Was he on Wheel of Fortune?
You can bet! Recently, former professional wrestler “Big” Bill Page appeared on Wheel of Fortune.
But his ability to solve puzzles wasn’t the only thing that attracted notice.
How did he do it?
Bill chose to share a little bit of his wrestling history with host Ryan Seacrest during his introduction on the Monday, March 24th episode.
As soon as he mentioned that his Hawaiian shirt had pictures of his six grandchildren, he put Ryan in a playful headlock!
Was Ryan all right?
Of course! Ryan appeared to be having a good time, grinning and even “tapping out” on the wheel in jest.
It took place during the Wheel’s Chasing Sunsets-themed week, right at the beginning of the show.
Tell me more about Bill’s history in wrestling.
After participating in high school wrestling, Bill joined the East Coast Wrestling Association and entered the professional ranks.
He even discussed his experiences with Wheel of Fortune’s Maggie Sajak, claiming to have done everything from getting slammed to off-the-top-rope maneuvers.
They even inducted him into their hall of fame!
Was there anything he won?
Yes, he did! With a cool $24,600 in cash and a trip to St. Maarten for himself and his wife, Lee, who was there to support him, Bill left.
Was the big bonus prize awarded to him?
Regretfully, no. He was given the letters “B, C, D, and A” and chose the “What Are You Wearing?” category. “_ A _ R / _ _ / _ _ _ T E / _ L _ _ E S” was the puzzle.
His guesses were “HAIR ON WHITE CLIPS” and “HAIR ON WHITE GLASSES,” but “PAIR OF WHITE GLOVES” was the right response.
When he lost the car, how did he respond?
Despite his apparent disappointment, he handled the situation with poise and ended by shaking hands with Vanna White.
When will Wheel of Fortune be available for viewing?
Wheel of Fortune airs on ABC weeknights at 7 p.m. local time.
