Back in the days before Monday and Tuesday night live wrestling shows, wrestling was a regional operation with TV tapings held in smaller buildings and the shows were syndicated throughout the region. On those shows, the stars generally didn't wrestle each other unless there was an angle that was being promoted for house shows. For TV, the stars usually wrestled lesser known wrestlers, commonly referred to back in the day as jobbers. The NWA had their group, including guys such as Mike Jackson and Pat Rose. In the AWA, names like George "Scrapiron" Gdasky, Jake "The Milkman" Milliman and Steve's trainer Sonny Rogers were weekly TV fixtures. In the WWF, you saw guys like SD "Special Delivery" Jones, Barry O, "The Duke Of Dorchester" Pete Doherty and numerous others. Among that group was tonight's guest, Dusty Wolfe.

Dusty started in the WWF in 1987, shortly before the scandal that almost destroyed the company broke. He used the name Dusty until 1989, when a certain "Common man" got signed and he was changed to Dale Wolfe. He also wrestled for Fritz Von Erich, the NWA and WWC in Puerto Rico. He also rose above jobber status as after the late Matt Borne left the WWF he was one of  five people who took up the mantle as Doink The Clown.

After he left the business he went back to school and now is referred to as PROFESSOR Wolfe as he entered the field of acedemia. He is also a published author with several books and essays about our industry.
