Having spoken with a distant cousin i am told we are related to the above wrestler. I know nothing of wrestlers, more into boxing. However. If anyone knows of this man. I have done a few searches. Many thanks

I do not know if this is his exact name or a professional one.

Wouldn't be Faulkner would it?...(quite a bit on him, google search)

Chris :)

Do you mean Faulkner (you've put Vaulkner).

Google search brings up the following amongst others

Unlikely anyone who knows him will look in on the boards.

Remember him and Bert Royal on the TV wrestling - same era as Mick McManus, Jackie Pallo and Steve Logan

Possible. Thanks as i said know nothing about wrestling

Vic Faulkner - Professional Wrestler - Bolton Revisited
www.boltonrevisited.org.uk/p-vic-faulkner.html
Vic's father Lewis Faulkner was also a wrestler, turning professional in 1935 and ... He travelled the world wrestling including Africa, Italy, East African countries ... wrestling on television - which was much more popular than the sport today.

Thank you so much for the information. Cannot wait to get stuck into this over the next few days

Youtube has some clips of Vic.just google his name.
