The Spoiler Turns To Poetry

In the 1970's The Spoiler was one of the most hated villians in professional wrestling. For a brief time he held the North American Heavyweight Championship. I remember watching the match where he lost the title to Cowboy Bill Watts. During the match Watts attempted to unmask him, but he fled the ring before his true identity was revealed. Two years later, he wore a crown proclaiming to be the "King of Wrestling." This was before the days of Jerry "The King" Lawler. For a brief time he had a tag team partner know as Spoiler #2. He also wrestled in what is known today as WWE and TNA. (In his day they were known as WWWF and NWA.)

The other day I was looking for information about The Spoiler and found he has his own website. Go to originalspoiler.homestead.com, and you will find his full bio, and he even sales Spoiler souvenirs.

The Spoiler's real name is Don Jardine. And these days he spends his free time sculpting, wood carving and writing poetry. You can find his works at poetry.com. When you go to that website type in his real name, Don Jardine, and a list of his poems will be listed.

Jardine is also writing a book about his 25 years in the Wrestling buisness. I am sure this will be a must buy for people who are wrestling fans and avid readers, like myself.
