I don't know this guy ‘BULLY BOY’ IAN MUIR PASSES AWAY AT 81 Born in Lanark, Scotland, Muir was a hulking man, described as both a “super-heavyweight” and a “baddy with a fiery temper,” Muir was a big man who earned the Bully Boy nickname. He is known as one of the most disqualified wrestlers of all time, with cheap shots galore. Muir had a role in the popular British sci-fi film Time Bandits, released in 1981, fittingly playing a giant, which worked given that he was a big man, weighing in at 25 stone or around 308 pounds.

I remember the giant in Time Bandits, but I did not know until I read this post that he was a professional wrestler.

DARIO ‘EL NEGRO’ ROMERO DEAD “El Negro” Dario Romero, who was a part of the famous Romero/Youngblood family, has died. He was 83. Dario Romero was born on May 3, 1940, and grew up in southern California, and would be one of three Romero brothers in pro wrestling. “Rapid” Ricky Romero was a superstar, one of the biggest names ever in Texas. Both Dario and Albert Romero — who worked as the Oregon Lumber Jack — fell under his shadow. Dario wrestled for over 20 years, from 1961-1983. Over the course of his career, Romero worked for many different promotions, like M&M Promotions (MMP), NWAHW (NWA Hollywood Wrestling), and WP (Wrestling Promotions, Inc.). He was mostly Dario Romero (or variations thereof, like Mario), and was also known as “El Negro.” Chris, Jay and Mark Youngblood were all the sons of Ricky Romero, and therefore nephews of Dario Romero. The entire clan was presented with a Family Award by the Cauliflower Alley Club in 2015.
