Once in a great while, a shoot int erview will come along that has everyone in the entire wrestling industry talking. The fans, the boys, the wrestling historians, the people behind the scenes…everyone. RF VIDEO’s exclusive new shoot interview with Billy Jack Haynes is one of those legendary shoots. This exhaustive shoot uncovered every aspect of Billy Jack’s long career and opened a floodgate of unbelievable – and never heard before – stories. Always known as a shy, soft speaker during his working days as master of the full nelson, Billy Jack lets in all hang out on this jaw dropping shoot and we guarantee that this is one of the all time great interviews. Starting his career in the Pacific North West, Billy Jack always had that can’t-miss, blue chipper aura about him. Much like the troubled Kerry Von Erich, the expectations for Billy Jack were tremendous and he quickly rose to the top of the cards. This meteoric rise to fame brought with it all the problems no one in the industry talks about on the record. RF VIDEO goes even farther back in Billy Jack’s history, to the shocking revelation of his molestation by a family member and the devastating fall out. This particular segment of the shoot will affect even the most cold hearted and jaded wrestling fan. Billy Jack then talked about working for the exploding Portland, Oregon territory and gave inside stories on all the top names there including Roddy Piper, Tom Zenk and Dynamite Kid. Moving on to Billy Jack’s time in the Florida territory, we got a story on the death of Eddie Graham that has never been heard anywhere else. Billy Jack explains in detail why he feels Graham shot himself and backs up his theory by discussing the letters Graham had written to Billy shortly before his death. You want shocking? This shoot delivers in a major way. Billy also talks about all the top names in Florida at the time including “The American Dream” Dusty Rhodes, Kevin Sullivan, Wahoo McDaniel and Barry Windham. The stories with Dusty Rhodes don’t stop there as Billy Jack goes into detail about working for the Crocketts at Starrcade and an actual physical altercation between Billy Jack and Jim Crocket before Haynes went backstage looking to confront Dusty Rhodes! Old school wrestling fans are going to go out of their mind while watching this shoot and hearing all the fantastic tales of the old territories! Many of RF VIDEO’s dedicated fans have been waiting years for Billy Jack to talk about his time in the WWF and this shoot does not disappoint! Billy talks about every facet of his WWF career, including his infamous WrestleMania III match with Hercules Hernandez and why it was so stiff.
