CCW EP 8 - Lord Carlton

Wrestling Viewpoint Network

Welcome to the Wrestling Viewpoint Network; where we celebrate the Great American Art Form of Professional Wrestling, not bury it in dirt. WVN is not just one digital broadcast. This is a series of shows exploring, discussing, and celebrating wrestling from present day to well into the past. On this episode, Dan Farren was on location at the 49th annual CAC reunion and had the chance to talk to to the daughter of Lord Leslie Carlton. Lord Leslie Carlton (1914-1988) was one of the more colorful grapplers of the early days of television. Accompanied by his swami, Carlton teamed with Lord James Blears and battled the likes of Gorgeous George and Sandor Szabo up and down the West Coast. But his personal life was often as dramatic as anything that happened in the ring. His lordship's daughter, KK Carlton, spoke with Cal Classic during the recent CAC Reunion in Las Vegas. We discussed her father, his paintings and her music career. Follow the Wrestling Viewpoint Network, Dan Farren, and Ken Napzok on Twitter to join the conversation.
