He also teamed with Dusty Wolfe as the Hollywood Blondes in the Memphis area until arriving in Mexico's Empresa Mexicana de la Lucha Libre in May 1988. As the Fabuloso Blondy, he defeated Lizmark for the EMLL Light Heavyweight Championship on June 24, 1988^[1].

After spending several years in Mexican and South American promotions, winning the Guatemalan Heavyweight Championship, he eventually returned to his home state of Georgia wrestling as the masked wrestler The Assassin during the 1990s.
