Danny Boy Collins is an English professional wrestler.

[edit] Career

Collins made his professional debut in 1983 against Adrian Finch before going on to be a regular star of ITV's World of Sport programme. He has gone on to have a successful wrestling career in the United Kingdom despite an operation to have his kidney removed in the mid-1980s, using a high-flying style in his matches that was unusual for British wrestling at the time.

After World of Sport ended in 1988, he achieved even greater success defeating Mark "Rollerball" Rocco to win the British Heavy-Middleweight Championship in 1990 and Owen Hart for the World Middleweight Championship in 1991. He still appears regularly on the British wrestling scene to this day.
