Gary Albright was a big, burly, legitimate amateur wrestler from Nebraska. He got his start working for Stu Hart out of the Stampede promotion and was married into the famous Anoa’i family of wrestlers.
With those credentials, Albright naturally found success in Japan, especially with the early shoot/semi-shoot leagues and later with All-Japan. Unfortunately, Albright died at the age of 36.
On this “From the Pages of the Observer” episode of the DragonKingKarl Classic Wrestling Show, Karl Stern looks back at the life of Gary Albright through the obituary that Dave Meltzer wrote following Albright’s death.
