ERN Presents W.A.R.-Wrestling Authority Radio-Tracy Smothers

Thanks go out to our good friend Tina Gant who got Tracy back on for us.

There are certain names that remind wrestling fans of certain territories or promotions. When it comes to wrestling in the South, the name of Tracy Smothers, much like his contemporaries Tommy "Wildfire" Rich, "Mad Dog" Buzz Sawyer, Ole and Arn Anderson, makes you think of a time when cable TV was young and wrestling fans were being exposed to wrestling in different areas of the country and certain regional promotions started to go national.

Tracy is probably best known to fans as one half of The Wild Eyed Southern Boys with Steve Armstrong. Tracy and Steve wrestled in various promotions throughout the South. Tracy also was the inaugural Smoky Mountain Wrestling Beat The Champ Television Champion and was part of the faction called The THUGS. After a short sint in the then WWF Tracy moved to Paul Heyman's ECW where he became the leader of The Full Blooded Italians, with the joke being that only one member of the team, Little Guido was in fact actually Italian.

Tracy has also run several wrestling schools where he trains and guides the next generation of the business. We are happy to bring Tracy back to our airwaves and hope you will enjoy hearing from this great star.
