Without a doubt the Ultimate Warrior. The music, the running to the ring and the match v Hogan at Wrestlemania, icon.

Who remembers Joe Cornelius.

I do, but only because back in the late 70's & early eighties he ran the 5 bells in Chailey. It was our stopping off pub on route to The Goldstone from Tunbridge Wells. They used to sell Whitbread Pompey Royal which was very popular back in the day. By the time we got to The Goldstone we were all pis**d up, driver included, great days.

I used to go and watch the wrestling at The Assembly Hall in Tunbridge wells with a mate and his dad, so many to choose from but it has to be Les Kellett.
I remember a wrestler from The Caribbean and his stage name was..........Kid Chocolate. Fantastic.

I remember watching the tag matches when Big Daddy and some tiny bloke always took on Giant Haystacks or King Kong Kirk and other assorted massive baddies. The little guy would always get chucked about until close to death at which point he'd always manage to tag Big Daddy who would step in and wipe out said baddies.

And who remembers Big Daddy v Mighty John Quinn?

I'm also 105.....

Wasn't Jimmy Savile a wrestler in the 60's?

My favourite was Jackie Pallo.Les Kellet a close second.
Saturday afternoons just before the football results.

daddy v quinn

Seem to remember this was before the F.A. Cup final. Quinn had defeated loads of wrestlers building up to the match. Of course the event drew in the viewers who then watched ITV cup final coverage.

Hacksaw Jim Duggan for me . Used to watch it in the Hulk Hogan era and had a read up after reading this thread and really surprised how many wrestlers who were around then are now dead.
