The late Mike Marino passed away in 1981 and he was the great sportsman of wrestling for so long and he appeared on ITV Sport since 1955 at West Ham Baths London against Francis St'Clair Gregory and he firm friends with Kent Walton.
The Great contest with Wayne Bridges at Crawley,Sussex and Mike won in round 4 and the crowds cheered both men with the wonderful wrestling skills as well in the summer of 1975,sadly no with us anymore.

I have just been looking at a list of known French Wrestling TV and Film footage (thanks yet again to Phil Lions).
Mike Marino appears to have been on French TV in 1950.
The other striking thing, looking at the list, is the sheer number of TV and film appearances of British Wrestlers during the 1950's and into the 60's. We must have had lads going over on an almost weekly basis.
