Chillicothe Ohio’s favorite son “The Fantastic” Bobby Fulton will be inducted into the Ohio Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame on Saturday March 9th at The Reunion 3!

Bobby started his career June 17th, 1977, although he’d retire December 14th, 2019, Bobby is still involved in the professional wrestling industry, being part of the NWA, standing in his son Jarron’s corner in his matches, and helping his son Dillon produce the pro wrestling fan fest events in Ohio. 

As a young teen he’d help set the ring up for Hank Vest’s territory in southern Ohio, here he’d come across future friends such as Roger Vest and Killer JD Kent. 

Bobby began his career with the likes of Flying Fred Curry, Wild Bull Curry, Dr. Jerry Graham, and others. 

In 1977, he’d co-found Big Time Wrestling with his father Ohio Professional Wrestling Hall of Famer Big Jim Hines. 

Bobby would be part of the world renowned tag team The Fantastics, alongside Tommy Rogers, in which they’d wrestle in NWA, WCW, Mid-South Wrestling, Jim Crockett Promotions, World Class Championship Wrestling, All-Japan and more, winning championships everywhere, having rivalries with other greats such as Jim Cornette’s Midnight Express, The Sheepherders, John Tatum & Jack Victory, Eddie Gilbert & Sting, Arn Anderson & Tully Blanchard and more!

In 2020, Bobby would fight valiantly against his greatest rival, throat cancer, ultimately winning his battle with it, he has became an inspiration to all. 

In Chillicothe when little kids are growing up and they share their dreams and aspirations in life, Bobby is pointed to as the example of how dreams can become a reality. Bobby has been honored throughout the town and the world with action figures, comic books, and murals, now we honor him with the induction into the Ohio Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame!
