Adding comments for the algorithm. Jimmy is hands down one of the nicest guys I met while I was wrestling. Just a genuinely nice guy. Got to hang out with him and his wife two years in a row on his birthday. They remembered me and were just a lot of fun to be around. Jimmy doesn't drink but he has some amazing stories and will give you knowledge, if any young people in the business get a chance just be respectful and listen to him.
Love jimmy . outside the ring the man has a huge heart and will sign as many pics and autographs as u want . Jim got me and my wife drunk as piss week ago at his bar in daytona . We sat watched raw with him and went to check out he already paid our 120$ tab . He hung out with us from 8pm til 1am like he knew us his whole life
That’s when you get the best of the best. When you let each person create their own persona. You’ll know who really loves and is into the business and you know who is dedicated to their craft along with getting some unique and unforgettable characters.
In my book, Jimmy Hart’s class was the best. The inductees of that class were all guys who were on top when I started becoming a big wrestling fan, and also of note, everyone who got inducted that year was alive when the ceremony happened. Never again has there been a class consisting entirely of people who were still living.
psychosooner1 are you serious!!!?!? whats the name of jimmy hart's bar/hotel? ill go there when in Daytona in the spring too! Would love to meet that man
Great interview baby. There's a story from Ric Flairs book saying how after the big events or to celebrate someone winning a title the wrestlers would all get together and get a bunch of girls and drugs and party real hard. Flair says Jimmy would not drink, smoke, or do any drugs, but he could not pass up a ring rat. Jimmy was clean as a whistle but the other wrestlers and the girls would all snort coke and Jimmy would pound the crap out of the women. He was addicted to sex. Can't really blame him. I would have done the same thing
toben42 that’s what you’re supposed to do. I couldn’t stand heenan. Looking back... I love him bc he was entertaining . He was an epic villain and that’s what made him entertaining
He should definitely be on anyone's Top 5 list of best managers, in my opinion. Awesome talker, very unique gimmick, always putting his guys over instead of putting himself over, and all his guys said he was a legit manager and cheerleader to them. Personally, I think he's up there with Bobby.
@@jonathanturbide2232 i think jimmy is up there, but Bobby the brain n jim cornette are 1 n 2..jimmy had a great run as the guy, everyone just wanted to slap n when he got caught by hogan et al his dancing feet were a good work.
I still love Jimmy's and the Gentry's version of Cinnamon Girl 1970 and his Gentry's version wild world better than Cat Stevens version got so much love and Life to it
I believe Jimmy Hart himself said that Andy Kaufman came up with it, I don't remember what they were doing but Jimmy kept talking so much that Andy couldn't get a word in, and he said "They might as well call him the mouth of the south!"
Owen Daniels As much as I was a Davey Boy Smith fan, you're right. I thought it was a British thing until I saw William Regal's promo. That broke my ignorrance indeed. I was alittle bit if not quite besmirched
I've lived in Calgary for almost 40 years and I saw Dynamite cut great promos in here. Especially his promos on Davey Boy when he first got to Calgary. One of my favorite promo lines of all-time came from Dynamite talking about "the great man above" and other religious statements that led you to believe he was talking about God but then he let it be known he was talking about his weasel manager JR Foley and it got a great heated pop from the crowd. But yeah...his WWF promos were lame.
@@KoolKumasi Who gives a fuck what the geographical location was?!? A good promo is a good promo regardless of where it's delivered. Or was this your sophomoric and juvenile attempt at trolling for some sort of Canada sucks heat? YAWN.
I ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT SOMETIME IN HIS WRESTLING, MANAGER CAREER, THAT JIMMY WOULD PRESENT A GIMMICK DANCER WRESTLER...JIMMY WAS THE LEAD SINGER FOR THE MUSIC GROUP THE GENTRYS IN 1965 WITH A SONG CALLED...KEEP ON DANCING !

Lucky!
It sucks that his bar is now closed. It would have been cool to visit one day.
Damn, that's the kind of story to tell your grandkids. Of course they'd ask "who's Jimmy Hart?", but what do these little shits know, anyway, right?!
lucky....the stories you mustve heard
Jimmy Hart was a great heel manager in the WWF.
Jimmy was a good singer also.
It's always cool to listen to stories from
Legends

Jimmy Hart should be inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame!
He was many years ago
2005
He was inducted in the same class as Hulk Hogan and Rowdy Roddy Piper.
He's already in the Hall of Fame!

