Well Experienced A1 Lovelock sets a fast torrid pace. He is known as one of the fastest wrestlers in the business. Fritz Schnable is a past master at the art of eye gouging, skull cracking and mayhem, and his past bouts have contained plenty of these tactics. Rudy Valentino, also known as the “Peruvian Panther” is another ope of the boys who moves fast and furious. His actions are more on the athletic grace of a wild animal and can spring into sudden and fierce action with the same spirit and ferious ability of a beast of the jungle. Torrid Trainer The fourth mat star on the card is the well known “Leo the Lion” Newman, who in many appear ances has the appearance of a lion. Newman, who lives a realative quite life outside of the ring, can at numerous times get as rough as any man of the ring can. Leo seems to be the most enthusiastic wrestler on the card, for it is noted that his training rules and exercises are the most torrid of any of the big time wrestlers.
