EXTREME WRESTLING LEGENDS: PUBLIC ENEMY-THE EXTREME ORIGINATORS RIP 2018 (AMAZON PRIME)

Another brutal look at some of the greats of extreme wrestling.

The episode looks at the tag team of Public Enemy, who wrestled in both the ECW and WCW back in the good days of wrestling. There are several matches shown on this program, but the one between themselves and Axel and Ian Rotten is a classic that has to be seen.

Public Enemy took the violence level up a few degrees and never failed to entertain those who paid to see them. The Public Enemy was Johnny Grunge (Michael Durham) and Flyboy Rocco Rock (Ted Petty). Both had been best friends for many years.

In 2002 Petty had a heart attack while driving to a show and passed away at the age of 49. In 2006 Durham died at the age of 39 from sleep apnea complications.

Both are gone now, but never forgotten in the world of pro wrestling.
