Karl HEINZ

Gravesend Lightweight/Welterweight

 

Karl Heinz (a.k.a "Nobby Clarke") is a regular at the British Wrestlers' Reunions. Pictured below at the 2008 Reunion, he very kindly lent this site some "Wrestling Review" and "B.W.A News" magazines. These used to be sold at the wrestling venues, and contained photographs and articles about wrestling, plus the billing for that night's wrestling show.

To add a little extra interest, Karl was promoted as German at one stage of his career. He was also one half of "The Riot Squad" tag team, with his brother Kurt.
