86. Jerry Jarrett
The father of Jeff Jarrett had a lot more impact in the world of wrestling than casual fans realize. Jerry Jarrett was a top star in the Memphis territory holding multiple championships in the Volunteer State, but he slowly worked his way into to becoming a promoter, and by the decade’s end, ran one of the tightest organizations. Jerry “The King” Lawler appears to represent Memphis in terms of the WWE Hall of Fame, but an induction for Jarrett seals its importance.
