"Ronald Heard (December 21, 1948 – March 7, 2017) was an American professional wrestler, best known under the name "The Outlaw" Ron Bass. His gimmick was a Texan cowboy who entered World Wrestling Federation (WWF) rings to the sound of a bullwhip. Professional wrestling career =National Wrestling Alliance (1971–1987)= Heard started wrestling as Ron Bass in 1971 in the Gulf Coast territory. Throughout the 1970s, he performed primarily in National Wrestling Alliance territories. He was known as "Cowboy" Ron Bass, Sam Oliver Bass, and "Outlaw" Ron Bass, depending on which territory he was working at the time. In the early 1980s, he wrestled in Championship Wrestling from Florida and Jim Crockett Promotions, frequently teaming with Black Bart as The Long Riders in both promotions. He also teamed and feuded with Barry Windham in Florida. As a face he would feud with Angelo Mosca and Kendo Nagasaki. Bass would later turn heel after turning on Dusty Rhodes during a match where Bass was a special referee in a match against Harley Race, costing Rhodes the NWA title. Bass' feud with Barry Windham (over a saddle given to Bass by Dusty Rhodes) led to Windham losing a "loser-leaves-town" match to Bass and coming back to wrestle as the masked "Dirty Yellow Dog. " =World Wrestling Federation (1987–1989)= In 1987, Bass (using the "Outlaw" name) went to the World Wrestling Federation (WWF), where he voiced challenges to the likes of WWF champion Hulk Hogan and Brutus Beefcake. Bass quickly settled into a role in the midcard position, wrestling against Hillbilly Jim, Lanny Poffo and Sam Houston. Later on he was part of the five-man team captained by The Honky Tonk Man at the inaugural Survivor Series pay-per-view on Thanksgiving Day 1987. He also participated in the very first Royal Rumble and the 20-man battle royal at WrestleMania IV. He was eliminated at the latter event by the Junkyard Dog; a feud between the two began in the months after WrestleMania after Bass choked and dragged the Dog with his bullwhip, "Miss Betsy," in a sneak attack on Wrestling Challenge. He also joined Gorilla Monsoon at the broadcast table one week on Wrestling Challenge to cover for Bobby "The Brain" Heenan, who was recovering from his storyline injury from Ken Patera. At the 1988 King of the Ring tournament, Bass qualified for the final after beating a young Shawn Michaels but was paid by Ted DiBiase to fake an injury.Ted DiBiase: The Million Dollar Man, p.162, Ted DiBiase with Tom Caiazzo, Pocket Books, New York, NY, 2008, Bass began a feud with Beefcake in August 1988, gouging Beefcake's head open with his spurs ("Bret" and "Bart") on an episode of Superstars of Wrestling; the attack caused Beefcake to miss his scheduled Intercontinental championship match against the Honky Tonk Man at the first SummerSlam event on August 29. Bass and Honky co-captained a five-man contingent against a team captained by Beefcake and the Ultimate Warrior at the second Survivor Series in November. Bass and teammate Greg Valentine were eliminated by Warrior in succession in the final minute of the match. On the January 7, 1989 Saturday Night's Main Event XIX, Bass lost to Beefcake via sleeperhold in a hair vs. hair match. He competed in the 1989 Royal Rumble (sans hair), Bass' feud with Beefcake was scrapped, and he was used mainly as a preliminary wrestler and left the WWF shortly thereafter. =Retirement= Bass wrestled in the independents before retiring in 1991 due to the injuries sustained over his career. In 2005, he made an appearance at WrestleReunion on January 29 and teamed with Larry Zbyszko to defeat Barry Windham and Mike Rotunda. Bass and Brian Blair both starred in the film Silent Times directed by Geoff Blanchette and Christopher Annino, which was released in 2018. Bass plays a 1920s professional football coach named Coach Joseph Arcarese. Personal life and death After retiring, Heard returned to Tampa, Florida, where