Wigan Council is 'exploring options' on how to recognise the life of wrestling legend the British Bulldog, but it is unlikely to be a star on his hometown's 'Walk of Fame'.
A petition for the Davey Boy Smith to be commemorated in this way has received thousands of signatures and follows the wrestler's posthumous induction into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2020. The campaign was created by fan Michael Finney and has since gained the support of the Bulldog's family.
Speaking to the Manchester Evening News about why he started the petition, Michael explained how much Davey Boy meant to him growing up.
