That's a good televised bill, Miquet against Saint would have been brilliant with an uncertain ending, McManus and Trood enjoyable with a predictable ending, Marino v Kumali a likely ending, but probably not so likely at the time.
Wrestling overseas, on this day in history, the one and only Mark Rocco (as the masked Black Tiger) was victorious against The Cobra (George Takano) in Montvale, New Jersey, USA, on this day in 1985.
Thanks SaxonWolf.
Kwango beating Iffland gets my head spinning.
