Later, the Assassin (Hercules Hernandez) with manager Paul Jones compete against “Handsome” Jimmy Valiant in a “hair-vs.-mask” match in the “Boogie Jam ‘84” in Memphis back in 1984.

The summary by Dave Russell - Steve simply helping Ken Raper out of harm's way and then back into the ring - classic.

When the entire babyface locker room hit the ring, I hope somebody noticed Jerry Lawler's sweet-ass track suit he was sporting. I would kill for that outfit.

Hello and thanks much GShea for this classic Memphis wrestling moment. Truly awesome! Jimmy Hart was at his BEST when he was in Memphis, imo. What do you guys think? Can't say enough about Misters Russell and Brown man. They made. Well Lance Russell made CWA and Wrestling in Memphis classic. Dave probably didn't want to say or do to much because of his weatherman status in Southwest Tennessee, no? Lol!

Hilarious! Jimmy Hart's assassins beaten by two young, inexperienced wrestlers. With an assist from the team they didn't want to put up the World tag team titles against, The Fabulous Ones.

The Assassins later compete against the Fabulous Ones (Stan Lane & Steve Keirn) in a “hair-vs.-mask” match, the Assassins lost the match to the Fabs and they lost their masks. A week later, the Assassins later return as “The A-Team.”

I don't know; but that's Ken Raper's only title win, maybe his only win in wrestling and that's all that counts here.

@DavidFullam I believe so. I know there's a clip from Championship Wrestling from Georgia on KZitem somewhere of Jimmy Hart announcing that he had just signed the Assassin (this is circa 1985, just before him jumping ship to the WWF) and when Jody Hamilton cut a promo where he mentioned how "imitation was the sincerest form of flattery" which I couldn't help but think was a dig at Hart for managing Roger Smith's Assassins for such a long time. Was there truly bad blood there?

What is your dad's name? I might be able to help. My dad and my uncle were the assassins for the quite a few years in the mid south territories. The also trained a few of the guys they passed their hoods down to. I might be able to go through some of their old albums and portfolios and find something for you.

gristleizer Yes, it’s them. The Assassins later their masks to the Fabulous Ones in a mask-vs.-hair match. A week later, the Assassins returned as The A-Team. Roger Smith later turned face and became “Dirty Rhodes,” who resembles the “American Dream” Dusty Rhodes and teamed with “Harley Davidson” and became a popular tag team in the Memphis territory.
