Billy Watson – Record & Cards (Great Britain)
(in Zusammenarbeit mit Ray Plunkett)
[Bild: http://www.wwf4ever.de/team/ronald/Billy%20Watson.jpg]
Drei Jahrzehnte lang war "Whipper" Billy Watson der absolute Heimfavorit in der Hochburg Toronto. Dann kam der 30.11.1971: Watson wurde von einem Auto erfasst und schwer am rechten Bein verletzt. Es bedeutete das Aus seiner Karriere, das Ende von einem der größten Legenden im Wrestling. Der zweifache NWA World Champion wurde Mitte der Dreißiger von Phil Lawson in Toronto entdeckt und trainiert. Damals debütierte er unter seinem richtigen Namen, William Potts. Die Legende vom Whipper entstand 1936 während einer Tournee durch England. Zusammen mit Harry Joyce, Tommy Nelson, Al Korman und Ken "Tiger" Tasker reiste Potts nach Europa und trat dort erstmals als "Whipper Billy Watson" auf. Erfahrene Wrestler wie George de Relwyskow pushten den jungen Watson jetzt, der gut vier Jahre in England verblieb und sich später als Megastar im Toronto Maple Leaf Gardens etablierte. Dort debütierte Watson schließlich am 04.10.1940 gegen Lee Henning. Als er im Juni 1941 Canadian Heavyweight Champion wurde, war dies auch der Start seiner zahlreichen Titelgewinne. Seine Bilanz spricht für sich: u.a. 15x NWA Canadian Open Tag Team Champion, 13x British Empire Heavyweight Champion, 9x International Tag Team Champion.
In Zusammenarbeit mit Ray Plunkett entstand dieser Record von Watsons Auftritten in England, die zum größten Teil aber nur noch als Cards ohne Ergebnisse erhalten sind. An dieser Stelle danke ich Ray für seine Unterstützung und für seine Recherchen zur Geschichte des Wrestlings in England!
