Robert L. Howell wrote: J.C. Dykes once observed that three young wrestlers, Les Wolff, Bob Armstrong & Paul Jones, were working hard at their craft and if their heath held, and they maintained focus and kept their egos in perspective they would be among the top wrestlers in America in a very few years. He was right.
Les Wolff left Georgia in 1970 and worked in the AWA under his real name. Then he worked Oklahoma as Don Jardine’s partner under the mask as Spoiler #2. The Spoilers won the US Tag Team titles in 1971 from the Kentuckians and lost them to Billy Lyons & Tom Jones. The “Buddy” seemed to come in on his next tour which was Texas. He had big feuds with Wahoo McDanial and Johnny Valentine. He wrestled Bobby Shane and Toru Tanaka not to mention Thunderbolt Patterson. The fact he was winning matches against these guys made Buddy Wolff a big name. A tour of Omaha and Australia followed. The bangs mustache and name change appeared with him in Texas. The heel turn came in Oklahoma but that was masked his full identity change was in Texas.
