Big Daddy versus Giant Haystacks: A Super Heavyweight Story | POST Interview

John Pollock speaks with author Steven Bell about his new book covering the rivalry between Shirley “Big Daddy” Crabtree and Giant Haystacks and the legacy of British Wrestling on ITV.

The book documents the rise of the Crabtree family through Joint Promotions, the impact of Saturday afternoon television on ITV, the arguments for and against Big Daddy’s legacy, and his rivalry with Giant Haystacks, culminating in their 1981 match at Wembley Arena.
