Portland Wrestlecast: Raven in Portland Wrestling, pt. 2

It’s part two of our conversation with Raven — who was Scotty the Body in 1989 and 1990 in the Portland territory.

During this interview, Jim Valley talks with the former “Scotty the Body” about his feud with referee Sandy Barr that actually popped the territory, his relationship with promoter Don Owen that eventually led to his departure, how booker Len “The Grappler” Denton helped a young Raven out (but Scotty the Body didn’t realize it at the time), what it was like working different towns in the territory, where he partied, who he partied with, and what he learned during his formative years.

Be sure to check out Raven’s podcast “The Raven Effect.”

Also this week, a preview of next week’s episode with Toni Rae Borne, Buddy Rose’s former wife and daughter of Tough Tony Borne and sister of Matt Borne, aka Doink the Clown.
