Immortal Wrestling pay tribute to the kate great Brian "Gold Belt" Maxine with a 10 bell salute.

Brian was British welterweight champ from 1969 to 1971 and British middleweight champ in 1971, making him the first post-war wrestler to hold championships in two weight categories simultaneously.

A regular on TV’s World Of Sport in the 1970s, Maxine was one of the greatest stars of wrestling’s golden age. He later famously became Debbie Harry’s wrestling coach, training the Blondie star for her part in a 1980s Broadway musical. After his wrestling career, Brian became a cabaret artist, recording three albums with Fairport Convention as his backing band. He appeared in the Roman Polanski film Pirates and went on popular TV programmes like The Kenny Everett Television Show.
