Oh man. I grew up watching this guy. IIRC, Haystack died a long time ago.

May they rest in peace.

I’m old enough to remember Killer Kowalski and Haystack . Pro wrestling was a hoot in those days . I remember an urban myth going around that Haystack ate a dozen eggs for breakfast . Hehehe...R.I.P. Killer .

I saw Kowalski wrestle Bruno in the late 1960s in Baltimore. Legend had it that he bit off a guy’s ear in a bout in Toronto. That was long before Mike Tyson tried it. RIP Killer.
