I remember him as well. My sister watched these guys all the time. I remember Junkyard Dog especially. Probably because he would howl a bit during his act.

He was a classic.

Used to watch him when I was a kid:

Could not find a match with him, but found one of an
early Bret hart.

You know you're getting old when folks start calling classic that you remember as being the new guys.

Chief Jay Strongbow
Professor Tanaka
Andre the Giant
Bruno Sanmartino
Gorilla Monsoon

Now THOSE guys are the classics!

Gorgeous George, he had a restaurant on on Ventura Blvd. and it was painted bright purple. Wild Red Berry, Dr. what's his name???? had the near fatal "Sleeper Hold". Ahhh back in the days when fake wrestling was real.
