They don't get any tougher than Hangman Bobby Jaggers. This was the type of interview which you know right away the wrestler could care less if he burns any bridges. He often repeats that phrase during our interview with him, "what can they do to me now, I am out of the business." If you want to hear for the first time ever what really happened to Bruiser Brody in Puerto Rico in July 1989 this is one hell of a interview. Bobby was there the night he was murdered and discusses what he saw backstage and in the ring. He gives a chilling recount of what went down on the infamous night. You wont believe what really happened and who protected the guy who stabbed him. Bobby has worked all over the territories during the 80's and has stories about SouthWest Championship wrestling, Memphis, Portland and NWA. We covered his entire career from start to finish and any fan of old school wrestling will want to hear what he has to say.
Bobby has some messages to Ric Flair and Hulk Hogan that I don't think they will enjoy. Bobby talks about also breaking into wrestling around the same time as Brody. Your going to hear some great Funk stories as well from down in TX during the early days.Look out Roddy Piper and Adrian Adonis as Bobby don't like you guys and you will hear why when we talk about his run in Portland. What does Bobby think about Billy Jack Haynes?
One of my favorite promotions was Southwest and Bobby talks about what it was like to work with Scott Casey and the Sheepherders..Why he did not like Tully Blanchard. In fact he talks about Tully and Ted Dibase in present day and why he thinks what they are doing now is a work. You will hear some great road stories as well from Bobby.
The highlight of the interview is his story on the death of Bruiser Brody. Besides that he has tons of behind the scene stories from NWA, Puerto Rico, Florida, Bill Watts and all of the great promotions that he worked for in the 80's. If you love road stories and behind the scenes gossip that you never heard before your going to want to get the Bobby Jaggers shoot interview!!
