[LionDen]

Could not find a AWA match from 1960 but got a bio on Hard boiled Haggerty who was in a lot of the matches above.

This episode features one of the classiest wrestlers of all time; Hard Boiled Haggerty, who also became an accomplished Hollywood actor. He starred in Harold and Maude and Paint your Wagons with Clint Eastwood.

Well Len Montana was an actor. He played Luca Brazi in The Godfather.
