Been years since I posted a wrestling video, but hey.
This one is from a fan recorded super 8mm film I purchased back in the 1970's. There is no sound nor was the finish of the match recorded but it does look like Bruno won the match. Want to add that Danny's brother, Dr. Big. Bill Miller is at ringside. Bill was a former AWA world heavyweight world champion at some point while wrestling under a mask as Mr. M.
Danny Miller was a popular singles wrestler in the 1970's in parts of Ohio and Michigan while working for Ed Farhat's (The Sheik) NWA promotion and was known as "Ohio's favorite son, Dandy Dan Miller."
Danny wasn't so popular in all parts of Ohio. Wrestling for Johnny Power's NWF promotion in Cleveland, Ohio Danny was a villain and feuded with baby face wrestlers such as Cleveland Browns defensive tackle, Walter Johnson, who had started wrestling in the off season. At one point they actually took their feud to the Cobo arena in Detroit and worked a match for Farhat's NWA promotion and was shown on all of the promotions TV channels. The match between Danny and Walter was so weird.
Apparently, Danny and Walter used the same script they used for their NWF feud with Danny being over powered by Johnson and acting like the typical cowardly heel. It was so out of character for Danny Miller and just an all around odd match for Ohio's favorite son.
RIP Dandy Dan Miller.
