K.C seems like such a nice dude. This was a lovely interview
Absolutely. Really enjoy listening to him, comes across as an awesome guy
I used to love attending SMW in Barbourville and Harlan, KY. Crazy crowds and good shows.
I went to a lot of the Barbourville shows. My grand parents lived just down the road from the high school. Great times.
Don't let this shoot interview fool you. This is one of your best ever James
Love SMW so this is a goldmine! Thanks
Would love to see a part no. 2 and go more in-depth on some of this stuff.
He seems like a good dude, but honestly, the fact that he was just a small-time employee comes across pretty hard in the interview. And I don't mean that in a bad way, I completely sympathize with his plight.
But he clearly doesn't have the insight into everything going on with the company on a big picture/corporate level. I'm not sure he has that much more to add.
Would love for corny to come on this show. I know its a long shot though lol.
Corny the commie
I’m very glad you interviewed KC. I’ve heard stories about him on Jim Cornette podcast but since he was never anyone on screen, like a wrestler or a manager, or a referee, no one ever interviewed him before.
And I do agree with him that I think the way Jim booked tha gangstas was a little too much. I don’t think it’s the sole reason SMW went away, but it’s definitely a contributing factor.
Because if you really go back and rewatch all of Smoky Mountain wrestling, everything they did from 1991 to the end of 1995 , it really does feel like Jim just wanted to get through the Super Bowl of wrestling in the summer of 1995 and then after that you can tell his heart just wasn’t in it anymore.
Now keep in mind he was only part time with the WWF at this point, and he had a good relationship with Vince McMahon, and some of his friends were working there and most importantly Vince Russo was not a part of the creative team. So in the summer of 1995 the wrestling businesses in an all time low, he’s working part time at the company that’s doing the best financially, so I really do think without Jim being able to see the future and that’s six months after he closed SMW that there would be this huge, wrestling boom, and pro wrestling would be the most popular it had ever been, without knowing that I think Jim just thought that his best bet was to go to WWF full-time.
You can tell by the booking, it wasn’t just the Gangstas . After the Super Bowl of wrestling that summer, you could tell that he wasn’t going out of his way to put everything he had into creative. After the Super Bowl of wrestling, which was about the time the gangstas left, he just decided he was going to manage every heel in the territory. Because it’s easier for him to just say he’s managing all the heels, so he’s got to walk out there and cut all the promos so he doesn’t have to give anyone else any direction. He can just make it up as he goes.
He didn’t really seem to be aggressively going to after fresh talent anymore. The fans were still very much into the. R&R Express, Tracy Smothers, the Dirty White Boy , but the fact that he took Tracy and Tony Anthony and put them on a baby face tag team even before all the BS happened between Ricky Morton’s girlfriend, and Tracy’s girlfriend, to me that was another thing pointing to. He’s not really trying to get anyone super over at this point.
From the Super Bowl of wrestling all the way to the end is really the only part of SMW I would say isn’t great. Don’t get me wrong it’s 10 times better than anything we get today but from the time they open the doors up until the summer of 95 Smoky Mountain Wrestling did more with what they had than any other wrestling company.
No, they did not have a big star of southern Wrestling Like Sting, Ric Flair, Ron Simmons, Sid, Steamboat etc. they had Terry Funk part time for a little while, but for the most part, if you look at all of the wrestling companies that were active at that time, nobody did more with what they had then Smoky Mountain. I really hate that Jim close the doors if I had a time machine I would definitely go back and tell him to just wait six or seven months and you will never have to work full-time for WWE ever.
ty
Any plans for a Pam Lawson shoot interview?
trust me if the gangstas didnt fit in anywhere else they def fit in at marietta ga... i spent the first 23 yrs of my life there and know that for a fact lol marietta is a gangsta city
That's where the yuppies live. The gangstas would have fit in, in East Point
@@canedewey756 yeah the wankstas in east point are f46s wannabes they act like they are hard and cry if anything happens
Is this a new one or the same from several months back ?
Satin Jacket = Instant Respect
You can walk the meanest street with one of those on.
Suspect this has been posted before? but 44:48 for Brian Hildebrand

What a lovely contribution. Thanks for not sparing us any details with that one.
