I used to watch it with my grandfather, Haystacks Calhoun was one of his favourites. He didn't like Brute Bernard or Killer Karl Cox much at all. https://youtu.be/_ph_1JJIMzs

I've been selling some saws lately, mostly ones I haven't used for a while. The 200's and a few others will be around for a fair while yet.

Only on TH could a thread about a mothballed climbing saw drift into a list of 70s and 80s wrestlers...I love this place!

...Bob Backlund, The Iron Sheik, Nikolai Volkoff, Sgt. Slaughter, Big John Studd, Chief Jay Strongbow, Gorilla Monsoon...

Haystack Calhoun with his enormous body size, had a patented move, called it, "The big splash". Worked every time.

I remember him well, man. His schtick was almost a brain-injured/"developmentally delayed" thing. Pretty non-PC looking back on it now...

Ze Googlé machine says that in his out-of-the-ring life, he was a highly respected HS coach with a stadium/field named after him! I had no idea.
