Matety Dave has asked...
What really happened next?
When the Dyke chap pulled the plug, how many of the wrestlers were able to survive as the audience numbers dwinded like a church of england congregation?
Was there enough work available in foriegien lands?
Many had other jobs and businesses, was that enough? how many missed the crowds WHAT REALLY HAPPENED TO THEM?
Did many end up like Steve Logan? How many finished up with dementia?
Rob Brookside, and others, worked All-Star and then supplemented that with the German/Austrian tournaments. Finlay the same I think, and Tony St. Clair, who also had his Japanese dates every year (so did Pete Roberts and others).
The Eurosport satellite TV station used to show wrestling from France, and our lads appeared on there, Haystacks for example. It also showed New Japan Wrestling and Tony St. Clair was often on that.
