With all the biggest and best wrestlers from the era Jackie Pallo, Mick McManus, Les Kellett, Pat Roach, Kendo Nagasaki, Giant Haystacks & Big Daddy.

    Arghh, childhood memories. I used to get threatened with if I wasn't good I couldn't watch wrestling! & that was enought to stop me in my tracks. Mum used to work on a Saturday so my brother dad & I would all watch it. Giant Haystacks & Big Daddy where my faves I remember hating it when they had to fight each other once though & I was saddened when Big Daddy died when I was in my teens!.
    Americas fake wrestling is not a touch on this!!!
