I FIRST SAW "NIK VOLKOFF" WRESTLE IN 1975- 77 IN THE PROVIDENCE-BOSTON AREA. WHAT A GREAT THRILL. HE WAS ONE OF "MY FAVORITES" BACK THEN, ALONG WITH "STAN THE MAN", BRUNO, CHIEF J. STRONGBOW AND KEN PATERA. ( I ALSO HAVE MANY PHOTOS I HAD TAKEN OF HIM / THEM ) "PEACE & LOVE" , BROTHER ! YOU WERE "ONE OF A KIND ", JIM

I am so sorry to hear hear of Mr. Peruzavic's passing. My condolences to his family. I spent much of my teens watching Nikolai Volkov wave the Soviet flag and sing their national anthem. Although he portrayed a villain I know that he was far from the character he portrayed for the WWF and was always one of my favorites. I feel like a piece of my childhood has gone along with him. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and know that he has touched so manny lives.
