I was wondering if anyone remembers a wrestler called the mighty tonka (Ivor Smith) he used to wrestle in the late 60s early 70s with roy yeates from oxfordshire
This is a very odd Wembley bill. Klondyke and Toma from Scarborough, Cooper, Shade, Ray and Knowles from Yorkshire. Red Cloud could be anyone but there was a North east lad used the name.
Which leaves only Tony Yeates who i think came from Oxfordhire or Somerset way. He's the odd one out.
I dont really know a lot apart from what he was called and he used to come to the ring with a tonka truck he was a tag team partner of roy yeates in the late 60s early 70s he was from oxfordshire just trying to see if anyone remembers anything
Roy and Tony Yeates are brothers.

Matey Dave says:
If anybody is interested the venues was the old Odeon Cinema Sudbury in Wembley
I think that is Roy's brother
Two very difficult names to find. I should imagine that this is Yeates. Change of Christian name pretty common or are you mistaken.

Apparently not greatly remembered. Tell us more.