Yeah I still miss the Saturday morning wrestling show that was in Memphis.
Gotta love the Mouth of the South baby!!!
Jimmy is a very good man.i know him. We adopted his dog recently ❤️
I got to hang out with Jimmy at his hotel/bar in Daytona FL last summer. He's a cool cat.
Met him at a wrestling show once. Friendly guy.
psychosooner1 are you serious!!!?!? whats the name of jimmy hart's bar/hotel? ill go there when in Daytona in the spring too! Would love to meet that man
I met him & Maria Kanellis at an appearance, they were both cool as hell.
I met him in Atlanta, so stuck up and a total asshole in the Marriott hotel bar. So selfish and he was NEVER a superstar wrestler just some manager
Jimmy Hart's Hall of Fame Bar and Tiki Deck
Great interview baby.

Great stuff baby!
Everyone always has a vice
He seems like a cool cat. But God I used to hate him as a heel manager.
Naturally cos nobody liked heels but at the end of the day, they're all story lines.
That means he did his job very well.
toben42 that’s what you’re supposed to do. I couldn’t stand heenan. Looking back... I love him bc he was entertaining . He was an epic villain and that’s what made him entertaining
Same here as a young child I did not like Jimmy Heart, but now appeciate him because he was very good at what he did!
AGREED
I wish that they would have let Jimmy loose in the WWF like in Memphis.
Jimmy is the best and deserves hall of fame
I cant believe he isnt in the hall of fame
2005 he was inducted into the HOF
Probably the best manager in my opinion
He should definitely be on anyone's Top 5 list of best managers, in my opinion. Awesome talker, very unique gimmick, always putting his guys over instead of putting himself over, and all his guys said he was a legit manager and cheerleader to them. Personally, I think he's up there with Bobby.

This man saved my life more than once!
How?
@@priyadarshidash4353 Just by existing. He gives me hope for people.
@@scottfree9601 oh that's nice 😍😀
@@scottfree9601 weird
I still love Jimmy's and the Gentry's version of Cinnamon Girl 1970 and his Gentry's version wild world better than Cat Stevens version got so much love and Life to it
Stay on him, baby.
Beautiful move, baby
Who created the nickname "The Mouth of the South"? Manager nicknames went a long way toward their longevity.
Muhammad Ali was the original
I believe Jimmy Hart himself said that Andy Kaufman came up with it, I don't remember what they were doing but Jimmy kept talking so much that Andy couldn't get a word in, and he said "They might as well call him the mouth of the south!"
used to be wrestler Tony Cologne--i think he made a smart switch
For those that don't know, Man Mountain Link would eat RAW whole chickens. I can see why Jimmy hated it..
oh so less annoying as a human being then his gimmick
🤮
Mouth Of The South
He speaks hella fast but I dig what stories he's saying!!
Jimmy and Jerry Lawler went to high school together, same class
Bulldogs shoulda turned heel at some point and had jimmy manage them...since they couldn't cut a promo to save their lives...
Owen Daniels As much as I was a Davey Boy Smith fan, you're right. I thought it was a British thing until I saw William Regal's promo. That broke my ignorrance indeed. I was alittle bit if not quite besmirched
In Portland Wrestling. Dynamite Kid could cut a promo.
I've lived in Calgary for almost 40 years and I saw Dynamite cut great promos in here. Especially his promos on Davey Boy when he first got to Calgary. One of my favorite promo lines of all-time came from Dynamite talking about "the great man above" and other religious statements that led you to believe he was talking about God but then he let it be known he was talking about his weasel manager JR Foley and it got a great heated pop from the crowd.

Great Stuff !
Jimmy Hart is awesome. Very successful manager and hard worker for the business.
When I was a small lad for some reason, I used think Jimmy Hart and Jermaine Dupri looked alike😂😂😂😂
What? Omg!
😂😂
Legend.
Bobby The Brain Heenan, the mouth of the South Jimmy Hart, Shawn Moody a k a Paul bearer, Miss Elizabeth, that's my All-Star manager line up!
No Corny?
@@gqsmoove87 Jim Cornett? Yeah. I forgot about him. I liked him as a play by play guy.
Sounds like Kenny Fucking Powers.
I ALWAYS THOUGHT THAT SOMETIME IN HIS WRESTLING, MANAGER CAREER, THAT JIMMY WOULD PRESENT A GIMMICK DANCER WRESTLER...JIMMY WAS THE LEAD SINGER FOR THE MUSIC GROUP THE GENTRYS IN 1965 WITH A SONG CALLED...KEEP ON DANCING !
Beautiful Baby!!!
Man mountain Harris/Black Bart still slobbers over everything.
What's his most favorite to manage?
He said it in this interview clip: Jerry Lawler.
See them comments added? JIMMY DON'T THINK HE KNOSES...ADX8😎 coco b-ware
0:43 the truth
not gaudy......🤣
at one point do you just stop dying your hair or shave all that shit.
1,000 like.
He's a pretty bad as a musician too
K
His interviews are boring to me
At least he's being interviewed.
MrJusone It's cos he's one of the nicest guys in the business. He's not going to really bury anyone
