Rocky King (born William Boulware, Jr.) was a professional wrestler in Jim Crockett Promotions and World Championship Wrestling.

Career

Rocky King (born William Boulware, Jr.) started wrestling in 1985 in the National Wrestling Alliance's Jim Crockett Promotions as a jobber. He quickly improved and was often allowed a lot of offense during his jobber matches. He was a frequent opponent of the Four Horsemen. He was homeless before his wresling career started and got hired by Jim Crockett, Jr. after he would hang around the wrestlers trying to get a job.

In late 1990, after Crockett was purchased and renamed World Championship Wrestling, King got a gimmick change and became Little Richard Marley, manager of Michael Hayes and Jimmy Garvin, the Fabulous Freebirds. He helped them in their feud with the Southern Boys for a couple of months and was then back to wrestling as Rocky King.

He was also loosely associated with the Dudes With Attitudes in early 1990 during their feud with the Four Horsemen.

King became a WCW referee before retiring in 1998.

In July 1999, he started BWA Professional Wrestling to give fans a family-oriented product on the independent scene. He also formed Boulware Enterprises, Inc. to run his promotion, which stands for Boulware Wrestling Association. The BWA runs shows for churches, non-profit organizations and private organizations on the east coast.

He partners with Bill Heard III of Bill Heard Chevrolet in Atlanta, Georgia to operate Kids Nite Out, a program to keep kids off the streets.
