West Texas Rednecks

Master P arrived with the No Limit Soldiers, a group established with wrestlers such as Conan and Rey Mysterio.

Their primary opponents became the West Texas Rednecks, a group led by Curt Heading.

The storyline was designed hip-hop versus country music.

The No Limit Soldiers were the heroes.

The West Texas Rednecks were supposedly the villains.

But remember...

Wrestling audiences didn't necessarily react the way WCW expected it to.

They do change up the West Texas match.

They change up the West Texas Rednecks.

They have Kurt Hedding and Barry Windham against Conan and Brad Armstrong to keep the feud going.

I guess that's the better.

I just don't think, I just think Russo doesn't go that way and he just makes him a joke instead because he thinks that works.

I agree and for every Jim Duggan joining Team Canada I've got a story about that too but for every Jim Duggan joining Team Canada which just did not work we get Kurt Hennig Bobby Duncombe Jr. and the Wyndham brothers being the West Texas Rednecks.

I love that.

Which was not supposed to get over.

I'm tired of meta stuff.

I think between Vincent and Shane, he was also Curly Bill with the West Texas Rednecks at some point.

But we didn't ever see that.

Was that a Bill Dundee

Hey, do you guys, and this is kind of a little sidebar here, but you're talking about West Texas, and I'm going to tie it back in with Kurt.

You remember the WCW gimmick, the West Texas Rednecks?

Yes.

I'm now with the Stan Hansens and the Tully Blanchards and all of the famous names that are from West Texas.

Do you feel like that was kind of a rib on everybody there by calling them the West Texas Rednecks? Instead of anywhere else, because it kind of seems like that's where we see a lot of these these big time names.

And I kind of get the sense that Kurt would have been like, yeah, let's have some fun with this.

Oh, if anybody's going to have fun with it, it would have been Kurt.

[laughs].

Um, and then you had, like, the West Texas Rednecks.

You had The Jersey Triad.

You had Raven's Flock.
