The Human Earthquake
Tommy Mack was described as The Hurricane He Manfrom Doncaster, a Human Earthquake. He weighed around 10 stones and was said to be a bit of a whirlwind, a friend and training partner of Jack Pye. Tommy Mack certainly lived up to his nickname, Tommy The Demon (not to be confused with the post war Tommy The Demon.
We first came across Tommy Mack in 1932, taking part in a sports display organised by wrestler Douglas Clark. On that day Tommy was boxing, not wrestling, but his association with Clark may well have led to him wrestling in professional rings just two years later.
Tommy Mack featured regularly on wrestling programmes in Lancashire and Yorkshire, with the Tommy the Demon label attached, until the outbreak of war. In 1940 Tommy Mack disappeared from our rings.
