George Scott

An accomplished wrestler in his day, George Scott’s main contribution to wrestling may have been behind the scenes.  He was the booker for Jim Crockett Promotions in the 70’s, but his main contribution in terms of Stamford would be his organizational and booking skill for the inaugural Wrestlemania and other television programs.   He wasn’t with Vince for a long time, but it was valuable service that he gave.

Dory Funk Sr.

Although both of his sons (Dory Jr. & Terry) far eclipsed his in ring accomplishments, Dory Funk Sr. was a decent wrestler in his own right.  Dory became a very effective promoter in the Amarillo area and made that region a hotbed for Texas wrestling.  His sons are already in the WWE Hall of Fame, and Dory Sr. would not be out of place with them.

243. Don Owen

Don Owen took over the Portland territory in 1952 and for a four decade time frame made it a reputable area for wrestlers.   Owen would become known as a great payoff man and develop the area accordingly and if Wrestlemania was ever in Oregon would have a shot.   Since it won’t, this is not likely to happen.

152. Dick Hutton

Former three time NCAA Champion, Dick Hutton became the NWA World Heavyweight Champion defeating the great Lou Thesz in 1957.  Dick Hutton was a technical master but in the televised age of wrestling was ill equipped to deal with the personalities that came with it.  He may have been World Champion, but remains one of the most forgotten ones ever.
