‘The Man of 1000 Holds’ is frequently considered amongst the greatest technical wrestlers to ever compete in the squared circle. Revered across Europe, he debuted in 1958 and wrestled in conjunction with a pursuit in amateur boxing. On 3rd November 1976, Johnny Saint won his first of ten World Lightweight titles and would dominate the division until his retirement in Japan in 1996. Eleven years later, Saint would return to the ring, competing for the LDN promotion in the UK and more recently, he featured in the US-based independent group Chikara, where he competed in the King of Trios tag team tournament in 2009 and remained there until 2011.

I remember watching Saint when he came out of retirement and he was a class act. Totally absorbing in the ring and a nice guy on top. The word legend gets thrown about all too easily but that is the perfect word to describe Saint.
