Big Boss Man Was My Childhood Hero | Dark Side of the Ring

The Big Boss Man was my favorite wrestler growing up. I never met him—but I once asked the Ultimate Warrior, moments after defeating The Undertaker in a Body Bag Match, to deliver a handwritten letter to Boss Man in Cobb County, Georgia. Following Dark Side of the Ring’s emotional episode about Ray Traylor, I’m revisiting my childhood obsession with the Big Boss Man: the homemade Halloween costume, the action figures I refused to sell, the WWF house-show loss that ruined my ride home and the extraordinary talent behind the badge. Ray Traylor never became world champion. He never needed to. Whether he was terrorizing Hulk Hogan, defending law and order or becoming one of the Attitude Era’s most depraved villains, Boss Man made everything professional wrestling asked of him feel believable. This is a personal tribute to my childhood hero—and to the family who sacrificed their time with Ray so wrestling fans like me could have the Big Boss Man.
