    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

    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.

      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.

    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

      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.

    Thats why I liked Jimmy as a manager, he was like Precious Paul Ellering. He had his shtick, but as quickly as he could, he'd let the wrestler or wrestlers talk and do their thing, then he'd finish up by plugging the card or sum up why you'd want to buy a ticket to watch the match.

      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.
