[edit] Career

Briley started wrestling in 1977 in the Tennessee territory where he made a name for himself as "Nightmare" Danny Davis. He would also wrestle as one half of the masked Masters of Terror in the United States Wrestling Association.

As Danny Davis, Briley had a frequent tag team with Ken Wayne in the 1980s. At one time, they wrestled under masks as "The Nightmares". The duo also worked under masks as "The Galaxians" for WCW [1990s].

Danny Davis also had a brief stint during the latter days of the Central States/Kansas City territory as Tiger Mask, which occured a few years after Satoru Sayama's tour of the WWF introduced American audiences to the gimmick.

Davis retired in 1997 and opened Ohio Valley Wrestling.

He is the uncle of the former World Wrestling Entertainment and Total Nonstop Action Wrestling wrestler, Doug Basham.
