My Take
Road Dogg, Brian James, is pure 1990s WWF to me, the era I grew up loving. From The Roadie to the swaggering Road Dogg of D-Generation X, he had that rare gift of seizing a crowd the second the microphone hit his hand; his entrance patter alone could light up an arena. What I respect even more is the second act, slipping behind the curtain as a writer to shape the product he once headlined. That's a man who understands wrestling from both sides of the ropes. The WWE Hall of Fame induction was earned. Few performers turned sheer charisma into longevity quite like him.
