turn from heel?
My recollection is that all-American Captain Lou was on the "faces" team on the Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n Wrestling Saturday morning cartoon, vs. predominantly "ethnic" heel wrestlers.
Albano Punches a youth in Framingham Loring Arena
Lou Albano was managing Tarzan Tyler the night Tyler was wrestling Pedro Morales for the Worlds Championship. Before the start of the match a young boy approximately 12 years old walked up to the ring side with camera in hand and asked Albano if he could take his picture. Albano jumped out of the ring and rushed the boy before anyone realized what was happening. Albano punched the boy in the face causing a huge gash in the boys chin. The boy was taken to the Leonard Morse Hospital in Natick and received 18 stiches to the chin. Albano skipped town as fast as possible.
