I am a lifelong fan of "old style" professional wrestling.

I can't even look at the stuff that passes for professional wrestling today.

Do you happen to remember Fernie Moffett's "ring name" as a professional wrestler?

Best Wishes,

Dennis--Fernie was full of great stories and one never knew when he was kidding or serious, so I can't really answer your question. When I talk to my friend Tony Kozenski, who knew Fernie well, I will ask about this. Please have a nice evening. :lol:
