Down Thru The GOLDEN YEARS of BRITISH Wrestling We have Witnessed some-often very
Short-Lived-Tag Pairings! Usually 'Cobbled Together Sometimes more out of Necessity-'No Shows'
etc-and Regularly either Not 'Working' that Well or being Manifestly Unpopular with Punters!!
Also A Few Big Name Wrestlers didn't Like Tag Wrestling at all-BILLY JOYCE for One and also
JIM BREAKS!!-The Latter DID have a 'Run' at Tag with MICK JAMES in The BREAKAWAYS though
Well!-Here's That Same JIM BREAKS Featuring in a Tag Combo with a Wrestler at least 2 Stone
Heavier than him!!
The Formation of This New Team is Promoted via A Wrestling Programme Front Cover!!
Yes!-BREAKS's Partner is Non-Other Than BLACK JACK MULLIGAN?#!-What??
I don't Recall Noticing This Combo on a Bill at All!-Does Anyone?
They HAVE Wrestled Together in a 'Baddies' Team with BREAKS as Captain! but never seen
them Billed just the 2 of them!!
Can RON find ANY Example of BREAKS/MULLIGAN Tagging on ANY Show??
MAIN MASK
Mulligan tagged with a lot of others, but nothing too regular. Looking at Ray Plunkett's list Jim Breaks was his most frequent partner.
24th November, 1976 Royals beat Mulligan and Breaks at Buxton.
27th March, 1978, Steve Best and Tony Borg beat Mulligan and Breaks at Bridlington
13th October 1980 Royals bt Breaks/Mulligan at Halifax
8th May 1981 Alan Dennison and Colin Bennett bt Breaks/Mulligan at Carlisle
9th October, 1981 Alan Dennison and Kamikaze bt Breaks/Mulligan at Blackburn
8th June 1982, Alan Dennison and Kwik-Kik Lee 1-0 Mulligan and Breaks at Weymouth
30th June, 1982 John Savage/Mick McMichael 2-0 Mulligan and Breaks at Bridlington
5th December, 1983. Steve Logan and Danny Collins bt Mulligan and Breaks at Wembley
8th December, 1983 Alan Dennison and Danny Collins bt Breaks/Mulligan at Nottingham
Saw Mulligan tag with Jackie Pallo against the skinheads
Dare I say that all too many post-1978 bills had odd tag couplings?
