January 21st 2020 Jimmy Valiant WWE Hall of Famer will be our special guest for the entire show, and there WILL BE surprises!!!







Valiant had entered the WWWF in 1971 as a babyface, originally known as "Gentleman Jim Valiant," but quickly switched to heel.[4] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_V...)  He had title matches against champion Pedro Morales in secondary arenas, such as Philadelphia, and feuded with short-term tag partner Chief Jay Strongbow. Jimmy and his kayfabe brother Johnny (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_...)  held the tag belts from 1974 to 1975 and main evented Madison Square Garden against Chief Jay Strongbow and Bruno Sammartino (Strongbow and Sammartino won 2 out of 3 falls, but one fall via disqualification; hence the belts didn't change hands).

During the late 1970s – early 1980s, Valiant was a central player in the Memphis, Tennessee (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memphis...)  wrestling scene. He feuded (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feud_(p...)  regularly with Jerry Lawler (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_L...)  and teamed with Bill Dundee (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Du...)  to dominate the tag team matches of that time. He even recorded a song, "The Ballad of Handsome Jimmy", which was used in wrestling arenas as his entry music and became a mainstay on some Memphis radio stations for a few years. Despite the Memphis promotion desperately wanting to keep him in Memphis full-time, even offering to buy him a house in Memphis according to Jerry Lawler (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_L...) 's biography, Valiant decided to move on after holding the AWA Southern Heavyweight title for roughly a year. Valiant also spent a brief amount of time in Jim Crockett Promotions (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Cro...)  in the late 1970s as the heel "King James Valiant" managed by Lord Alfred (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord_Al...)
