A superstar in the All Japan Promotion, Tommy “Jumbo” Tsuruta was the man who unified the three major champions in the promotion and was the first ever “Triple Crown” Champion.  As impressive as that was, it was just a portion of what he would accomplish in professional wrestling.

Many current wrestling fans may not be familiar with the name of Jackie Fargo, but long before Jerry “The King” Lawler ruled the Southern wrestling scene Jackie Fargo was perfecting the art of the wrestling brawl and was a star south of the Mason Dixon Line.

When Ray Traylor first emerged on the national scene it was a large suit clad bodyguard, Big Bubba Rogers.  When he arrived to the WWF, he donned the gimmick of a sadistic prison guard (a job he actually had) and achieved his best success.

In a business dominated by athletic men a star emerged while doing very little physically and saying even less.  How did Elizabeth do this?  Certainly she was beautiful, but there are a lot of beautiful women.  What made her special was that she was classy, shy, sexy and sweet all at the same time.  She was the girl next door who you wanted to bring home to meet your parents during the day and take home to your bedroom at night.  You wanted to jump through the television and help her when she was in trouble.  No other woman before or after her could illicit this type of reaction.  She is probably a long shot to make the Hall, but it can never be forgotten just how big a star she was in the last half of the 1980’s in the World Wrestling Federation.
