This is from obsessed with wrestling ....
1993: Rufus R. Jones dies at the age of 60..
S D Jones wasn't the son of Rufus, he was billed as his cousin. Conrad Efraim was his name and he was from Antigua, West Indies

This is from Obsessed with Wrestling web site..............S.D. Jones once wrestled as "Roosevelt Jones" in the Mid-Atlantic, teaming with his "cousin" Rufus R. Jones against the Andersons..

I don't remember this at all. Doesn't mean it isn't true, but I never remember SD Jones being billed as a cousin of Rufus R. Jones. Perhaps this was in another territory? Indeed, Burrhead Jones was billed as Rufus Jones' cousin in the Mid-Atlantic area and did several angles with Rufus. Just for fun, a photo here of Rufus and Burrhead confronting Blackjack Mulligan and Ric Flair.

SD Jones is part iof the newest game supplement of Legends of Wrestling by Filsinger Games. It's a pretty fun card and dice game for anyone who likes a more traditional wrestling game instead of a computer game

I used to have an old Wrestling Game that you had dice and cards with. I got it our of a PWI ad back in the mid 80's. Pretty fun as a kid, but don't think I would have as much fun with it as an adult. I would rather plug in the ole PS2 and create my own PAY PER VIEW with my favorite stars, Grab a few beers and a Pizza and watch a better show than Vince puts on. Oh Wait, That IS what I do every week. SORRY - THINKING OUT LOUD AGAIN ~ LOL

Yeah thats the one - You created your own characters and everything. But you gotta admit, it was an OK game, but nothing beat going out in my Grnadma's front yard and wrestling for hour on end. If Wal Mart was around 25 years ago with those 10 x 10 Dog Fenses, We would have had steel cage matches too. WHERE HAVE ALL THE GOOD TIMES GONE?

Black Jack tried to get the powers that be to let Rufus win the Heavy Weight title from him. They wouldn't allow it though. They were very good friends.
