OverviewThe dark secret of professional wrestling? Canada. By population, no other country on Earth has sent as many top performers to the upper echelon of the squared circle. But to this day, the Canadian origins of these superstars have been hidden or played down by promoters. Here, for the first time in print, respected wrestling author Greg Oliver blows the lid off the secrets: Rowdy Roddy Piper was never from Scotland, he's from Saskatche-wan; Mad Dog Vachon, billed from Algeria, was from Quebec; Abdullah the Butcher learned to use a fork in Windsor, Ontario; Val Venis isn't a porn star from Las Vegas but a wannabe helicopter pilot from southern Ontario.
