Wrestling Heritage is a tribute site to all those who made wrestling Britain's most popular indoor sport. The site is owned by two fans of the 1960s and 1970s Anglo Italian and Hack. 

Wrestling Heritage offers evocative descriptions of those heady days when the stars that made professional wrestling the enormously successful spectacle it was, of the important lesser lights that helped those stars to shine, and the disciplined management that allowed the whole business to blossom.
