Never a wrestling fan, though as a kid on a rainy saturday I might have watched a bout or two.

I remember a bout between some British bloke (not a name that comes to mind) and a Greek, named 'The Iron Greek'. Now I ain't got a clue if there was some sort of grudge between 'em, or simply that the Greek didn't have a clue as to what 'our' wrestling was all about but he took our bloke 'to the fecking cleaners'!

The bout was stopped when the Greek took off the corner padding and was smashing our blokes head against the corner bolts. When he was eventually dragged off, 'our boy' was pissing claret out of his nose mouth and the large nut shaped indents to his forhead..!!

It immediatley went back to 'ol Dickie D in the studio, and for once he didn't look to cool under his classic 'Mallen Streak' and kept apollogising, funny as feck.. :laugh:

Billy Two Rivers, a true mohican! His son may surprise you lot though, Wayne Hemmingway anyone?

 

I can remember watching the wrestling, Saturday afternoon, live from Doncaster, was a fight involveing Rollerball Rocco, who pulled his usual out the ring stunt, when some old bat jumps up from a rigside seat and lets fly with the handbag. My mum turned pale, screamed and then the phone started ringing. It was my grandmother asking if we had just seen her mother trying to level Rollerball Rocco with her handbag!

Maybe 20 years ago I sat next to an old guy on a long-haul flight,he told me he had been a professional wrestler on the circuit called the "Masked Mauler" his real name was george and he was from Milton Keynes :blink: He kept threatening to bite off my nose :D

I did once see Shirley Crabtree at the Sunderland Crowtree Leisure Centre when they had a wrestling night.
