  • After 4 years as a face, Mulligan went to WWE as a heel. He was good no matter which side he was on. Travis' career ended after an automobile accident. Like Magnum T.A., who knows what kind of career he would have had? Magnum was scheduled to win the NWA Title from Ric Flair as Starrcade '86. I have heard that they were to begin the storyline for the switch at the following night's TV tapings. Sad.

  • I thought Steve Travis had potential. He was a jobber--but a good wrestler. I remember the Magnum TA accident, and thought it was an angle. Then, when he never wrestled again and did commentary I thought "wow. Must've really happened!"

  • Steve Travis was a fantastic athlete!! We miss you!!

  • "miss" as in "miss seeing you wrestle" or "miss" as in "he died?"

    I ask because if you meant "he died"--even though I posted the video-- I didn't know he died. If you meant "miss seeing you wrestle," I do too.

  • No, Steve's very much still with us; he retired after a very serious car accident. He now walks with a cane and is known as the "Junkyard Junkie." Check him out on the web!

  • oh! Now I feel better. I was going to say--I didn't THINK he died. Thanks for clearing that up for me!

  • These days wrestlers have to have a signature winning move. Travis seemed to have a signature losing hold (or, at least, signature suffering hold) -- the trap claw. Blackjack punishes him expertly.

  • I miss the days of Spectrum wrestling on Prism. Went to the Spectrum as a kid to see the WWF.

  • Long Live The Spectrum!

    Long Live PRISM! The Greatest Cable Channel In The World!

  • RIP The Spectrum

  • Me too. Barry IMO is my favorite.

  • does anybody have any footage of the old mid atlantic matches between blackjack mulligan and big john studd?

  • Tough pair of wrestlers

  • Travis was more of what is known as a journeyman. He won some and lost some. He would win against the regular jobbers, but never could get over the hump against the top wrestlers. I saw Magnum after his accident at his home arena in Feb. 1988 (The Scope in Norfolk, VA). He was in the corner of Dusty Rhodes, Lex Luger, & Ole Anderson vs. Ric Flair, Arn Anderson, & Tully Blanchard wielding a baseball bat. But the Jeff Hardy mishaps are angles, though.
