I think that bill is a good example of the start of the decline of wrestling's popularity - same faces, same matches and although I didn't see it probably more or less the same results

A wrestler named Danny Lynch Was not a man who would flinch From London to Dover There was blood left all over Blades or heads in a clinch ?

could this just be a misspelling ? Are(n)a

thanks everyone

zando zabu ?

HOW can a name like that fail to pull them in ?

Many thanks Ron. If anyone could find it, it would be you. Glad to see Gordon Corbett turned out for his old mate.

It was a funny case altogether, Peter. He confessed to his mother telling her a pack of lies and changing his story several times. H e had many details in his 'confession' wrong.There was no scientific evidence against him, no knife and the judge ruled there was no case for him to answer. He had been in care for four months and his mother had had to move house twice. Eight years later a man walked into the local police station and confessed. He was sent to a mental institution, I believe.

Many thanks Ron

tell us more bk

only as an amateur

Thanks Hack

Who is the unlucky man ?

I know there was a weekly wrestling columninthe late 1950s in the new Musical Express. Can this have been the one, Ray?

But who was Pete Pye?

Yes SW.He married Stephanie Blythe the world class mezzo who appeared at Covent Garden and the Met in New York. Apparently they met. when he was playing a non singing role at the Opera in Paris. I saw him both in London and Paris. He was a good blue-eyes here and in Paris as Batman but also in a maskas the villainous Zarak in Paris.

``definitely

In 1955 I must have seen Coverdale at Wimbledon and he was awful.

Now the White Angel v Al Hayes is interesting. Bob Kirkwood ?