he golfed, became religious, and earned his bachelor's degree from Arkansas State University. Subsequently, he worked in sales in Florida's construction market. He also became an Amway salesman in the Tampa area. He had one son. In July 2016, Heard was named part of a class action lawsuit filed against WWE which alleged that wrestlers incurred traumatic brain injuries during their tenure and that the company concealed the risks of injury. The suit was litigated by attorney Konstantine Kyros, who has been involved in a number of other lawsuits against WWE. Following his death, in December 2018, Kyros' law firm received a postmortem report from the Heard family stating he had suffered from Chronic traumatic encephalopathy, which has become common among professional wrestlers. Over a year after his death, US District Judge Vanessa Lynne Bryant dismissed the lawsuit in September 2018. In March 2017, Heard was hospitalized due to a burst appendix. He died on March 7 at the age of 68 due to complications following surgery."Former professional wrestler ‘Cowboy’ Ron Bass dies at Tampa General Hospital", by WFLA Web Staff Championships and accomplishments *All Japan Pro Wrestling **NWA International Tag Team Championship (1 time) - with Stan Hansen *Central States Wrestling **NWA Central States Tag Team Championship (1 time) - with Ken Mantell *Championship Wrestling from Florida **NWA Florida Bahamian Championship (1 time) **NWA Florida Global Tag Team Championship (1 time) - with Barry Windham **NWA Florida Heavyweight Championship (2 times) **NWA Southern Heavyweight Championship (Florida version) (2 times) **NWA United States Tag Team Championship (Florida version) (4 times) - with Black Bart (3), and One Man Gang (1) *Georgia Championship Wrestling **NWA National Heavyweight Championship (1 time) *Gulf Coast Championship Wrestling - Southeastern Championship Wrestling **NWA Gulf Coast Heavyweight Championship (1 time) **NWA Gulf Coast Tag Team Championship (2 times) – with Don Bass (1) and Dutch Bass (1) **NWA Southeastern Heavyweight Championship (Northern Division) (1 time) **NWA Southeastern Tag Team Championship (1 time) - with Randy Rose **NWA Tennessee Tag Team Championship (2 times) - with Don Bass *Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling / Jim Crockett Promotions **NWA Brass Knuckles Championship (Mid-Atlantic version) (1 time) **NWA Mid-Atlantic Heavyweight Championship (1 time) **NWA Mid-Atlantic Tag Team Championship (1 time) - with Black Bart **NWA Television Championship (1 time) *NWA Hollywood Wrestling **NWA Americas Tag Team Championship (3 times) - with Dr. Hiro Ota (1), Moondog Lonnie Mayne (1), and Roddy Piper (1) *NWA Mid-America / Continental Wrestling Association **AWA Southern Heavyweight Championship (2 times) **AWA Southern Tag Team Championship (1 time) - with Stan Lane **NWA Mid-America Heavyweight Championship (1 time) **NWA United States Tag Team Championship (Mid-America version) (1 time) - with Don Bass *NWA Tri-State **NWA Arkansas Heavyweight Championship (1 time) *Pacific Northwest Wrestling **NWA Pacific Northwest Heavyweight Championship (1 time) **NWA Pacific Northwest Tag Team Championship (2 times) - with John Anson (1) and Moondog Mayne (1) *Pro Wrestling Illustrated **PWI ranked him # 294 of the 500 best singles wrestlers during the "PWI Years" in 2003. *Ring Around The Northwest Newsletter **Wrestler of the Year (1977) References External links *Ron Bass biography at WWE's Where are they Now? page Category:1948 births Category:2017 deaths Category:American male professional wrestlers Category:Arkansas State University alumni Category:Deaths from appendicitis Category:NWA/WCW World Television Champions Category:People from Harrisburg, Arkansas Category:People from Pampa, Texas Category:People with traumatic brain injuries Category:Professional wrestlers from Arkansas Category:The Heenan Family members "
