Randy Colley

Georgia Championship Wrestling (1982–1983)

He next appeared in Georgia Championship Wrestling (GCW) with Spot. The Moondogs made their debut on October 25, 1982, in a match at the Omni against Brad Armstrong and Tito Santana. The Moondogs would continue with the promotion for the next three months, wrestling The Wild Samoans and various combinations that included Stan Hansen.

Continental Wrestling Association (1983–1984)

Both Moondogs then moved to the Continental Wrestling Association (CWA), where they were embroiled in a feud with The Fabulous Ones (Stan Lane and Steve Keirn) after ripping up their jackets, which were given to them by Jackie Fargo.

Return to the World Wrestling Federation (1984–1985)

The Moondogs returned to the World Wrestling Federation in 1984, during the midst of its national expansion. For the next few months, they were programmed into a house show series against the newly-arrived Fabulous Freebirds (Michael Hayes, Terry Gordy and Buddy Roberts) and later the Brisco Brothers (Jerry and Jack).

Mid South Wrestling (1985)

Following his WWF departure, Colley made his debut for Bill Watts' Mid South Wrestling Federation (UWF) as The Nightmare and was given a substantial push under the guidance of Eddie Gilbert. Again paired with Spot, they suffered losses to established teams including The Rougeau Brothers (Jacques and Raymond) on Prime Time Wrestling, Tony Atlas and Pedro Morales, the U.S. Express (Barry Windham and Mike Rotunda) and WWF World Champion Hulk Hogan and Paul Orndorff on WWF Championship Wrestling. Despite having his hair trimmed, his beard shaved off, and wearing face paint, fans almost immediately recognized him and began chanting "Moondog" when he entered the ring. As a result, he was replaced with Barry Darsow. Colley made a one-off return on November 26, 1988, wrestling as "The Shadow" in a loss to Boris Zukhov.

In 1994, Colley was called as a prosecution witness at the Vince McMahon steroid distribution trial in Long Island, New York.

Continental Championship Wrestling (1988–1989) After a stint with Stampede Wrestling under his real name, He continued to appear on televised programs and house shows into the spring of 1991. In May, World Championship Wrestling (WCW) created a stable known as "the Desperados", consisting of Dutch Mantell, Black Bart and Colley, who played "Deadeye Dick". The Desperados were portrayed as three bumbling cowboys hoping for Stan Hansen to join WCW and team with them, being promoted through a series of vignettes in which they were beaten up in saloons, searched ghost towns, were jailed and rode horses. However, this storyline was short-lived as Hansen wanted no part of it and left for Japan.

After leaving WCW, Colley would take a hiatus form wrestling for a couple of years. He briefly reunited with Demolition Ax (Bill Eadie) and his "New Demolition" partner Blast (Carmine Azzato) on the independent circuit before the WWF sent Eadie a cease and desist letter.

Smoky Mountain Wrestling (1993–1994)

From November 1993 to March 1994, Colley reunited with Spot as the Moondogs in Smoky Mountain Wrestling (SMW), engaging in feuds with The Rock 'n' Roll Express and The Bruise Brothers while splitting their time between SMW and the United States Wrestling Association (USWA).

United States Wrestling Association (1994–1996)

The Moondogs joined the USWA full time in March 1994 and began a feud with Jerry Lawler and Brian Christopher, quickly winning the USWA World Tag Team Championship from Billy Joe Travis and The Spellbinder. They would lose the titles later that year, but regained them on October 24 against The Phantoms. In November they lost and then regained the titles from The Bruise Brothers.

The Moondogs entered 1995 having lost the USWA titles once more and entered a tournament to crown new champions; they wrestled The Rock 'n' Roll Express to a no-contest in the finals at the Mid South Coliseum on January 9, 1995. That spring they would feud with Crusher Bones, Jack Hammer, and Big Daddy Cyrus. Their run in the company ended that year with a match at the USWA's Mid South Memphis Memories II card, where they were defeated by The Fabulous Ones.

In 1996 the duo returned once more, defeating Jimmy Harris and Ron Harris at the Mid South Coliseum on January 2. In April 1996 they began to feud with former WWF Tag Team Champions Men on a Mission, the latter on loan from the WWF. On April 22, 1996, the Moondogs defeated Men on a Mission via pinfall at the Mid South Coliseum. In June the Moondogs were booked into a tournament to crown the USWA's Southern Tag Team Champions, but were defeated by Brickhouse Brown and Reggie B. Fine in the first round. In the summer, the Moondogs regained the USWA Tag Team Championship for a final time. The Moondogs left USWA that fall, a year before the promotion closed its doors.

Later years and death Colley retired from wrestling in 1997 to operate a bail-bond company with fellow wrestler David Schultz.
