Students get their feet wet in shows staged by Anderson and Hernandez, and three ex-students now have development contracts in the big time. But it's a long shot for all of them, says Jim Ross, host of the TV show Monday Night Raw and talent boss for the WWF, where trash talking is an essential skill. "The biggest enemy some of them have is the English language."

Jones has no such problem, so Ross was asked the chances for an aging dreamer who sometimes doubles over in the ring with a nicotine cough but has more personality than most of the witless drones you see on TV. "The chances for a guy like that are slim and none," Ross says, "and Slim's about to leave town."

Listen here, motor mouth: When K.C. had his first teeth knocked out, he went to his truck, grabbed a pair of pliers and yanked up one of the roots. Ross snorted: "Tell him to send me a video."

You'll get the video, pencil neck. And you can tell those leotarded WWF sissies that the Wild Man from the Desert Sand is coming after them.
