Gary Will

Gary Will is a Canadian professional wrestling historian and writer.[1][2]

Career

Will is best known for writing the book Wrestling Title Histories, which is widely regarded as the most complete compilation of championship listings for professional wrestling. Many wrestling fans refer to it as a "Bible".[3][4][5] He wrote a listing of deceased professional wrestlers, as noted on various websites.[6][7][8] He is also known for his "Canadian Pro Wrestling Page of Fame", which honored professional wrestlers who are Canadian citizens, as opposed to the "Canadian Wrestling Hall of Fame", which honored any wrestler or wrestling associated person who made landmark contributions for wrestling in Canada.[9][10][11] [12][13]
