Quote:
"My friend, father-figure and mentor, Jackie Fargo died this morning. He was the best!," wrote WWE announcer Jerry Lawler, who worked with Fargo in the 1970s. "Without the Fabulous Jackie Fargo, there would never have been a King Jerry Lawler. RIP Jackie."

"RIP Jackie Fargo... Huge influence on my career... Often imitated, but never duplicated," wrote TNA co-founder Jeff Jarrett, who grew up in the Memphis/Tennessee territory.
