We All know about CAGE MATCHES in the WWE!-We even have heard of 'HANDICAP MATCHES'- One-Heavier Wrestler-taking on 2 Lighter Wrestlers!........
But here's something REALLY BIZARRE!!............
Two Wrestlers Fighting a Bout-DOG CHAINED Together!!
Even more Surprising-for me anyway-is that one of them is the PEERLESS COUNT
BARTELLI!!-I'm TOTALLY Amazed he ever 'agreed' to do this??
Now on the other hand NO Surprise to me that the Opponent on this Occasion was TALLY-HO KAYE!!
How would they have 'Worked' this MAD Idea?-How would they have 'Ensured' the whole
thing just didn't descend into Utter Farce??
Don't get me wrong I think STUBBY KAYE was a Very Good Submission Wrestler-but REALLY? Which PROMOTER Dreamed up this one?
Well!-it's a WRYTON Promotion-AND Staged of all places at VICTORIA HALL HANLEY!!
And Guess What??-The Fate to Befall the Sorry Loser was....'to be DRAGGED round the
Ring by the Chain'!!-That would have been STUBBY then!
Think DALE MARTIN did loads of these!-ANGLO MUST have seen one??
Who else saw a 'Great' DOG CHAIN MATCH??
Poster to follow!
MAIN MASK
Alan is genuinely deaf and went to a specialist deaf school in Sheffield. His second, in the ring, who famously would use sign language with Alan, between the rounds (which Kent Walton often commented on), was also deaf in real life (Jimmy Lapper). Alan was known to be genuinely tough and strong, and worked on the nightclub doors around Sheffield (including a stint with Eric Cutler, and one with big Jim Moran, probably the safest nightclub you could go in with those two on the door!).
There is a story of him going to one of the annual fairs in Sheffield (before he was famous) and taking on a Wrestler in the wrestling and boxing booth and Alan winning the five pound prize.
Last I heard he was playing pool for a couple of pub teams in the area.
