sheepherder luke williams beat robert gibson

Who would have thought there would be photo:



Seriously, I doubt that this is that match but, it slaps down SSteward's theory of the RnR always beating the Sheeps ;D

[bobbyryates]

i don't remember why, but butch miller and johnny ace both were in williams' corner for that match in greensboro. and neither one worked a match that night. seemed like a waste to have two people to bring in to just be there.
well, in JCP the sheepherders were misused (like who wasn't that wasn't in dusty's circle) so i can understand why phinney would think so.

Les Thatcher D The Menace

Could "The Menace" have been Les' tag team partner, James J. Dillon, under a hood?

[bobbyryates]

hey james, good to see ya!!
your idea about history went well elsewhere, so it should fit here as well. glad you had some 1/1 stuff. i didn't have anything i could find so i just put some 1/2 stuff out to begin with.

[ncjames]

We had one heck of a discussion of the identity of The Menace on the old KM board back before Vince found that new setup. I think we decided the main Menace was Killer Karl Kox but I dont think it was the same Menace all the time. Someone who remembers that thread better than I can hopefully refresh my memory
