– WWE Hall Of Famer Ric Flair took to social media this week to comment on the passing of Blackjack Mulligan (Robert Windham). “The Nature Boy” posted the following about the late wrestling legend:
“My friend since 1976. A man among men. We drove 3000 miles a week for 8 years. TOUGH does not begin to define Jack Mulligan. He was the baddest of them all. I was honored to be joined by his eldest son Barry in the four horseman. If anyone ever deserved to be in the WWE HOF it was Jack. My condolences to the Mulligan/Windham/Rotunda families. His memory lives on as his grandsons Bray and Bo are tearing up the WWE as only the Windhams can! You will be missed Blackjack.”
– New WWE Hall Of Famers The Fabulous Freebirds (Michael “P.S.” Hayes and Jimmy “Jam” Garvin) are the guests on Chris Jericho’s latest “Talk Is Jericho” podcast, which is available now at PodcastOne.com. The official description for the episode reads as follows:
“Michael “PS” Hayes and Jimmy Garvin are telling some freakin’ hilarious Fabulous Freebirds stories as they celebrate the Birds induction into the WWE Hall of Fame. They remember and pay tribute to their brothers, Terry “Bam Bam” Gordy and Buddy “Jack” Roberts. The revolutionary Freebirds were the first to use ring entrance music, and you’ll hear how that happened, and you’ll hear why their feud with the Von Erichs made Texas such a red hot territory. Michael PS Hayes shares some of Buddy’s crazier ribs and traveling moments, and Jimmy explains how Terry nearly blew up Dallas’ Love Field. And you’ll find out why neither the Birds or Jimmy Garvin ever had much of a run at WWE.”
