Post by: Karl Kox on January 28, 2009, 10:18:14 PM
Here are some pics My mom or myself has taken over the past few years at wrestling get togethers or Autograph shows and stuff like that.  I hope every one enjoys them.  I have a lot more I just have to find them.

Great stuff, Karl.

yeah I know.  What is great to me is when I was a kid and we would be back stage at a WWE event and wrestlers like The Undertaker and Scott Hall would be in aw of my dad that was always real funny to me.  They marked out to him like I marked out to them at the time.  It was real cool. To here the whispers of the guys in there saying  " hey that Killer Karl Kox over there" and stuff like that.  They all grew up watching him like I watched them

Awesome pics, Karl.  Even though I don't watch wrestling these days, pics like these remind me of why I used to be so into it.  I grew up watching Mid-Atlantic, then Georgia Championship once we got cable.

Ha ha heres a funny pic.   Me trying to fill my old mans shoes.  I would lace up a pair of his wrestling boots and walk around the house all day when I was a kid.  They were so big I would put my shoes inside of them so they would fit. Look at me I was hitting most musculars even back then.

This is one from one of the reunions in the mid 90's

My old man, Mad Dog Vachon, Johhny Valintine, and Reggie Parks.
He made all the wrestling belts.

They gave my old man The Golden Crow Bar for being stiff in the ring

Post by: Karl Kox on January 30, 2009, 05:01:14 PM
they also gave him the golden potato for throwing the most potatos.  In wrestling if you potato someone you accidently hit them for real.

Could you please point me to these threads to learn a bit more about him and before asking you things are already answered?

Nice pictures, your dad surely lived the wrestling dream and you are with no doubt, the right person to mod this board. So long here and never realized who you are.

my respect for you and your dad


ps: sorry but i cant resist to comment your dad's tshirt "KKK"  ;D

Post by: Karl Kox on February 03, 2009, 08:38:11 AM
LOL that why he did it.  It got him a lot of heat.  I still have all his ring jackets and vest with the triple K's on them. Ask any thing you would like I will be happy to answer

For a short period of time my old man wrestled in Japan as the Spirit.  It was Babas idea. My old man said the dumb thing about it was all the fans knew it was him.  He would wrestle sometimes twice that night once as Killer Karl Kox the other as the Spirit.  He said he only took the one color tights and boots ( probably 2 diffrent colored ones) with him on that trip and thats what made the whole thing stupid but he wanted to get paid so...

This is where they dropped one of the Atomic Bombs.  He said that the Japanese reporters wanted him to act like he was praying so they could take a picture.   He told them only if he would go to Pearl Harbor and pray there.   He had a brother that was stationed there and got messed up  .
