I wish Bobby Heenan would've been on commentary with Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler.

People don't realise how Raw Bobby could've gotten on the mic in the attitude era.

Dixie wrestling turned into Mid south.


Dixie wrestling followed the Charlie Mac show on Sunday night. Sid Crocker was the announcer.

Some of the greats from that time period:

Danny Little Bear and Kit Fox (Tag Team)
Hay Stacks Calhoun
The Dalton James Gang
The Great Maphisto
Sputnick Monroe

Good times.

Grew up in Memphis in the 80s , my dad frequently took me and my buddies to Monday night wrestling at the mid south coliseum. I loved the king Lawler, my best friend loved a Austin Idol. You had Dutch Mantel, the Moondogs, handsome Jimmy valiant , Bill Dundee, I could go on and on, lol
