Just looked him up on Wikipedia . . .

 

"According to Dynamite Kid's autobiography, Pure Dynamite, Hindley was an English gentleman and a modest personality, as he was one of the few foreign wrestlers that did not negotiate anything at all, letting Giant Baba pay him what he thought was fair. Another story was a Japanese fan made him a ring jacket, but misspelled his name "Jhonny." The fan was so nice and generous to him that he didn't have the heart to point out the mistake and kept and wore the jacket."

 

Bless.

Now that's what I call a sold-out monitor! Bloody hell.

Andre The Giant and Frank Gotch

I think it's more likely to be Karl Gotch, as the filename suggests, considering Frank died about 30 years before Andre was born. ;)
