GEORGE SCOTT

 

Long-time referee Tommy Young introduced George Scott, who was largely responsible for putting the territory on the fast track in the 1970s with his booking expertise; Scott did the same for the inaugural WrestleManias.

To Young, though, Scott was the man who gave him a break when he was out of work after the demise of the International Wrestling Association, a rival to Jim Crockett Promotions. "I run the show here. I'm going to use you," Young recalled his friend saying.

"I think it was probably one of the greatest times in my life, when I did the promotion, the booking, and things like that," Scott added.
