He was bald and bearded as the Blacktop Bully. When was he ever a champion?
The pic above is when he was Krusher Kruschev. He was an NWA tag champ during that time.
Back in the grand ol’ days of the NWA as Krusher Khruschev he was 1/3 of the six-man champion ,Mid-Atlantic Champion, U.S. Tag Champion and could defend the NWA Tag Team Titles with Ivan or Nikita Koloff. With all his gimmicks he could have done the Mick Foley thing and kept going back into the battle royal.
By the slightly obscured Hammer and Sickle on his singlet, I’m guessing during his time as Crusher Crushev (sp?)
Krusher Kruschev
Demolition Smash
Repo Man

Seems legit.
You could do the same thing with Mike Rotundo, John Tenta, Mike Shaw, or Glen Jacobs.
