Promoter Ken Taylor announced September 9th, that legendary Sportatorium manager Baboose has signed Cody Jones and will bring him to Irving, Texas, to make his NWA National debut October 13, at NWA Southwest's "Spectacular Return to the Metroplex" Event.
Cody is the 20-year-old son of NWA wrestling legend Tom Jones. Cody made his professional debut on February 19, 2005, and has honed his wrestling skills with impressive victories in the Texas Panhandle and West Texas ever since.
"Cody has established himself as one of the top juniors in the State and he's ready for NWA level competition....we're happy to bring him into the NWA," said Taylor.
Baboose said Cody is the geniune article and will dominate the junior scene in Texas under his management and guidance. "This kid is good and fearless.......a chip off the ol' block, and I will make him an even bigger star than his father and he was one of the big names of his day."
Tom Jones held many NWA wrestling titles in the 60's and 70's. He won a lot of NWA State Tag Team titles with Billy Red Lyons. He was the first black man to ever wrestle a white man in the south!
