Introduction

Pete Donaldson was in Blackpool for a wrestling show called Effie's Big Gear Bunch. He brought on Kendall Nagasaki, an openly gay British wrestler from the 1970s and 80s who went back to Japan with his friends. The pair were inspired by Japanese performers who wrestled in the UK and Europe in the 1970s-80s. Pete: "Kendall Nagasaki is very much a white guy, but he influenced me so much"
