“Jim Crockett Jr. is in the hospital and not doing well. We will keep you posted. Please respect our families privacy during this time. But we welcome you to share your photos and memories here on this page. This page is managed by the Crockett Family.”
Crockett previously owned Jim Crockett Promotions, which was instrumental in the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA). The company was later bought by Ted Turner and renamed WCW in 1988. He remained as WCW President until 1991.
