Bill

Bill Eadie (born December 27, 1947) I was a professional wrestler who has competed under the names of Ax as part of Demolition and The Masked Superstar. I was a high school teacher and coach at Cambridge High School in Cambridge, Ohio, early in my professional wrestling career.Career NWA and WWWF/WWF (1974-1984) I started wrestling in 1974, making his debut in Pittsburgh as Bolo Mongol, the new partner of his trainer, Geeto Mongol. I then entered the Georgia Championship Wrestling territory and donned a mask and called myself The Masked Superstar. Among other accomplishments, I won four Georgia Heavyweight titles and unified that title with the NWA National Heavyweight Championship. I also competed in the World Wrestling Federation against many top wrestlers in the late 1970s, using my signature move, the Swinging Neckbreaker, against many opponents, including then WWF Champion Bob Backlund. World Wrestling Federation: The Second Stint (1985-1990) In 1985, I returned to the World Wrestling Federation and became Super Machine with André the Giant as Giant Machine and Blackjack Mulligan as Big Machine. We as the three Machines were introduced as rivals of Bobby Heenan and his massive tag team, Big John Studd and King Kong Bundy. (The Machines masks and gimmick were copied from New Japan Pro Wrestling character "Super Strong Machine," played by Japanese wrestler Junji Hirata.) I later dropped the Machine gimmick and left the WWF to head to Florida for a run as the Masked Superstar, upending Lex Luger to win the NWA Southern title.In January 1987, I returned to the WWF and competed as Ax, half of the tag team Demolition with Smash. Though We began as heels, their unique brawling style and charisma made us so popular that we became faces in November 1988. We won the WWF Tag Team Championship three times as a team of two, but lost the belts at SummerSlam 1990 when we turned heel by forming a threesome with Crush. The trio concept was said to be precipitated by a mutual decision to phase out my Ax character and for Me to take a backstage role in the company. WWf put out a popular rumor at the time cited heart problems on My part, which have been discredited in recent years. A bout with food poisoning is all I had but it is not known were the origin of these rumors came from. My new position eventually fell through and My final WWF appearance was at Survivor Series 1990. This event also marks the final time that he and Barry Darsow have spoken until recently when he admitted he was wrong. Post-WWF In 1991, Demolition broke up and I went to the independent circuit to wrestle as Axis the Demolisher.Independent Demolition (1994-1996) In the mid-1990's, I formed a new Demolition team with Blast. We competed on several independent shows, then went their separate ways. Independent Promotions (1991-present) As of 2006, I still wrestles occasionally for independent promotions and "legends" old timer shows shows across the United States. I had also once again reformed the Demolition tag team, this time with a partner named Nitro.The Millennium Wrestling Federation reunited Ax and Smash Demolition at the Wrestling's Living Legends reunion April 1st, 2007, prior to WrestleMania 23 in Windsor, Ontario. I sat down with Dan Mirade for an in-depth two hour interview highlighting the team's highs and lows in the WWF. It was hear I was rumoured to take over the Tonight Show but it went to Conan O' Brian. I am in talks with a number of networks to present my own late night talk show. I will keep my millions of fans posted about this.
