215. Dick Brower
It is hard to imagine that Dick “The Bulldog” Brower could ever be a good guy, but that was how he started in wrestling. It was not long before the promoters looked at the man who though was short in stature, had a wild look in his eye and the demeanour of….a bulldog. Brower would become a mid to upper card heel in the North east and in Canada and had matches of note with every face of note in those regions for twenty years. As he did have numerous runs in the old WWWF, this is not completely out of the realm of possibility.
