On this week's edition of Grilling JR, Jim Ross and Conrad Thompson pay tribute to one of the most influential and beloved figures in professional wrestling history as they celebrate the legendary career of the original Texas Outlaw, Terry Funk, who would have turned 82 this week. From his roots in the iconic Funk wrestling family to his reign as NWA World Heavyweight Champion, JR shares firsthand stories and memories of a man whose passion for the business knew no bounds. The guys explore Terry's remarkable ability to reinvent himself across multiple decades, his unforgettable rivalries, and the fearless style that made him a legend everywhere from Amarillo and Japan to ECW and WWE. JR reflects on Terry's unmatched authenticity, his willingness to sacrifice his body for the fans, and why so many wrestlers from Hall of Famers to today's biggest stars consider Funk one of the greatest to ever lace up a pair of boots. You'll hear incredible behind-the-scenes stories, personal memories, and JR's perspective on what made Terry one of the most respected performers the industry has ever known.
