RIP: Jackie Fargo

Not in Hall of Fame News
Another wrestling legend was lost today when it was reported that Memphis legend, Jackie Fargo passed away today at the age of 85. Fargo would win many titles in his long career, mostly in the NWA in promotions in the South. Fargo would be a multi-time tag team champion with his kayfabe brother, Don Fargo, and eventually would settle in as a mainstay on the Memphis scene, where he would mentor Jerry “The King” Lawler to greatness.
Some wrestling historians have pegged Jackie Fargo as one of the inventors of the “Hardcore” style, as he was one of the first to have wild brawls in the ring. Perhaps his greatest gift to wrestling was the “Fargo Strut” which is copied by many wrestlers today.
Although Jackie Fargo had no real association with the WWE, we have him ranked at #67 on our WWE list, and as the organization has inducted performers with similar resumes (Abdullah the Butcher). We offer our condolences to the family and friends of Jackie Fargo at this time.
