As SaxonWolf says Ruslan Ted Beresford was northern based, though did travel further afield on occasions. He was active for around a dozen years, starting in the war and seen here in 1953 against Jack Dale.
The Joint promoters mostly had a certain pedigree going back to the 1930s but a step away from the poor practices of that decade.
Relwyskow's dad was an Olympic champion that put on quality shows quite distinct from some of the dubious tactics used by some promoters, Dale took over from his dad, a boxing and wrestling promoter of the 1930s, Morrell was an Olympic champion, Arthur Green and Billy Best had boxing pedigrees. Arthur Wright seems to have been an outsider but obviously a shrewd businessman who could see the way the wind was blowing.
I was always puzzled as to why the above appeared in a US Wrestling magazine?, would any US fans have any idea who he was, or was it (perhaps) put together by his son, "Steve Clements", who was working over there at the time?

please correct me. AM I SEEING A BELT on this photo? Was Beresford a wrestler himself?
