Eric Watts and Bull Buchanan were backstage at the TNA PPV last night. Watts, who was referred by Raven, taped a promo but it did not air.

I haven't heard much about Watts since his WCW days. Anyone know what he has been up to?

He was briefly in ECW as part of Corino's "Old School Movement", but I hadn't heard anything on him since.

So does this mean we are going to get the "My daddy wasn't there for me when I was growing up" promo, version 5?

When will Watts realize that he's not his daddy and he can't make a living in the wrestling business.

I actually like the look Watts had when he came to WCW as a jobber in '98/'99. Unfortunately, WCW only put him out there as a job guy and they never let him try and progress himself. DDP and Nash were pushing for him to get a shot before Russo took over, infact.

 

Fuck it, the only thing I liked about Watts were those awesome pants he wore. Anyone know where I can get some?

A stable of Eric Watts, David Flair and Brian Lawler could actually be fun if booked correctly...until the matches...

I was searching on EBay for Watts' name and look what I found:

 

Former Rep. Robin Williams (R-Augusta) helped several people get jobs with the parole board, including professional wrestler Erik Watts.

 

At Williams' request, the parole board gave Watts a contract worth up to $48,000 a year to go into schools and preach against drugs and violence, said Chuck Topetzes, director of the parole division. When the board said it didn't have enough money to hire him, the Legislature added it to the board's budget.

 

"The kids liked him," Topetzes said. "I think Robin genuinely felt he was a great public speaker and would make great presentations." Watts' contract expired last year.

 

Williams also helped get a parole job for friend Jeri Davis, who earns $44,569 a year to perform work similar to Watts' and who also does "fantastic presentations," Topetzes said. "Jeri does a great job, especially when she does her presentations to kids on the danger of drugs."

 

 

Ohh my God! I'm so angry I couldn't get Erik Watts to preach to me about drugs and violence.

 

Back to searching EBay for those awesome pants.

Actually, Nash wasn't pushing for Erik get anything in WCW, as he was against booking him in the first place.

 

Erik did some shots for Dusty's TCW group in 2001.

Dude...I wonder if one of the kids Watts preached anti-drug messages to was a smark, and said something along the lines of "wait, so you don't do drugs? Explain the messed-up dropkick, then."

Maybe they will replace the Harriseses with Bull and fire the Harriseses as one guy is cheaper than two.

 

And unlike the Harriseses Bull isn't total shit in the ring.
