I'm familiar with everyone on this card except the wrestler known as "King Kong" Gordon.  Would that be the one later known as "Enforcer Luciano", as I know he wrestled as Guillotine Gordon at one point.

I believe he was a local Carolina boy who was about seven feet tall and
was also called "Tiny" Gordon.I have a Florence,SC card from the same
timeframe billing him as such.
 
Enforcer Luciano did wrestle here in late 1972/early 1973 as "Evil Eye"
Gordon but as Mr. Landrum said this was not him in 1977.

Thats actually a pretty strong main event for a spot show like that. Especially a show that close to a big market like Charlotte. Thats a nice little show for Kings Mtn. Sure it was quite a good time
