Memphis in Minutes: The Two Lives of Terry Simms

In this episode of Memphis in Minutes, Gene Jackson takes us on a fast-paced journey through the unique career of Terry Simms — known to some as flamboyant heel “Terrence Garvin, The Beauty” and later as gritty babyface Terry Simms in the Global Wrestling Federation.

We cover his early days teaming with Mark “The Beast” Guleen as Beauty & the Beast, his clashes with Adrian Street and Bill Dundee, and his reinvention in Dallas where he became one of Eddie Gilbert’s top babyfaces. From Broadway matches in the sweltering Sportatorium to his underrated role in the GWF on ESPN, Sims proved himself as one of wrestling’s most versatile performers.

Gene also reflects on Terry’s later years, his own World Domination podcast, his personal stories about Kerry Von Erich and Eddie Gilbert, and his passing in 2018 at just 55 years old.

This is the story of a man who wasn’t a household name, but left a lasting mark wherever he wrestled — Terry Simms.
