t seems like every year or so we get a wrestling thread going, and the oldsters like us can reminisce about the good old days.

I remember all of the guys you mentioned, TB.
Here's a few more:

"The Golden Boy", Arnold Skaaland (never won a match).
"Cowboy" Bob Ellis (Bulldog headlock)
The "Fabulous" Kangaroos (Roy Heffernan, Al Costello, and their manager "Wild" Red Berry)
"Skull" Murphy and "Brute" Bernard
Argentine Appollo (a Rocca copier--white tights and wrestled barefoot)
"Sailor" Art Thomas (Big Black guy, with a tremendous physique)
Bobo Brazil
"Handsome" Johnny Barend & "The Magnificent" Maurice

And, of course, the announcer, live from the Capitol arena, Ray Morgan.

And, when announcing the card for next week...."The Dark Match. Positively not seen on television...."
