Description
Missy Hyatt celebrates her upcoming Dark Side of the Ring Season 7 episode, and sets the record straight about one of wrestling's most groundbreaking careers! She shares her memories of breaking into World Class Championship Wrestling alongside Hollywood John Tatum, working for Fritz Von Erich, the incredible popularity of the Von Erich family, and why Dallas was unlike anywhere else in wrestling during the territory days. Missy also looks back on marrying Eddie Gilbert, almost becoming Randy Savage's manager in WWF, why the infamous “Missy's Manor” was doomed from the start, and how her run in WCW transformed her into one of wrestling's biggest personalities thanks to “Missy Does The Mail” with Jim Ross. She has candid stories about Paul Heyman, Eric Bischoff, Jason Hervey, the sexual harassment and unequal treatment she experienced behind the scenes, her lawsuit against WCW, returning to ECW, why she ultimately walked away, and what it means to see her remarkable story finally told on Dark Side of the Ring.
Dark Side of the Ring Season 7 is streaming now on VICE TV.
