    He looks like he had no business being there until he opens his mouth and gold comes pouring out. Absolute natural

      One of the reasons why he was so good at getting heat. You can imagine the audience thinking "What business does this scrawny little geek have anywhere near wrestling?!"

    If I live to be 200 years old, I will never forget Sherri. I was on several shows with her in the Anniston area back in the day. She was a total sweetheart and a consummate performer. The funny part is, the first night she was there I had no idea who she was until she put her hair up and got about half her makeup on. The realization hit me like a ton of bricks. I'd been talking to her for half an hour. My favorite photo from my 18 years in the ring is one of Sherri and I standing in the ring that night.

    Yes, and the crowd chanted "You're still hot" at her HOF induction. I'm sure she loved it.

    Sherri still, to this very day, is my very favorite woman in pro wrestling. She was such a good worker and such a convincing heel. I hate that we were deprived of her wonderful self, but her memory will live on forever. Rest easy Sherri. You were absolutely sensational. ❤️

    No female ever worked as hard as Sherri did. She could easily have been a 'diva' but instead she chose to take bumps, make noise, interfere and create a completely unique character. Those years with Savage, Dibiase and Michaels were very entertaining with so many great moments

    Two of the the greatest managers of all time.Love Jim and Sherri.She knew the flow of a match,how to accentuate a wrestler perfectly without taking away or adding too much and she was gorgeous.Would have loved to have seen a stable headed by both Jim and Sherri at some point.

      What year was this, almost didn't recognize her? I saw some things on the dark side of the ring that wasn't too flattering about the "fabulous mooha", and how she treated her girls. Hope Sherri wasn't subjected to those things. 😢

    What a shame, Sherri was very cute--at least she got into the WWE HOF before she passed away.
    999--what a hell of a run of bad luck for pro westling fans in the 1990's, Sherri, Bull Nakano, and Luna had substance abuse issues and hit the fast exit out of the WWE--that would have been a great division even if Madusa would not have then come on board to replace Sherri.
