This is a GEM FIND Ernie Leonard was my uncle through marriage ( his brother Len Leonard married my dad's sister), also I am pretty sure the REF in this is ( Tony Bat ) who I went to high school with who was Steve Rickards Son ty so much for sharing this XXOO
I watched almost all the pro wrestling in The US and Canada and most of it in Mexico and some in Japan and Australia. And I must say, In the New Zealand territory more than anywhere they wrestle.
robert mamea check out the logo on the wall at 0:33 it's two wrestlers....but it looks like a "heel" forcing a beaten-up "jobber" to give him head, that's grasping at his leg in humiliating desperation
An absolute hullabaloo! Classic Ernie 😂
New Zealand's own territorial wrestling days, good stuff.
