JYD was another guy who got misused thanks to politics.
He could have been an even bigger star,but alot of the top
guys saw his potential to be a new top guy (or should I say
his already big base carried over from NWA and new fans) &
had him crushed before he could steal their spots (The HHH
Syndrome's grandfather).
His merchandise was always the top seller; if not it was a
very close second. He did TV shows,commercials,and was
really one of the few wrestlers at the time to gain mainst-
ream celebrity status; known by the general public,actors,
etc... His feuds with Race,Adonis,and Roberts were classic
as well - although I feel NWA used him better.
May He Rest In Peace
