10 Greats From The Golden Age Of British Wrestling
7. Jackie Pallo
Jackie "Mr TV" Pallo was one of the greatest showmen of British wrestling's golden age. His long-running feud with Mick McManus was a huge crowd-pleaser and he was an expert at rousing the audience with daring stunts and outrageous displays of arrogance.
His 1986 autobiography, You Grunt and I'll Groan, was a controversial exposé of wrestling that for some time made him very unpopular with his peers. His extravagant nature also provided him with a good number of roles in mainstream TV, wrestling John Inman in an episode of Are you Being Served?, getting knocked out by Honor Blackman in The Avengers" and building a decent second career in pantomime!
