Cueball Carmichael
Chris Jackson (born June 10, 1960) is an American professional wrestler, trainer and promoter, known by his ringname Cueball Carmichael, who competes in the Mid-Atlantic and East Coast independent circuit. He has wrestled and won titles in the Allied Powers Wrestling Federation, King Kong Bundy's Devastation Wrestling Federation, Maryland Championship Wrestling, Mid-Eastern Wrestling Federation, the National Wrestling Alliance, Phoenix Championship Wrestling, Southern Championship Wrestling and Steel City Wrestling.
He formed successful tag teams with several independent wrestlers during the 1990s, including The Darkside Rebel, Mad Dog O'Malley, Jimmy Cicero and sometimes rival Johnny Gunn. As one-half of The Northern Exposure with C. W. Anderson, he won the SCW Tag Team Championship in 1997. While part of the MCW heel stable Total Quality Management, he and stablemate Dino Devine won the MCW Tag Team Championship in 2000.
Jackson was also the booker and part owner of the now defunct Virginia-based Independent Professional Wrestling Alliance. While with the IPWA, he was involved in training numerous wrestlers for the promotion. With several other wrestlers, including Jimmy Z and Shorty Smalls, he operated the Keep Your Dreams Alive (KYDA) facility. Among his former students are Joey Mercury, Christian York, Jacey North, Otto Schwanz and "American" Mike Brown.
Trained by Peter Maivia and later Lou Thez, he made his debut on March 5, 1983. As Cueball Carmichael, he was billed as the "hometown hero" of Alexandria, Virginia though he largely wrestled as an unpopular "rulebreaker" for much of his career. He also worked part-time as a stockbroker and insurance broker. After spending over ten years on the Mid-Atlantic and East Coast independent circuit, Jackson began running wrestling shows for the Independent Professional Wrestling Alliance with Kevin Carson. As well as being a part owner and booker, he was also an active wrestler for the promotion. On October 9, 1995, he became its first heavyweight champion at their debut show in Manassas, Virginia.
On March 9, 1996, shortly after a successful title defense against The Iron Sheik at Fairfax County, Virginia's Secret's Restaurant and Sports Arena, Jackson was attacked by Johnny Gunn who hit him across the back with a steel chair. A month later, he lost the title to Gunn after being pinned in a controversial 32 minute match. Jackson later claimed that Gunn had rendered him unconscious with an ether-soaked rag. Sometime during the match however, 22-year-old fan Danelle Evans stole the heavyweight title but it was later recovered by local police.
Around this time, Jackson began wrestling for Mid-Eastern Wrestling Federation in Baltimore facing El Loco Uno on March 17 and Johnny Desire on April 14. He also continued feuding with Gunn over the title throughout the year, including meeting him in a best-of-three "Texas Death Match" on June 6, and finally regained the title on July 29. Jackson defended the title almost four months, including an outdoor show in Buxton during Hurricane Edouard, before eventually vacating the title due to injury on November 22, 1996. He also had a brief feud with Axl Rotten around this time.
The following month, Jackson took part in a major independent show in Woodbridge, Virginia on December 8, 1996, teaming with Sean Powers and Darkside (Glen Osbourne and Rockin' Rebel) in an 8-man tag team match Axl Rotten, Chris Stephenson and The Headbangers (Mosh & Thrasher). The event, "The Night the Business Was Exposed", ended with Stevie Richards and The Blue Meanie exposing kayfabe. Many ECW wrestlers who participated in the show were allegedly not paid for their appearance by the booker.
While in IPWA, Jackson was involved in training several wrestlers for the promotion. He and others, including Jimmy Z and Shorty Smalls, eventually opened the Keep Your Dreams Alive (KYDA) facility in Woodbridge. Among his future students were Joey Matthews, Christian York, Jacey North and "American" Mike Brown. During the next year, Jackson would have a series of matches against Young.
