Like most years I made it to one night of the annual WIDOWFEST event. So named cause the old owners of BZ was Pops Widowmaker Williamson.
Rode up with two buddies. Got there early and spent the time going around seeing a pile of guys I haven't seen in a long time.
Show opened up with the BZ hall of fame ceremony. Last few years they do this. And whoever gets inducted gets a ring and gives a speech.This year was a class of 5
Malek Avalon-Pretty sure he lives in Florida now. But he worked under a different nname 20 years ago in BZ. Was inducted by Prince Tavion,Malek's old manager,and Faroh of Phunk.
Dynamite Jay Andrews-Jay is the owner of Pro Wrestling EGo. Wrestled and managed for years. Was inducted by the Abby Street Boot Boys. Who is a tag team where 2 of the 3 members are fully retired from wrestling. And the only one left mostly does MMA.
Mississippi Madman Logan Creed-This isnt the Logan Creed from GA. This is a dude near my age that is from the Jackson area. Wrestled for years in a red kool aid man themed singlet,carried a stuffed duck to the ring(named mr quackers) and ssadly got a bad knee injury. Pretty much retired from the ring. but films and does interviews sometimes. He was inducted by Jay Andrews.
Ron FATT HARDY Horn-@wildojynx yes this is the dude from that XOW show in 2010. Ron is a local legend. Dude was one of the best heels in MS for hell close to 10 years. Ron had his issues and ended up changing his life. He retired last year. Was inducted by Johnny Morton.
THE BULLGOD MINOTAUR-Minotaur aka Brian Falcon ,was a masked wrestler. Last year he had his last match. Dude is in amazing shape and told me a few times "I figure it was time to get out while I still can get around and not have a major injury." He was inducted by his wife and his brother.
