    "Sylvester" was Plowboy Frazier's pet rooster. Plowboy left the First Family so Jimmy Hart and crew ate his rooster. Only on Memphis Rasslin' baby!!!

    How many people didn't believe that Koko was a heel?

      Yep. If you only knew him from the Then-WWF, then you'd of never known that he'd been a Heel Wrestler, several years before that.

    Does anyone else here that there are a bit more cheers for "The Mouth of The South" than there were boos?? That is because he was so much more ahead of his time than most of the managers in the business at the time.

    Jimmy Hart really was "The Mouth of the South." Lol.

    Jimmy Hart. He knew how to stir the crowd up big time. He was great

  • @ronaldshank7589

    For a bunch of Rulebreakers, Jimmy Hart and the First Family sure had a lot of fun here! Seeing The Dream Machine with a piece of Chicken Skin hanging from the side of his mouth was hilarious! You can tell, though, that Jimmy Hart, as bad as he could be at times, was still a riot! He pushed people to the edge...and then pushed 'em OVER the edge, in terms of human emotions. He did his job, and did it well. That's why he's still mentioned, revered, and famous, even here in good ol' 2023!

    I love Chick Donavon's Hair Helmet!

    • @ronaldshank7589
      @ronaldshank7589 Год назад +1

      Hair Helmet...I love the way you put that! It did look like some sort of a fancy helmet, didn't it? I wonder how much hairspray he used, to get such a coif of hair to hold in place like that? Looks like he used at least a can of hairspray a day. That hair is so stiff, it looks like you'd need a chisel and a hammer, to get through it!

    Future WWF entrance music of the 'Macho Man' Randy Savage Pomp and Circumstance, always for me anyway will be associated with the M.M., one of those rare guys I liked as a baby face or heel.

  • @philipdefibaugh7127

    WWE fans would be shocked but for Mid South Wrestling fans not so much. Koko was later a viscious heel in the USWA.

    Crazy to think that i was born the same night this happened.

      Happy Birthday to you! I personally love being alive, no matter what has happened to me. I thank The Good Lord Upstairs for every breath that he gives me!

    Nice touch to use what would be Randy Savage's WWF theme music there by Dream Machine.

    • @SethH1982
      @SethH1982 8 лет назад +1

      Gorgeous George was using Pomp and Circumstance when Randy was a toddler in the 1950s.

    • @ronaldshank7589
      @ronaldshank7589 Год назад

      Here's a thought:Can you imagine what would've happened, had The Dream Machine, and "The Macho Man" Randy Savage, ever teamed up? They woulda been nigh-on unstoppable! Both of those Gentlemen were definitely Men of Power! They both had plenty of charisma to go around, too. The most important element that they both had, was that they had the "It" factor. These Men were tailormade for Wrestling...and they knew it!
      May they both Rest In Peace and Power!!!

    It's not lost on me that this chicken angle was done with Koko B. Ware in attendance. Still funny, though.

      I'm not sure if you're joking
      or being serious, but that wasn't
      Dusty Rhodes ...... That was
      The Dream Machine, Troy Graham,
      who was always ear candy on the mic.

      Koko Ware was also nicknamed 'Sweet Brown Sugar' and donned the mask as 'Stagger Lee', he even formed the tag team with Norvell Austin as the PYT's (Pretty Young Things)
