South
Carolina
Wrestling Hall
of Fame
Inaugural
Class - Rufus R.
Jones, Lillian
"Fabulous
Moohlah"
Ellison, and
Mike Mooneyham
From Mike Mooneyham's column in the 4/17/2011 Charleston Post & Courier:It’s not often when independent wrestling promotions band together for a common cause. In fact, it may have marked a  first last weekend in Orangeburg, when the state’s four biggest groups came together for the induction of the inaugural class of the S.C. Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame.
Joining forces to work together for a common goal of honoring the past is an admirable endeavor, and these groups are to be commended for their efforts.
CWA of Orangeburg, APW of Spartanburg, NCW of Greenville and OSCW of Charleston combined to put on a super event, with David Garrick, a longtime fixture on the South Carolina independent wrestling scene, doing a stellar job in organizing the Hall of Fame ceremony. Champions from all the promotions took part in the event, and the quality of wrestling — and production values — was top-notch.
These hard-working souls put on a great show and deserve your support, so next time they’re in your town, do yourself a favor and catch the action.
Mooneyham joins three pro wrestling greats in the introductory South Carolina class: WWE Hall of Famers Mae Young and Lillian “The Fabulous Moolah” Ellison, and Rufus. R. “Freight Train” Jones. The latter two were inducted posthumously.
