The Honky Tonk Man
This is the commencement of the unofficial website for the Honky Tonk Man.
I will make a prediction now that before long, I will be hearing from Honky's lawyers asking for this tribute to come down, as he comes across as most bitter towards many things, including any articles that don't kiss his ass.
Honky is infamous now in ripping on wrestlers and people in wresting that he doesn't like. If you don't believe me, as your fellow wrestler, or check out his official website at:
TheHonkyTonkMan.com (PS: the website is back on the air as of July 2002 approx. It is a "user pays" website. A very small amount of information is given away for free).

CORRECTION ABOUT THE HONKY TONK MAN SMACKDOWN! INVITATION
After the 1wrestling.com
report about Honky Tonk Man being approached to appear on Smackdown! next week
which was mentioned elsewhere,, the HTM sent word saying that the report "is
not true". In a follow up e-mail he said that on the 6th of this month
at around 3PM AZ time, he received the call from WWE and was asked to do a cameo
appearance in Minneapolis this Tuesday. He said they made it clear it was a
one shot deal and he never asked for a long term employment. He added that he
gracefully declined the offer due to other commitments with his son who is a
golfer in the state of Arizona.
Overview
We all know that HTM liked to refer to refer to himself as the greatest of all time (not even Intercontinental Champion in my opinion). Check out the History of the WWF I/C Championship.
HTM was never the greatest worker or technical wrestlers, but he could take good bumps and he could talk, and HTM drew money, and that is why Honky Tonk Man has some claim over the title, The Greatest Intercontinental Champion of all time.
Be sure to check this site often for updates (I can hardly keep up-to-date with the hart mail for Honky Tonk Man)
