Few British wrestlers are more respected the world over, than 'The Ambassador' Doug Williams. The highly decorated former two-time FWA champion in the UK, TNA X Division champion and tag team champion in the US, and IWGP and GHC tag team champion in Japan, enjoyed a 30-year career full of major moments and matches. Within this, was a two-year stint for the FWA at the Morecambe Dome, which included the historic night of June 18 2005 when Doug and Scorpio defended the GHC tag titles against Naomichi Marufuji and Minoru Suzuki – the only time the Pro Wrestling NOAH belts changed hands outside Japan. AND he was also the first inductee into the Morecambe Wrestling Hall of Fame! The skilled technician and originator of the Chaos Theory sat down with Greg Lambert to reminisce on his years in Morecambe and much more besides.
