I made some alterations because somehow we ALL slept on the Sheephearders/Bushwhackers. Me included. Not all of us slept on em. The Bushwhackers started with the NWA New Zealand in 1966. The Kiwis (1966–1975) Luke Williams and Butch Miller started wrestling as The Kiwis for NWA New Zealand (later known as All-Star Pro Wrestling) in 1966, where they achieved a great deal of regional success. After working Australasia and the Eastern Circuit (Singapore, Malaysia, Japan), the duo was booked in North America in "Grand Prix" (Quebec, The Maritimes, Ontario, Vermont), a promotion owned by the Vachon family and Edouard Carpentier, in 1972 by fellow New Zealander Steve Rickard.

The upcoming Mae Young began wrestling in 39-41. Apparently, there's some confusion due to lack of records. So not quite as old as Blassie, but very close. You know you’re getting into the oooold school when their debut year is essentially impossible to confirm. Time to redo the list again! Thank goodness for vintage wrestling representation among action figures |

Vince McMahon. Started working as a referee for WWWF in 1971 before obviously buying it from his dad. Rest is history!

I’m actually really excited for this Figure because I can finally book him and make him wrestle like I wish he had. |
