MAIN MASK
he was a last minute sub on a number of occasions, he stepped in on a number of occasions at Newcastle City Hall. Can't imagine Larry as a Queen or even the bearded lady.
What a shambles if Black Jack had to appear as a Queen. Could only make sense in Pontoon.
The poster with its photos of nine wrestlers manages to make this look like a spectacular bill, but it's just a local card with Rylands Junior bringing up a carload from sarf London.
Always fun to see how they managed things.
But I do declare that Dale Martin had a policy of making you sit up and be pleasantly surprised at the quality of the sub (often Alan Garfield).
Bearded Larry as Queen can only come across as desperate or disinterested.
A query: are Ray's results (as referred to above) available online somewhere or are they only held by a small group of trusted people? I have some results which Ray used to send me by post at one stage but I know he did years and years of research after that. I wonder whether the fruits of that research are available more widely?
Mulligan replaced Barnes, unable to fit in the carload from Croydon.
Ray's results are confusing according to the bill but Max wasn't great presenting the card as was advertised especially in the late 70s onwards I wonder if Mulligan was a replacement for a 'Queen' that didn't appear.
By 1978 anything was possible. The Osts tag team sounds plausible. Maybe at one point Max planned a masked team and found a couple of handy photos. Fans were reaching the point they didn't care. Did Max?
David could have subbed for Vic.
If it is 1978, then this is what Ray had: 10th;HANLEY;Myers kod Walsh;Royal/David 2-0 Gay One/Mulligan;B.Ryan 3-0 Breaks;T.Fitzmaurice bt O'Sullivan
I can't tell from the poster, but that may be two photos of Iron Fist when he wore a mask.
