Colin Joynson was another globetrotter so he probably will get a mention. We have talked about him on other threads.

:wink: he certainly was and i seriously hope he does get a mention cos hes one top man in every sense of the word ruth

If everyone that 'deserves' an entry got in, we'd have a list of hundreds!

I think that's true Darren. Different people have different favourites and that would be reflected in the votes - yet so many wrestlers are remembered from every decade since the 1950s that the case for each would probably be a credible one.

However I'm sure that, if everyone compiled top fives or tens or whatever, there would be names that crop up in the majority of lists. It isn't hard to imagine Nagasaki, Rocco and George Kidd turning up on most lists to name but three.

i agree everyone has their favorites but im gonna come down on his side cos hes my dad and im sooo proud of him for all hes done in the wrestling world and all the suffering hes had and hes still smiling :wink:

I always used to enjoy watching Bulldog Joynson and everytime he was on World of Sport Kent Walton used bring up his nickname from the German tournaments , some thing '...panzer' meaning pocket tank which summed him up perfectly.
IMHO a great wrestler and very underrated.
