Memphis always was a great wrestling town.

"Rasslin" was integral to the local culture.

[FeliciaFledi]

I have got to see this movie. I practically grew up in Buddy Wayne's house. We lived on the same street and my best friend since I was 2 was his step daughter. This brings back memories of us playing in his back yard, surrounded by the wrestling ring, weight benches and big men in small underwear! :-)

Just finished watching this and it was great, Memphis seemed like the old school ECW, lots of blood and wild matches and great characters, great interviews, Jackie Fargo kind of came off as a crazy old coot,but je was hilarious. LOL @ Andy Kaufman making fun of the Memphis people in an old clip,wonder if i can find that on youtube?

[MrBillywicks]

who is sid haig ?

[Naitch35]

Just got mine, can't wait! I never get tired of watching a lot of the old Memphis wrestling clips here on You Tube either. Most of you probably know this but look up ChannelExtreme and GShea to get your fix. They both have TONS of stuff uploaded.

Wish they had gotten Jim Cornette. His knowledge of Memphis wrestling is infinite.

I can MOST-DEFINITELY see why ppl STILL adore "The Fabulous 1" jackie Fargo...The guy's charisma just oozes off of him & thru the screen...I cannot believe he didn't go in2 Hollywood & become a HUGE movie/TV star...
