On this edition former ladies midget professional wrestling and Thief Riverer Falls native Marilu Walker aka Cuddles Anderson.

Originally from Thief River Falls, Minnesota, Cuddles lived a normal life as Marilu Walker through her teens. She was born and raised in TRF and went to elementary and secondary school there. She had no interest in wrestling and never attended shows. In fact, lady wrestlers were banned in Minnesota. In her late teens, she attended business school in Minneapolis and it was while she was there that she attended a few matches with her friend and got the opportunity to get into pro wrestling. She was trained by legendary midget wrestlers Sky Low Low, Little Brutus, Cowboy Lang and Little Beaver.

From there, Cuddles worked in Detroit for promoter Jack Britton and later worked all over the United States and Canada in the 1960’s and 70’s before retiring in the early 1980’s.
