A major staple in the Pacific Northwest on both sides of the border, Dutch Savage would become a huge name as both a heel (predominately in the 60’s) and a face through the 70’s. He held the Vancouver and Portland belts multiple times, and was not just a huge name there, but would book and promote in those territories. Savage may not be known that well East of Montana, but his impact on the West Coast is undeniable.
