This New Zealand wrestler Jack Carter died in Florida recently. He was 90 years old. His real name was Johnny Lakey. He arrived in the U.S. in 1946 and got lots of work with Fred Kohler at Chicago's Marigold Arena and surrounding areas. He was unknown in his homeland as a wrestler but met Lou Thesz, Gorgeous George, Yukon Eric, Primo Carnera, Tony Olivas and all the big names of the 60's. Jack always called to visit when he came home and last time I saw him was in 1990. A great character, he lived in Florida for many years.
