Hope I can find help. Still working on my book about the wrestling history in vienna. Felix Kerschitz organized the famous "Heumarkt" tournament in 53 and 54. He had good contacts to england and used a bunch of guys from the UK. Next year he was replaced by german legend Gustl Kaiser. So in 1955 he started his own European championship tournament at the "Engelmann Arena". Beside his star O.K. 1 (Dennis Mitchell) he booked only local and unknown talents. But at the end of june I find a "Wood" in the papers. I checked the A-Z section and found a handfull with this name. Billy and Micky probably wasnt around anymore and for Roy and Alan 1955 seems to early. Not much known about Ken. Maybe the Wood here was non of them. But I count on you guys....
