Giant Haystacks
Article Abstract:
Wrestler Martin Ruane, known as Giant Haystacks, had a number of jobs before entering the ring in his early 20s. He became a very popular entertainer, but his career effectively came to an end when ITV decided to stop showing wrestling at the end of the 1980s. He never became very wealthy, and after he stopped wrestling was obliged to take on a range of other employment. He tried to revive his career as a wrestler in 1996, shortly before he was diagnosed with lymphoma.
