JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Anyone who watched pro wrestling before the year 2000 should not miss this episode! It is packed.
First we start off with former WWE star Ahmed Johnson (real name Tony Norris).
In this interview he gets in-depth on his time in WWE and being part of the Nation of Domination under Ron Simmons aka Farooq . Then he discusses The Rock’s overlap with him when Dwayne Johnson was brand new to WWE.
After that we explore his jump to WCW as part of Harlem Heat 2000 alongside Stevie Ray.
Then after that we’re joined by hardcore wrestling legend Abdullah The Butcher.
Host Scott Johnson talks to him a lot about the “Chamber of Horrors” match where he was put in an electric chair and “electrocuted” to end a match.

But Scott pays the price for the tone of his questioning in this interview when he’s attacked by one of Abdullah’s closest friends... WWE Hall of Famer Mick Foley !
