Nick Gulas was a professional wrestling promoter and occasional wrestling manager based primarily in the Memphis, Tennessee area from the 1940's until the late 1970's.
Nick put everything into making the business successful and had very high standards, which made him gain a quick reputation as a no-nonsense disciplinarian. He played a key part in putting Memphis Wrestling on the map; introducing the likes of Jerry "The King" Lawler" into the sport.
Nicks legacy is slightly tainted for the fact that he relentlessly pushed his son, George Gulas, as a high-level performer when, despite his sizable frame, George's in-ring ability was severely limited which was obvious to the spectators and fellow wrestlers which caused a great deal of bad feeling and a near-mutiny. His reputation as one of the poorest performers ever to compete near or on the top of the card remains today.
