World Wrestling Federation Jesse

Early 1993 saw Jesse wrestling in Smoky Mountain Wrestling with occasionally making appearances for World Championship Wrestling as Brian Armstrong. Jesse, tagged as “the roadie” wrestled on several PPV’s and TV shows, but most his first WWF tenure was spent accompanying Jarrett.

There was a storyline planned that there would be a fight between Jeff Jarrett and Jesse, but before it actually could take place Jarrett and James suddenly left the WWF following the second In Your House pay-per-view on July 23, 1995. James then joined the United States Wrestling Association as Jesse James Armstrong, winning the heavyweight and tag titles before being forced to leave as a result of a loss at the hands of Jeff Jarrett. Jesse returned to the WWF in 1996.

Jesse formed a tag team with Billy Gunn, New Age Outlaws. A change in creative direction in the WWF in late 1997 led Billy Gunn, who had formerly been stuck in the unpopular gimmick of "Rockabilly," to bleach his hair blonde and assume the name "Badd Ass" Billy Gunn (also known as Mr. Ass), while James became "The Road Dogg" Jesse James. Jesse from 2000 to 2002 appeared to independent circuits.

Jesse’s most prominent appearance was with the short lived World Wrestling All-Stars promotion. Then in September 18, 2002 Jesse debuted for TNA wrestling as BG James. Jesse formed the stable known as 3Live Kru with Hispanic wrestler Konnan and the African American Wrestler K-Kwik. Jesse was represented as a white trash redneck. The 3Live Kru turned out to be a successful gimmick as Killings held the NWA World Heavyweight Championship for a second time and all three members enjoyed Tag Title reigns. Billy Gunn later joined the TNA as “The New Age Outlaw” in February 2005. Gunn, Known as Kip James was admitted to 3Live kru, changing the name of the stable to 4Live Kru. 4Live Kru broke up and BG and Kip regrouped and reformed their old tag teams as “the James gang” On the November of 2006 Kip and Jesse announced that they were going to quit TNA. On November 16, 2006 Kip and Jesse announced that they would be now known as Voodoo Kin Mafia. In early 2007, James said in an interview that if he had a chance to get out of his TNA deal and rejoin WWE he would Jump in a Heartbeat.
