As unfortunate as it seemed,  Tracy Smothers has passed way this morning.  He was fighting a very hard battle for the last 2 years 

Right now in Heaven, the divorce rate has skyrocketed.  I would argue he deserves his own thread and that isn't even for his SMW and WCW work.

I'll be watching The Midnight Express vs. The Southern Boys at WCW The Great American Bash 1990 later today.

The FBI in ECW is one of the all-time best ridiculous gimmicks. I used to love them unfurling the Italian flag with Tommy "Wildfire" Rich's face in the middle of it. Their promos at Philly landmarks associated with our vast Italian-American community were also the stuff of legend.

HOLY SHIT GREGG, I came here to mention that! 

 

Tracy was an all-time Southern legend and an all-around great performer. That tag with the Midnights is a contender for best tag match of the decade. 

 

Tracy also taught us all what THUG stands for and for that I thank him.

I was lucky enough to meet Tracy Smothers 2 times. First time he was doing a surprise run in,dressed like a woman,at a Memphis Legends show in Lula MS. Got a pic with him that night but it is so blurry.

Then in 2015 or 2016 we were filming and doing commentary for a Wrestle Birmingham show. During the middle of a match Tracy came out of the locker room and sat at the commentary table with us for a match. So snagged a quick picture with him. Dude was so damn nice and just laid back country boy style.
