Black Bart Shoot Interview

When you think of Texas bad asses, there is only one true cowboy and his by far one of the toughest man who has ever stepped inside the squared circle. That man? Black Bart. This is one shoot where you do not need to necessarily be a fan of Bart to enjoy all the wild, and revealing stories that pack this DVD. Every fan of NWA and Fritz Von Erich’s World Class are going to love Bart’s pull-no-punches approach to story telling and you’ll be picking your jaw up off the floor throughout. Bart knocked us all dead in the RF VIDEO studios and all of us agree it is one of the most entertaining shoots in years. We guarantee this one is a keeper and it starts out on a high note with Bart talking about how he broke into the business and paid his dues the old school way. Just wait until you hear the story about Bart working a young Brutus Beefcake and why Beefcake was legit crying backstage after the match. And then there is the story of Bart, Sgt. Slaughter, and Don Kernodle in a limo being chased on the highway by rednecks. Just incredible stuff and all of were shocked and how great Bart could weave a story. This is exactly what shoot interviews were intended to be, sometimes hilarious, sometimes shocking, but always entertaining. Bart’s relationship with Dusty Rhodes, his brutal matches against Black Jack Mulligan, why Eddie Graham committed suicide, Kevin Sullivan living his gimmick, and what Vince McMahon did to him after refusing a WWF job offer are just a sample of the fantastic stories you will hear on this DVD. If you like Von Erich stories, and what wrestling fan doesn’t, than this is one interview you will want to watch as Bart has nothing to lose and talks about all the infamous drug stories. This is possibly the first interview ever that goes into great detail on the subject of David Von Erich’s OD in Japan as Bart was with David on that infamous tour. We cover anything and everything on this incredible shoot, ranging from Crockett and the NWA to working with the Necro Butcher (and you won’t believe what Bart says on that particular subject). Tons of major scoops are revealed and when challenge any nay-sayer to sample the first ten minutes of this interview and not get hooked. It’s THAT GOOD!
