Summary

Cowboy Johnny Mantell is the one who told Steve Austin he was being inducted into the Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame in Wichita Falls, Texas as part of the class of 2016! And while Steve was unable to attend the ceremony, he was able to get Cowboy Johnny Mantell on the line to talk about Cowboy's days in the business - working the Dallas territory for the Von Erichs, starting in Louisiana with Bill Watts, and learning from the great Bruiser Brody, and Stan Hansen! Cowboy also talks about his childhood days on the amateur wrestling scene, what he learned working under a mask in California, and the best advice he got from both Roddy Piper and Dory Funk.
