Redneck wrasslin' at its finest.

Aha! That was the famous Don Carson strut that I remember from many moons ago! Funny stuff!

It may surprise some to learn that Don was a babyface in a few places, like Birmingham, AL. He seemed like a really nice, decent guy out of the ring.

Carson could flat out sell.

Question: When did Carson hook up as manager to the Mongolian Stomper? I had no idea he was a wrestler.

I agree with Lawlersarmy about Condrey adding the beard and trimming the hair.

[lawlersarmy]

Condry had to have been the ugliest man in wrestling at the time, Looked way too much like a face. Glad he went with the beard soon after this. Channel Extreme, would you happen to know what happened to Georgous George Jr. after his Memphis run? Had a good stable, but Stomper went to GA. to be managed by Carson, and Assasins became unmanaged until Jimmy Hart a few years later. I don't remember seeing him in another independent after he left Memphis.

@lawlersarmy - I tried to find information on G.G. Jr. so I could post a link here with the video, but there isn't much info on him--mostly trivia--and it's all scattered.

I agree, Condrey looks like an old lesbian woman. LOL!

@ChannelExtreme Sawyer was in his rookie days/year here, no?

[ChannelExtreme]

@Abyono - You are correct, sir. But this wan't his debut, he wrestled elsewhere prior to coming to Memphis. There's a link to his wiki page in the description (above). :)

Isn't that Wayne Ferris speaking aka the Honkytonk Man

[CadillacL]

man, in Buzz's "Mad-dog" era, he would've stomped Carson.

[ChannelExtreme]

@CadillacL - Carson's a joke. Robert Fuller's personality is the only thing Don Carson ever contributed to the sport. LOL :D

@ChannelExtreme Was born in '71. Being from Louisiana I grew up on Georgia, World Class & of course Mid-South. Always loved Sawyer & Fuller.
