Scott Braddock is a retired American professional wrestler who competed in North American regional promotions during the 1980s and early 1990s including the Global Wrestling Federation, the United States Wrestling Association and World Class Championship Wrestling. While in WCCW, he was known under the name "Sheik" Scott Braddock as a member of manager Skandor Akbar's "heel" stable Devastation Inc. and was an early ally of "Stunning" Steve Austin during his feud with former mentor Chris Adams.
He was also part of Robert Fuller's "Stud Stable" with "Rotten" Ron Starr and Cactus Jack, the group being involved in a memorable feud with Matt Borne and Jeff Jarrett, and later won the WCWA World Tag Team Championship with Cactus Jack in 1989. They were the last team to hold the titles when WCCW merged with the Continental Wrestling Association to form the USWA and, as a result, he and Cactus Jack were recognized as the first tag team champions in the new promotion.
Braddock began wrestling for promoter Fritz von Erich in World Class Championship Wrestling around 1988. In mid-1989, he became a member of manager Robert Fuller's "Stud Stable", which included "Rotten" Ron Starr and Cactus Jack, and became involved in a heated feud with Matt Borne and Jeff Jarrett. He and Cactus Jack, later stablemates in Skandor Akbar's Devastation Inc., began teaming together eventually winning the WCWA World Tag Team Championship from Borne and Jarrett in Dallas, Texas on August 4, 1989. This was the last WCCW event held at the Dallas Sportatorium. During that time, both WCCW and the CWA merged to form the United States Wrestling Alliance. Braddock and Cactus Jack were recognized by the USWA as the promotion's first tag team champions before losing the titles back to Borne and Jarrett a week later. Braddock won the titles once more, this time with Ron Starr, defeating them in Dallas on September 15. The title was held up in a September 22 rematch with he and Starr losing the titles to Borne and Jarrett the following week. The feud ended after Borne lost a "Loser-Leaves-Town" match in November. Jarrett briefly found an ally in a young Jeff Gaylord, but found more success as a singles wrestler. That same year, he wrestled Jimmy Jack Funk in one of the earliest shows aired on "USWA on ESPN" from the Dallas Sportatorium. Braddock and Starr would also face Jarrett and Funk in a tag team match.
