Jim Crockett Sr. is one of the main reasons of the glory of that times, one of the main reasons for all the history, culture, legendary moments in of the best eras in ProWrestling! Thank you Sir!"

[10.0] "This man was the pioneer of one of the most famous and legendary territories during the "Territory Days" of pro wrestling: NWA Mid-Atlantic. Which created so many wrestling superstars who are legendary today along with so many classic matches, feuds, angles, and moments. He is a Perfect 10 in my book as a Promoter."

[10.0] "Jim Crockett Sr. built an impressive empire in the Southeast, Big Jim Crockett was a large man who ingratiated himself to his talents and his fellow promoters, thus becoming an influential member of the National Wrestling Alliance, Although the “Golden Age of Pro-Wrestling” was coming to close, pro-wrestling in the Mid-Atlantic region was entering a golden era as the promotion built itself as a legendary tag team territory. established stars like George Becker and Mike Clancy as well as rising stars like Johnny Weaver and the Flying Scotts squared off with heels like Bronko Lubich & Aldo Bogni, Rip Hawk & Swede Hanson and the Andersons. Then after a long time. then It was his vision to transition the territory from featuring tag wrestling to singles stars. Legendary stars like Johnny Valentine, Wahoo McDaniel and the Super Destroyer (Don Jardine) Ric Flair Paul Jones became keys in this successful transition."
