Hello, I am looking for some information about a former athlete named Jack Veneno and wanted to know if anyone knew how I could go about this. He lived in Santo Domingo, as far as I knew, and was involved in professional wrestling between the 1960s and '80s. He was very popular throughout the Caribbean.
I wanted to know if there was any way I could find out when he was born, his height/ weight, what his major achievements were...was he involved in the promotions of wrestling in the Dominican, if he was involved in training other wrestlers and basically anything else. Does anyone know if newspapers covered a September 1982 incident where a gunshot in a Santo Domingo match ended with Veneno winning the World Championship? I would like more information about that incident, if possible. Is there a library I can contact...or possbily contact Mr. Veneno himself. Maybe a sports editor who speaks English, because my Spanish is not too good.
Thanks in advance.
