The father of Jeff Jarrett had a lot more impact in the world of wrestling than casual fans realize.  Jerry Jarrett was a top star in the Memphis territory holding multiple championships in the Volunteer State, but he slowly worked his way into to becoming a promoter, and by the decade’s end, ran one of the tightest organizations.  Jerry “The King” Lawler appears to represent Memphis in terms of the WWE Hall of Fame, but an induction for Jarrett seals its importance.

Best known to the fans in America as the Spanish Announce Team who constantly watched their announce table get destroyed on 3,000 consecutive WWE pay per views, Hugo Savinovitch and Carlos Cabrera have been the Spanish voice of the WWE for years.  Cabrera was a former newscaster and Savinovitch a former wrestler and in their brief intro at every event they showcase an exuberance that makes English only speakers wish they could understand them.

An accomplished wrestler in his day, George Scott’s main contribution to wrestling may have been behind the scenes.  He was the booker for Jim Crockett Promotions in the 70’s, but his main contribution in terms of Stamford would be his organizational and booking skill for the inaugural Wrestlemania and other television programs.   He wasn’t with Vince for a long time, but it was valuable service that he gave.

Although both of his sons (Dory Jr. & Terry) far eclipsed his in ring accomplishments, Dory Funk Sr. was a decent wrestler in his own right.  Dory became a very effective promoter in the Amarillo area and made that region a hotbed for Texas wrestling.  His sons are already in the WWE Hall of Fame, and Dory Sr. would not be out of place with them.
