WWE officially announced on Friday night that The Honky Tonk Man, a Hall of Fame wrestling legend, has signed on once again with the company under a multi-year legends agreement.
A three-time signee, The Honky Tonk Man is extending a 15-year long nostalgia-driven deal with WWE.
Famous for electrifying audiences with unforgettable performances, The Honky Tonk Man – with the help of his ever-present guitar and partner Jimmy Hart – ensured his victories by bending the rules, much to the crowd’s delight. This clever tactic led to an impressive 454-day stint as the Intercontinental Champion, one of the longest in the organization’s history. His reign continues to be remembered as a show of guile and charm that forever altered the landscape of wrestling.
The Honky Tonk Man was being recognized as a pioneer even in 2019 when he was admitted into the WWE Hall of Fame. Many fans and experts argue he was one of the originals who intertwined athleticism and theatrical showmanship, thus paving the way for future generations in this field.
Honky Tonk Man will be making an appearance at Wrestlecon in Las Vegas on WrestleMania weekend from April 16th to 20th, where he’ll be autographing and engaging with fans. Early bird tickets can be bought at www.officialHTM.com, allowing fans to save on ticket prices.
In a statement, Honky Tonk Man spoke about his pride in remaining affiliated with WWE: “This Legends Deal is a reflection of my time and impact in WWE during the era it was becoming a global phenomenon. The relationship with WWE has been mutually beneficial and I am honored by their continued commitment to ensure the Honky Tonk Man character and intellectual property will live on forever.”
With this renewed Legends Deal, fans can look forward to seeing more of The Honky Tonk Man across various WWE projects, merchandise, and events that keep his legacy alive.
