Larry D Reveals Lessons Taught To Him By Tracy Smothers

Larry D was recently interviewed by Fightful, where he spoke about the impact Tracy Smothers had on him.

"Tracy Smothers is huge to me. I feel that Tracy Smothers taught me how to fire a crowd up, how to piss them off and how to cool them down, I guess you could say. I got to grow up watching Tracy Smothers in Georgetown. So from there I watched him on WCW, ECW and Smokey Mountain. Even better is that I got to share a locker room with him and share a ring with him and get to know him as a person. He would always pass advice on."

D continued.

"One thing that I love about Tracy Smothers is that he tried to watch every match on the card. I tried to always, always say, ‘Hey, don’t do this. There’s no need for that,’ or ‘Hey, you should do this next time.’ He was always helpful. So I try to do a little bit of that myself. Probably not as good as old Tracy, but I try my very best."
