    I'm 55 yrs old, and Ron Garvin has been my FAVORITE wrestler since I was like 12 yrs old...I still watch His matches today...loved his rough, alpha-male, style...A REAL MAN in the ring...I loved when He would wrestle some submissive job guy, because He always seemed to really enjoy it

      Agree 💯%. Garvin is the best technical wrestler I've ever seen. His matches were always 5 stars. Criminally underrated.

    ronnie was the best. Started watching him when he was with icw. I liked the match when he broke Ox Bakers False teeth in the early 80s. Watched him on tv through out the years. Seen him take the belt from Flair. Then 6 or 7 years ago I nvited him on our radio show and he came on our show for a few hours and told us so many stories.The best radio show ever. Digger Doug says happy birthday Ronnie

    My favorite of Rons feuds was vs Jake The Snake Roberts . It was also the first time I saw him . He was a perfect foil for Tully Blanchard if you ask me . I had hoped to see Ronnie and Tully change ownership of the NWA World Championship . I imagined there being trouble in paradise when Tully Blanchard became lead dog in The Four Horsemen . But they did nothing with Ron’s title run . Which sums up where the NWA was at that time . Swirling the drain .

    Not certain, but Yvon Robert might have been the connection to Boston, for Montreal wrestlers. He wrestled extensively there, for Paul Bowser and held his AWA World title, defeating Danno Mahony. He went back to Montreal and he and Whipper Billy Watson were the big attractions. That would certainly create a conduit from Montreal to Boston.
