The Assassin's face turn?
Aug 13th, 2008, 3:08pm  
Hello all:
 
Does anyone here know if The Assassin #1 ever turned babyface in JCP? I was told that at one point shortly after Boogie Man Jam '84, that The Assassins were on TV, and Assassin #2 willingly unmasked as a result of his loss to Valiant which led to the team breaking up, but I just don't remember that. Can anyone give me some info on this (dates, youtube links, screen caps, etc.), assuming it actually happened?
 
Thanks in advance,
MaskedSuperstarFan

I feel like a fool for replying to myself, but I found an picture of an ad for a card at the Greensboro Coliseum for 1/6/85 and it lists a 6 man tag with Charlie Brown, Assassin #1, and Buzz Tyler vs Superstar Graham, Ron Bass, & JJ Dillon, so there was apparantly a face turn, but I would still like to know the circumstances behind it if anyone has that info.
 
Thanks to all again,
MSF

I don't remember details but I believe Paul Jones, in his managerial role, was a key player in Assassin 1's face turn. I think it was your typical old school turn where Jones was berating the Assassin for losing a match or something to that effect. It seems like the same thing happened when Jones was managing Dory Funk Jr. But, with all the Mid Atlantic historians on here, I am sure someone will provide you better details on timeline and the exact circumstances.
