Sorry to hear of his passing. I was a big fan of "rasslin" when I was a kid. When we first got TV back in the mid 50's it was a real draw.
I remember going to my first live match at the North Sydney Forum.
Hard Boiled Haggerty was fighting Pat O'Connor and Bunny Dunlop was the ref. A fan threw a raw potato at Haggerty but he ducked. It hit Dunlop square on the eye and dropped him cold. Nothing fake about that! :-}
