Nope. The Black Knight was a wrestler named Billy Anderson. He wrestled the indies in the 70/80s and trained Sting, Ultimate Warrior and Missy Hyatt just to name a few. He was also active as a Ring-Announcers and can be seen one on of the segments of WrestleMania II and the AWF Warriors Of Wrestling Shows.
@Ragehead91 He's also formed a "brother" tag team with Doug Anderson in California and Arizona, and is the godfather of Doug's daughter, Melissa (Cheerleader Melissa)
If the Black Kight was indeed Billy Anderson,it would expalian alot. Anderson was a local star in California who worked local indies and did jobs for the WWF & AWA. He also trained "Davey Meltzer".
Apparently, it ISN'T Dennis Knight under the mask. It's another jobber named Billy Anderson. There's a match with him unmasked vs. Buddy Rose from 1986. Davey Meltzer's real name is Adam Michaels.
Dave Meltzer at the time was a vocal critic of Herb Abrams. He didn't feel that Abrams had any idea on how to run a major wrestling organization. Over the years of the UWF's existence, it received endless "Worst" awards from Meltzer. Indeed, the Davey Meltzer wrestler was a drug-induced creation by Abrams to rib the journalist. Nice to see one of the many gimmicks of Dennis Knight.
This is wrestling or should I say Wraslin at its best. This is athletic,physical and high impact action here. Way better than anything WWE was putting out in the era and it rivaled the action of the NWA if you ask me.
this is so lame and fake.

Naming a jobber Dave Meltzer has to be one of the most blatant insider ribs I've seen, surprised Vince hasn't done it yet.

@wmlr1234 unless you count a randy savage match from the early 80's where he squashed a guy named "Kaye Fabin"

@wmlr1234 I'm surprised nobody has named a jobber Phil Mushnick

This was filmed two years before Glen Jacobs debuted. Besides that the body type and size are wrong. Try again.

To me this seems like a jobber vs. jobber match. Did the Black Knight get an kinda push in the UWF?
The Black Knight just really seems like a generic masked heel gimmick.
