Chief Jay Strongbow

Luke Joseph Scarpa, known in the ring as Chief Jay Strongbow, was an American professional wrestler born on October 4, 1928 and died on April 3, 2012. He was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame. Strongbow built his career around a Native American character who wore a war bonnet to the ring and would go on the warpath when the crowd began cheering him against an opponent, although Scarpa himself was Italian-American and took on the persona to stand out from other wrestlers. His best known work came in the World Wide Wrestling Federation, later the WWF, where he was a four-time World Tag Team Champion, and before that he had been a standout in the Georgia and Florida territories of the National Wrestling Alliance.
