in his voice
N0
That's the most wrestling way to save two dudes from the contractual chopping block
You keep these guys you lose 2 tag teams brother.
So fuckin carnie!!!
Yup what a cool fucking guy. U get 2 teams for the price of 1. U have to keep these guys and when u look at the tape we just seen. You can't tell it's another team .. U really think it's someone else. What a cool thing to do. More tag teams should do that have 1 with masks and the other without and see which one works lol
Throughout his career, Jimmy Hart could work magic behind the scenes
Yeah he got an extra 6 months work for a couple of jobbers.
The fact of all the acts he could save from getting fired he chose the tag jobbers in purple is truly something
Life is all about connections.
Jimmy looked after those he managed and would fight for them as best as he could. But he's not going to do the same for those he doesn't manage, and he's not a miracle worker either.
Well honestly that 2 for 1 thing was a great argument. Im sure he tried for other acts but just wasn't successful.
Wrestling needs jobbers. And GOOD ones too!
Enhancement talent is talent too.
Carnie as hell!! Jimmy was the best little pipsqueek ever
Jimmy Hart was always a real one. Heard nothing but praise about him from other Wrestling Legends and personalities.
Another reason why Jimmy is deserving of his place in the WWE Hall of Fame.
Jimmy Hart is right up there with Bobby Heenan and Jim Cornette as far as great managers go 👍
Man i miss wcw.
Me too so wanted them to win the Monday night wars and I'm Canadian. (Most people here were always wwe people)
Why? They were always so low budget. Dollar store wrestling

Love Jimmy, this team was good, they had charisma
Jimmy Hart took advantage of how insanely dumb WCW management was.
Yeah WCW wasn’t too bright back then, 🤭
IIRC, WCW management at the time have NO idea what product they got..
Jimmy Hart is also responsible for a ton of our favorite wrestling intro/them songs..
His most popular being Shawn Michaels
(Sexy Boy) song.
IIRC he wrote Real American too.
Gotta respect that fr fr, not too many people like that out there anymore
I hated Jimmy as a kid ( he was really good at his job). Love him as an adult.
So nice of Jimmy really care about the guys who had no chance to become big. Jimmy Hart is a lifer for the wrestling business.
Keep theses deep cut coming
Jimmy Hart also believed in those guys and got them their payday. JH rocks! Love him.
I hated him as a kid, and I love him the more I know him. Praise be the Mouth of the South!

I swear, Jimmy Hart has some good karma. I always hear some good stuff about him.
May of saved em near the end but it didnt em a spot on wwe c shows sadly cuz these guys were underrated
Met him at Daytona Mall getting gifts wrapped outside Macy's or Penny's, maybe, idk, nice guy, was great to my son who didn't know, know him, my younger son knows them better but since that day, he always has.
Who?

The Hangmen were a monster team in Puerto Rico. Always like their look and style.

Only jimmy could do that 📢
According to Mean Mike in a shoot interview. DC were the 3rd to last jobbers to be let go back in 2000s WCW.
WCW secondary show faves of mine.

The way Billonaire Ted was writing checks even the wcw Saturday night guys were making 6 figures.

Seriously, the Texas Hangman gimmick was a neat idea. I remember them. Sad they never got any run other than jobbers. WCW was so good.
This has 'always' been pretty common hasnt it? If not before, surely in the 80's and early 90'? Duane Gill, Barry Hardy, Fidel Sierra and a few other comes to mind.

Respect to Jimmy Hart ❤️
Super cool
Wish he wouldn't do the whole "this is a WCW deep cut" intro. That's just me, great videos tho man🙂
Credit to Jimmy, sheer genius
Now I need a “Four Faces of Disorderly Conduct” Documentary🤣
The more I hear about Jimmy Hart, I become a bigger fan of his

However...the wcw version of the hangmen only had one original member.the other one i think was bull pain..
Growing up as a kid I hated J Hart and J Cornette. Little did I know they were the true heroes all along.
Hope these deep cuts can go on for awhile, love it!
I’m planning on going as long as there’s stories to be told.
The Hangmen should have been their Tag Team name maybe with even The Hangmen challenging other Tag Teams like Harlem Heat and The Steiner Bros almost in showcase matches before the bigger rivalries like,
The Steiner Bros vs The Hangmen
Rick/Scott Steiner both facing the Hangmen on an episode of Nitro could allow them to take frustration off before their Tag Team match against The Outsiders or Harlem Heat.
Harlem Heat vs The Hangmen
Booker T/Stevie Ray could face The Hangmen in a Tag Team match to push a storyline too between Harlem Heat and The Outsiders or The Steiner Bros.
Deeeeep Ckut… i love it when he says that
Disorderly Conduct were great on WCW Saturday Night.
The Texas Hangmen were huge, butt-kicking and hated heels in WWC, Puerto Rico.
That's the most wrestling story thats ever Wrestled.
Wow that’s awesome
2 teams for the price of one... Smart

Meanwhile Ed Leslie was probably getting separate royalties for each of his gimmicks thanks to his connection to Hogan lol
Texas Hangmen ended up being Mark Canterbury(Henry Godwinn) & Dennis Knight(Phinneus Godwinn/Mideon)
Common misconception, since their ring gear as Tex & Shanghai’s gear looked like the Hangmen’s gear.
That’s smart actually
These guys were the original hangmen from AWA and Puerto Rico before they were disorderly conduct and they been around along time , they brought back the Texas hangmen gimmick which suits them better than disorderly conduct
Correction one of them mean Mike , like someone else said I guess Rick ganter retired ? But I still see them as the original since one member remained
Wrestling has sucked since the day the WCW went out of business. WCW wasn't at the top of their game in the last months but there was at least hope they'd pull it together.
