Thanks Peter, Hack.
Clearly his tag partner doesn't read this thread ... he would surely know.
I have happily included Johnny South now.
Ray Fury [Ron Wiltshire]
South was certainly around in 1969. I would have expected us to hear if anything had happened to him.
There are two criteria, Peter:
- he wrestled in the sixties.
- he is still alive.
Does Johnny South qualify?
Why is Johnny South in limbo?
Retrospectively Jackie Robinson should have had a place on this list
Should Johnny South be included?
