face painted legend wrote on 17.01.2023:

[8.0] "One tough man. A legit Guinness Book of World Records holder. A great wrestling villain in his day; both as a singles and as a tag. Ran one of the first outlaw promotions that I can ever remember to come along, ICW out of the Kentucky area. The patriarch of one of wrestling's more underrated families in terms of recognition; the poffo family. He was also one of the primary inspirations for the look of Hulk Hogan - because Ange always wore the canary yellow trunks and had that incredible beach tan that made the trunks stick out like a sore thumb, and that's something that Hulk will tell you himself that he took and ran with."
