Never heard of him til now, sounds like an interesting rassler, though.
I imagine different parts of the country had their regional wrestlers that were local stars from the 1950s-70s.
The 60s was a big era for local wrestling , at least in my neck of the woods in the Upper Midwest. One of the big draws was “The Crusher”, ya had to love the guy:

Rest in Peace, Paul Jones.
I only remember him as a manager in the mid-80’s. Being from the Boston area,we never saw any of the NWA wrestling before cable tv.
