Adonis got over with that gimmick. He drew tremendous heat and understood ring psychology.

The Doctor of Style is your Uncle? Oh man, that's awesome. I loved watching him work. He was a great manager. I also enjoyed watching his Dad in the Mid Atlantic territory.

You are the Nephew of the Jive Soul Bro? Is it true that he always lied to his friends? :P Seriously though, great story man. I can imagine that being related to somebody in the wrestling business, especially during the WWFs Golden era of the 80s and early 90s, you must have experienced some great stuff there. Hope the reverend is still well and healthy. :)

An ape vs a homosexual in the 80's. Both acts were over with the crowd. Today the company would get torn to shreds.

Adrian died too soon Underrated indeed

Brilliant until he met Spivey.

@@matthewgabbard6415 Vince really did have it in for Rhodes. Making him wear polka dot ring gear. Naming Million Dollar man's valet Virgil. It wouldn't surprise me at all if the Adonis gay character was another jab at Rhodes. Just check out some of Dustys early promos.

He messed up that shear spot in wm3 though

Fantastic time…
