OX Baker

Ox Baker
fearsome legend of pro wrestling died today (October 20th 2014) at the age of 80.

My personal memories of Ox come from his years of wrestling in Indianapolis against Dick the Bruise and his various partners.  He was mean looking and ferocious in the ring with his heart punch.

Match of the Night (Lesnar vs Angle)

Inoki Genome Federation Title Match
Tokyo, Japan
June 29th 2007

Brock Lesnar was not the recognized IWGP champion at this time, he had refused to turn over the belt to IWGP after being striped of the title in June of 2006.  He soon signed  with Antonio Inoki's Genome Federation and was their first "world champion" using the IWGP belt as their title belt.  
This the title match for that belt and Angle's TNA title at the first card held by the Genome Federation.
