Tully has been a true to life heel from the beginning, when measuring a heel, you use Tully Blanchard as the standard

Tully was always great on the mic! Always was great in the squared circle.

his interview skills are a llittle raw here, but he would get lightyears better by the time he arrived on TBS. One of my top ten favorites.

Sweet to see Tully get interviewed by his own dad 😁. That title looks more like a belt than a championship.

Soft spoken yet still arrogant Tully Blanchard sounds very much like Jerry Lawler here with the cadences and inflection. When Blanchard used to scream on Promos on TBS in a futile effort to drown out crowds booing him he sounded very much like another Memphis great named Austin Idol.B.W.

This is around 1980 or '81 I think? He said "cry to the NWA" so Southwest had to still be an NWA member at this time? In the early 80's they were an AWA member. So it could be as early as 1978 or 79. Although Southwest had some Crossovers with Georgia Championship in the early 80's, one of the NWA's biggest members.

Joe Blanchard started Southwest in 1978. Prior to that, he was a local promoter who obtained most of his talent from Fritz Von Erich but taped his own TV show, which was called All-Star Wrestling. Some footage from that program has surfaced, so this could be from those days.

Couple that up with Arn Anderson's Spine-Buster in later years, when these two were not only members of the Four Horsemen, but when they were in the Then-WWF, working as the Brain-Busters, under the Managerial guidance of one Bobby "The Brain" Heenan...and there ya go! This is the stuff that Legends are made of!!!

Being a Horsemen made it a HOF career for Tully Blanchard. Your not the top heel in NWA/JCP/Mid-Atlantic feuding with Wahoo McDaniels, Ricky Steamboat, Dusty Rhodes, and Magnum T.A., to name a few just because or by accident. Tully was the main man for all of '84 and '85 before the Horsemen formed. Call it right place at the right time, Tully took care of the rest.

I love old school wrestling, but I never liked Tully Blanchard. Average worker, no physique, all he could do was talk. Arn carried him in tag team matches.
