First off, I guess there's a need for a disclaimer here, in case, by some small chance, Mr. Horowitz himself reads this blog... I would advise any new readers of The JOB blog to please read our very first post The Purpose of JOB blog. I say this because Barry has a strong distain for the term "jobber", and I can certainly understand where he's coming from. I personally prefer the term "enhancement talent", but in a world of "140 characters or less" sometimes "jobber" is just easier. So, Barry, if you're out there, you being featured on this blog is meant as a tribute to you and your career, not to disrespect you. I hope it's taken as such.So, enough of the "CMOA" stuff... we will be fully profiling Barry Horowitz
on The JOB blog in the very near future; but for now, where is "Mr. Technical"? You may remember, after Barry's WWF contract expired in 1997, he joined WCW in 1998. He wrestled mostly on WCW Saturday Night before leaving WCW in 2000 and returning to the independent circuit. As of June 2005, he was working as a nutritionist in Florida while occasionally wrestling for local independent promotions. On October 22, 2008, WWE.com sent out an update stating Barry Horowitz was featured on their "Where are they now?" section of WWE.com. Pretty classy, I'd say. Barry is obviously a family man and enjoys his time away from the "hustle and bustle" of the road. It's good to hear he's in the nutrition field, keeping himself, and encouraging others to, stay healthy. He's helping others. Isn't that what Barry Horowitz has done his entire career? So, Mr. Horowitz, or "Mr. Technical" if you prefer, you will always be "The Winner" in our book, and yes, WE REMEMBER YOU!
