And another Lord Mayor.
Late night Tibor v Rocca presumably to help the nation sleep.
Wrestling overseas today, Pete Roberts wrestled to a time limit draw, against Herman Iffland, in Frankfurt, Germany, on this day in 1976.
On our TV screens, on this day in 1971:-
Tibor Szakacs (1) v Antonio Rocca (1) (midweek, late night TV show)
Never heard of a Mick Mamanus.
05 May 1962
Mick McManus wrestled Jackie Pallo prior to the FA Cup Final.
Paul Darton. Mrs Darton’s little boy.
That's intriguing. Paul Darton probably not a wrestler, seemingly a member of staff at the hospital, perhaps fulfilling a dream? He must have done ok in the first encounter.
Not hard to imagine him scoring the winning fall over Syd.
A real case of the three wrestlers being bought off and jobbing for the good of the whole show. It reminds me of the Pathe Newsreel of McManus and Logan jobbing to Nicholas Parsons for charity.
Continuing with wrestlers you've never heard of:
Wrestling overseas today, Steve "Wonderboy" Wright beat Tony Rocco, in Los Angeles, California, on this day in 1974.
On our TV screens, on this day in 1965: -
Bobby Steele v Alan Miquet
Steve Veidor v Syed Saif Shar
Good old Ted he even promoted a towns mayor into a Lord Mayor,you know my thoughts on Two Rivers.
