Onslaught,
you'll help make sure we're around for years to come. Toss us as little as
a few bucks, or as much as your generosity allows. Thanks!

You know, when we have the 'is there a place for jobbers?' debate again, I remind you of Iron Mike Sharpe. A tip of a hat to the man that
was the greatest Canadian athlete. Good journeys to you.
I only signed up so I can read the forum.

2x NWA Canadian Tag champion.
Pacific Coast Heavyweight champion.
Mid South something Champion.
Joined WWF in the early 80's, was a Midcard heel and fell to enhancement talent as he aged.
This is about as good as it got for the Canadian, working Ivan Putski's comeback to MSG.

One of those jobbers that did the role right almost every time. Would get between the ropes to avoid a hold and make referee make the opponent back
off. Would pretend to walk away and make it back in time before the 10-count. Made the appropriate bellowing sounds when required. They should have
given him at least one win because he was good enough at his craft that the fans probably would have appreciated it as much as when Barry Horowitz
finally beat someone.
RIP, fellow great Canadian.
You are a bastard. A daughter-fucking wildling bastard.

In Post Retirement...
For those of you who were wondering what happened to him post retirement...kind of sad, actually.
