A lot of wrestling promotions and wrestlers these days should watch this video - Les and Leon don't come flying & spinning off the top rope but right from the start they are using psychology and have the crowd hanging on their every move, watch and learn!
Thee best British Wrestling match of all time, even after watching it dozens of times, its still as funny as ever! Brian Glover was such an awesome actor and entertainer! Great to see this match in full, my DVD only has the highlights! Thank you for sharing this classic in its full glory with us!
Yep - hard as fucking nails. There's that infamous story about how he suffered a major infection of the hand, and it got swollen with pus just before he was due to go out for a match, and he told a wrestler (I forget who) to stamp on it to burst the pustule and drain it out. The guy refused, until Kellett told him if he didn't do it, he'd break his thumb. The guy stamped on the hand really hard, blood and pus everywhere, Les just cleaned his hand up and went out, cool as a cucumber. Legend.
these to in the ring is pure gold and i think brian totally got how to work with les just amazing brian dancing round with his "hows about that then" and "you won't make a monkey out of me boy " and les just laughing his head of all the match wrestling today is missing the comedy gimmic les had it down to a fine art it saddens me to think when u think of wrestling from this era that most ppl think of big daddy who was a real ass hole outside the ring but les was the true hard man of wrestling
I love this match, both wrestlers are hilarouse and as far as wrestling goes there crowd psychology is spot on, if I was a kid and went to watch this match Id have been going nuts!! god bless both Glover and Kellet
I know the rules.

A dream match would be Leon Arras VS Sanitino Marrella that would have been hilarious

Great entertainment.
That old lady in the red almost epitomises the 70's era of the sport-total belief...

Les was born in 1915, so at 59, you're not far out!
killsville1972 2 years ago
Don't get me wrong, I think most people would like to be able to do that at his age. he's in good shape.
MickeyLove01 2 years ago
Yeah! To have that level of strength and fitness at that age is something special.
