329. Dutch Savage

A major staple in the Pacific Northwest on both sides of the border, Dutch Savage would become a huge name as both a heel (predominately in the 60’s) and a face through the 70’s. He held the Vancouver and Portland belts multiple times, and was not just a huge name there, but would book and promote in those territories. Savage may not be known that well East of Montana, but his impact on the West Coast is undeniable.

259. Bulldog Bob Brown

Predominantly a heel throughout his thirty years plus in the ring, “Bulldog” Bob Brown was a consistent figure in the Midwestern and Canadian territories. Actually, his look was always consistent with his mean face, brush cut and black trunks. Brown was also a booker numerous times in his career, usually in the Central States territory. Had he ventured more East of the Mississippi, he might be remembered more than he is currently.

105. Cowboy Bob Ellis

One of the first to don the “Cowboy” monikers, Bob Ellis was actually a legitimate cowboy. Ellis was a rough customer who was part of sell outs all across the country, not to mention successful stints in Australia. He deliberately seemed to maintain a low profile after he left the industry, which may be why he is not held in the regard that he probably should be.

185. Newton Tattrie

The name of Newton Tattrie, may not be one that the average WWE fan knows, or for that matter, one the fan of the product forty years ago would be familiar with, but as one of the “Mongols”, Tattrie scared fans and had a successful run in the WWWF in the early 70’s.
