He would actually sell the wrestler by talking about their background, college athletics etc... Talked up Bob Roop, Mike Graham, the Funks and Briscos like they could be in the olympics tomorrow. He was the best, I remember one Madison Square Garden show where they did a combined card and Vince and Gordon shared the commentary, I can't recall the matches though  Best announcer of all time, Bill Mercer a close second.

I agree. The territories fed off of each other. When an angle had it's blowoff or a guy lost his heat, he could just go to a different territory. Not to mention it gave guys time to develop their OWN persona instead of having some dipshit in the WWE "talent" dept do it for them.....just a much better system that produced much more quality.
You hit the nail on the head. When a guy lost his steam he could move on and reinvent himself some other place, as heel, or face.

Kerry never quite caught on in the Fed, but was an NWA h/w champion. It sounded like he had some real "problems"/"issues," which isn't surprising considering his eventual suicide.
The whole family was F'd up, thanks to Fritz.
I agree Boss Man was underrated
