Mickey McMasters

Mickey McMasters was a standout wrestler at Whittier High School in Whittier, California; he turned professional and worked the wrestling rings, auditoriums and gymnasiums for several years. By the 1930s, despite working as an embalmer in a Long Beach mortuary, he moonlighted as a wrestling referee; was sometimes engaged as a physical trainer, stuntman, or as a consultant in motion pictures involving wrestling; and would travel to various venues delivering talks on professional wrestling for the benefit of the uninitiated.
