      I agree watch the show then my brother and I would wrestle each other after the show. Problem was a body slam actually hurts on a living room floor when you don’t know how to take a bump.

    Bill wrestled out of the Atlanta territory, he was a mid-card wrestler in Atlanta but was a main-eventer in Macon, Columbus and anywhere that Fred Ward promoted. He was one of the most underrated wrestlers of the sixties through the eighties. I've seen him wrestle hundreds of times, an excellent worker.

    There were a lot of Super Destroyers around all of the NWA territories (Memphis, Mid-Atlantic, Florida, World Class, Georgia etc) and AWA; Some of the more famous Super Destroyers were Don Jardine, Sgt. Slaughter, The Iwin Bros (aka The Long Riders) and my own mentor Kevin Jordan performed as The Super Destroyer in the early 80s in a couple of promotions. Also there were several jobbers who worked the mask too.

    Super Destroyer was Bill Eadie on Mid Atlantic wrestling. Don Jardine was the Spoiler and I remember one of the masked Assasins were unmasked by Jimmy Valiant. He turned out to be Hercules Hernandez. Mid Atlantic and Memphis wrestling along with Florida championship wrestling were the best wrestling anywhere in the 70s and 80s.

      Yeah... I've never heard Dromo billed at above 6' 3" and 280lbs. and that's likely an exaggeration. In reality he was probably 6' 1" or 2" and 250lbs. at his heaviest. I realize most wrestlers stats are slightly inflated, but you can't just add 100 lbs. and half a foot onto somebody. Doing stuff like that draws the veracity of everything a promotion does under scrutiny.

      Sgt. Slaughter held numerous regional titles early in his career and experienced his first major success in the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) capturing the NWA World Tag Team Championship with Don Kernodle. During the late 1970s, Remus worked the American Wrestling Association (AWA) territory under a mask as Super Destroyer Mark II with managers Lord Alfred Hayes and Bobby Heenan.
