As promised here's a couple of late 80s pics from Norwich Corn Exchange - latter day Pat Barrat in the 'Bonecrusher' era - even after his peak in foreign lands he was still a fantastic addition to All Stars heavyweights - saw him in a titanic tussle with Rocco, and also Quinn, Bridges, Bill Clarke. And also King Kong Kirk about to leave the ring after a match with Dave Taylor, John Harris the MC. Happy days !
Read his book 'Everybody down here hates me' if you can track it down..an under rated wrestling book that never gets talked about
Well done Norfolk Snake!
Ivor, Pat, Bonecrusher Barrett is more of a mystery than many a masked man, right under our eyes.
My impression is that he got too hot to handle in 1968 and sought the euros elsewhere. Or escudos or whatever.
Never peaked in the UK. Possibly a Finlay ten years earlier?
