Summary

Ricky Morton, one half of the legendary Rock ‘n’ Roll Express tag team, returns to the show with his son, Kerry Morton, the current NWA World Junior Heavyweight Champion. The father-son duo have been tagging on the indie scene, and talk about what that’s been like, and how they enjoy working with Billy Corgan and NWA. Ricky also shares some stories from his days in the ring with Robert Gibson, working with Dusty Rhodes and Jim Crockett, and their big feuds with the Midnight Express and Jim Cornette. Ricky details the time he won the World title from Ric Flair, and the circumstances that led to him surrendering the belt right after he won it! He talks about working for NWA in the ‘80s, why he and Robert jumped to Smokey Mountain Wrestling in the early 90s, and what motivates him to keep getting in the ring today.
