I remember when Skandar Akbar brought him to Mid-South Wrestling.  He was a wild man! 

What did he die from?

[KFDM COOP]

Cancer i think.

[NedDog]

Ahh, sad news.

I read he was either 68-69 years old.  I never knew he was that old.  So when I first seen him he was already closing on 50.

Sure is nice scenery in the background. A little calm for the missing link.

Top 5 Mid South / Houston Wrestling    Wrestlers

1. JYD's alter ego - Stagger Lee

2. The Mongolian Stomper & The Missing Link (The great Kabuki also fits with these 2

3. Jim Cornett - The tennis racket was priceless.  Get on youtube and watch some of his interviews with Paul Boesch

4. The sheephearders.... (became the bushwackers in wwf)  funny as heck!

5. KAMALA!  Kamala was a beast.

hahaha  this list makes me want to be 12 years old all over again!

I loved Mid-South Wrestling!  It's hard for me to pick a top 5, but just off the top of my head, I'd say (in no particular order) . . .

• Paul Orndorf
  
• Hacksaw Duggan (when he first came in, he was crazy!)
  The Rock & Roll Express
  JYD (of course)
  Barry Windham
  

Even though MId-South was independent, they often brought in wrestlers from other organizations in Florida, Texas, Tennessee, Georgia, etc.  That was a great promotion, and of course, it is where Jim Ross got his start.

The Rock and Roll Express vs Midnight Express feud had to be one of the best in wrestling history
