CHARGES





“HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT ABOUT BEING A MANAGER?”
- Frankie Cain, booker



A young Bill Moody, who had in-ring aspirations but not the in-ring aptitude, was humbled and a little upset by these words. But with one door closing, another one flew wide open as a brand new world was open to him. He had the drive, the smarts, and – most importantly – the wit to become one of the most famous professional wrestling managers in the history of the great sport.


To the best of my memory, the following is the most complete chart that I can compile. I know that I have missed two or three. There is no doubt that I have been very blessed with one of the most exciting careers that I could have ever dreamed of. Many talents that I managed went on to become legends in our industry. I believe that each name will speak for itself, and remember that they are not in any particular order.


NOTE: This does not include many of the one-time managerial positions he assumed during his later career on the independent scene. These are his more regular charges.
