Sonny Fargo/Roughouse Fargo
Jan 24th, 2007, 7:49am  
I was lucky to watch MACW and Gulas wrestling as far back as I can remember but I was wondering did you fans that didn't get Gulas/Memphis wrestling know that mild mannered Sonny would go to Tenn. and turn into a wildman Roughouse Fargo to help his brother Jackie in a fued.

I would have loved to have seen them Sonny and Jackie team up.But I
could not receive any channels from Tennessee. The first time I knew of
them teaming was reading the results in an issue of Ring Wrestling in the
sixties.
 
Sonny was still wrestling lower card and tv matches for Crockett in to the
eary 70's. In one of Super Destroyer's early tv matches here in the fall of
1973,Sonny wrestled him on the High Point show.I always thought Sonny
did a good job as referee.

I have some tapes with Sonny on them if I can get them converted to dvd I'll post a match on youtube. He was awesome for a couple of shows bit the act wouldn't have lasted over a long run.

I actually have some Memphis video with Jackie bringing in Roughhouse to help him battle the Moondogs! Just seeing the Dogs sell for that skinny crazy a$$ Sonny is priceless!
