Manuale

Patrick Frary, noto anche con lo pseudonimo di "Rowdy" Ricky Knight (Norwich, 24 dicembre 1953), è un wrestler britannico, fondatore e proprietario della World Association of Wrestling, federazione con sede a Norwich.

Carriera nel wrestling

Frary, mentre stava lavorando come buttafuori, incontrò Jimmy Ocean, wrestler professionista e allenatore. Gli disse che gli sarebbe piaciuto lottare e incominciò ad allenarsi. Completati i primi allenamenti, iniziò a lottare insieme ad Ocean formando un tag team.[1] Negli anni '90 la squadra divenne famosa in tutto il circuito indipendente britannico con il nome "The Superflys". Manager della loro squadra fu la moglie di Frary, Sweet Saraya. I Superflys lottarono anche nella All Star Wrestling dove vinserò il British Open Tag Team Championship per ben 4 volte.[2]

Nel 1994, Frary e sua moglie Saraya Knight, insieme ad Ocean, fondarono la World Association of Wrestling, federazione con sede a Norwich. Ocean abbondonò il progetto l'anno successivo. La federazione include anche la scuola di wrestling "WAW Academy", la più longeva di tutto il continente europeo, dove svolgono la funzione di allenatori anche i suoi figli, Roy e Zak, anche loro wrestler[2]. Frary fa anche parte del roster e in carriera ha detenuto una volta il WAW World Heavyweight Championship e una volta il WAW Tag Team Championship insieme a Jimmy Ocean.[2]

Vita privata

Frary trascorse otto anni in prigione principalmente per atti violenti. Frary si sposò due volte, ebbe due figli dal matrimonio precedente e tre con l'attuale moglie Julia Bevis, tutti quanti wrestler professionisti: Paige (nata il 17 agosto 1992), Zak Zodiac e Roy Knight (noto anche come Zebra Kid).

Nella cultura di massa

Nel 2012, fu realizzato un documentario sulla sua vita e dei suoi figli dal titolo: "The Wrestlers: Fighting with My Family". Il documentario, nel 2019, fu adattato in un film biografico dal titolo Una famiglia al tappeto, scritto e diretto da Stephen Merchant e prodotto da Dwayne Johnson, dove Patrick Frary è interpretato da Nick Frost.[3]
