If he was only born 3 decades or so later he might have been Otis.

Sad to hear about Rusty. One of my favourites and seems to be held as an all-round good guy. Great worker too. A staple in FPW on here over the years too.
His Rusty Bomb finisher (essentially a Vader Bomb) crushed some unfortunate young rookies over the years!

JOURNEYMAN DON SERRANO DIES Hector “Don” Serrano, a long-time pro wrestler and occasional promoter, has died. His name was not on the top of the card often, but that did not mean that he didn’t have talent. He did, oodles of it, as his peers related. The 5-foot-7, 220-pound Serrano was from Puerto Rico, and split time between his mother in New York City and his father in Puerto Rico. On occasion, Serrano was billed as a brother to Pedro Morales, though there was no relation. His name comes up in promotions everywhere, from Florida to Calgary’s Stampede Wrestling, from Montreal to Texas. His biggest run came in 1973-74, Ann Gunkel’s All Star Wrestling Association, where Serrano wrestled as Super Soul Davis. His manager was Rock Hunter, and he had a feud with Ray Candy. Serrano was also Hulk Hogan’s first opponent as the young Terry Bollea was learning the ropes in August 1977. Serrano was married to a woman wrestler, “The Mexican Spitfire” Olga Martinez, who worked for about a half-dozen years. They had two sons, Hector and Surans, and called Houston, Texas, home. Martinez was a hair stylist. Surans “Mike” Serrano wrestled for a short while, and Hector (born in North Bay, Ontario, while his father was wrestling for the Kasaboskis) became a well-known musician, in a band named HeX.
