The House of Humperdink Lives!-Superstars Profile#173

 Sir Oliver Humperdink

Real name: John Jay Sutton

Hometown: Minneapolis, MN

A.K.A.: The Big Kahuna, Rooster Humperdink, Big Daddy Dink

Membership: Partners with the Army of Darkness, the Fabulous Freebirds, the House of Humperdink

Background: John Sutton came from the humblest beginnings. Much like Captain Lou Albano, he quickly saw profit coming from not running around in bright tights but arranging the fights. In the Midwest and Canada he made a small name for himself.

Heading south, he ran afoul of Lord Alfred Hayes and ending up the servant of Dusty Rhodes (who dubbed him Rooster)

He moved back North and became friends with Bam Bam Bigelow although the partnership wasn't a terribly profitable one. Humperdink split after a year with Titan after trying to managed Paul Orndorff back to stardom. 

He formerly retired in 1995.
