Nick Kozak was one of my most favorite performers in the theater of pro wrestling in Texas back in the 1960s and 1970s. I first saw him wrestle and his brother Jerry whom was also a great performer back in 1959. I was only eight years old at the time. Nick and his brother Jerry make for an exciting tag team. Always appearing to be very well conditioned athletes and seemingly really nice guys. I would enjoy seeing more of Nick's performances for it brings back a lot of fond memories of the time in which pro wrestling was the way I like it and was a huge fan of it. Many thanks for the video!
Late 60s to very early 80s is the best....when it was MEN wrestling with the attitudes, and demeanor of 12 yr old boys, lol....I love this era, you just knew the wrestlers themselves were enjoying the rough-housing fun of it...it was more physical, the contact, a llllot more down on the canvas wrestling, a TON of dirty tactics/antics, and if you listened closely, the verbal banter in the ring, and the crowd, was joyously politically INCORRECT, which in my opinion, made it seem all the more real...and the jobbers weren't afraid to leave the ring with some aches and pains from "allowing" the heels to go a bit rough on them to excite the crowd, and I'm sure, the heel wrestling them...an era that if you were a "wimp" you deserved to be punished, humiliated, and defeated in the wrestling ring by a superior, alpha, heel...it was a more relaxed time when it came to stuff like that, and it's why this era of pro wrestling will always be the best...just a different mindset...I don't even watch anything after the 80s really, I just don't enjoy what its become
A cable channel in our area showed old reruns of Houston Wrestling in the early 80s. The first time I saw Gino Hernandez, it was in that mask, apparently in a rematch against Jose Lothario. I was a new wrestling fan and the idea of a mask with an attached wig was quite an attention getter!
