Here's a few pics from when I was working for Pro Wrestling Mid South out of Dyersburg, TN. It used to be an NWA territory and it's run by "Golden Boy" Greg Anthony, a solid dude. I met him when I was doing radio and pretty much offered to sweet the ring mat just to be part of a show one time. Instead, he let me become their ring announcer and offered to train me in the ring for free. This is what I spent the pandemic doing and I hate that I wasn't able to keep making the 5 hour commute every Saturday once I got the job I'm currently at.

Had a lot of fun, met some great people, and saw a lot of talent that the world hasn't discovered yet. The first guy I met when I pulled up to the Herb Welch Wrestleplex on November 7, 2020 was "Space Cowboy" Stacee Alexander, who went on to wrestle on NWA Powerrr. Damn near broke my neck like 30 times during training, but I'd do it all over again. The first time I took a bump was that day and I remember laying in that ring, feeling like I took a baseball bat to the back and having my head bounce off the mat like a basketball, and I was so freakin happy. Good times.

Not a picture, but here's one of the cool things I got to do. For a little context, Greg Anthony is basically to Dyersburg, TN what the Von Erichs were to Dallas. The week before, they ran an angle where "The Big Picture" Michael Jablonski hit Anthony with a heart punch, after Anthony had previously had life-saving heart surgery in real life. Everyone in town knew about the surgery and it was a big deal that he was even still able to wrestle. So basically, it was attempted murder in front of the whole town. The fans in the wrestleplex damn-near rioted. Me, the announcer, had to usher all the fans out of the building while Greg's wife and kids (and the Golden Granny) rushed the ring. The fans bought into it so much that they called a real ambulance to the building. After the fans were gone, Jablonski went into hiding in the upstairs locker room, and the EMTs got Greg backstage, I sat with him as he may or may not have worked the real EMTs. Literally everyone bought the whole angle. It was one of the coolest angles I've ever seen, I couldn't believe the kayfabe was so strong in 2020, and to actually be part of it was one of the coolest experiences of my life.
